"America is probably the only country to have tree-huggers, vegetarians, gay people, animal rights groups, environmentalists, and other crazy groups."
HAHAHA So closed minded.
There are so many of those all over the world. Deal with it buddy. I agree those damned conspiracy theories suck. But thinking that all those groups you listed should go away is just ridiculous.
America is a 2 party country with freedom of speech. DEAL WITH IT buddy.

Aren't people convicted of 'conspiracy' and sent to jail all the time? If small-time crooks can do it why in the world would you think it somehow just magically stops at a particular level!? Big-time crooks engage in BIG conspiracies and unlike the small fish, have the resources to cover it up effectively leaving only speculation by the 'theorists'. How many of these 'debunkings' have you actually investigated for yourself? Or are you taking someone's word for it?
What's the 'sensible' mindset? Just blindly believe whatever the Powers That Be tell you? What a sheep you are!

Your question seems to make several invalid assumptions, but I'll answer the first part.
Conspiracy theorists will go away when conspiracies go away.
Conspiracies will go away when the reasons to conspire go away.
Reasons to conspire will go away when governments cease to have private agendas, and actually do what they are employed to do.
This will occur only when we have true democracy returned.
There is far too much power in far too few hands. Local government needs to have greter power, and central government far less.
If we had tiny constituencies of 500 or so households, who were totally responsoble for their own well-being, with no oversight from any outsiders, then we would have true democracy, no conspiracies, and no conspiracy theories.
Until such time, it is essential that the criminal nature of successive governments is examined and publicised..
It takes a really faithful person to say that there has never been a conspiracy within government.
In fact that level of faith would only occur in someone whose facilities of critical analysis had ceased to function completely.
There are conspiracies. They are real. They do exist. Not all of them , but some. And the level of conspiracy is sometimes at such an incredibly high level that it is really difficult to believe, unless you have become familiar with the concept that some conspiracies really do exist.
The part of your question which makes invalid assumptions is that all the things you mention apply to USA only. In fact, they apply to every country.

conspiracy theories are annoying. they don't go away because they become impossible to disprove. every time evidence is offered to disprove a conspiracy theory, it is always possible for the theorist to deny that evidence by claiming it is fabricated/part of a cover-up. its the nature of conspiracy theories that they are impossible to disprove. while believing them may take a big stretch of the imagination, their indisprovable ensures that there will always be believers.
that being said, i would take issue with the last part of your question. "america is the only country to have tree-huggers, vegetarians, gay people, animal rights groups, environmentalists, and other crazy groups." ummm these groups exist in many other countries. in fact america probably has a lower proportion of people belonging to each of these groups. is it crazy to care about the environment? is it crazy to be concerned that the food you eat is the result of a lot of suffering? if it is, then it sounds like its the common-sense mainstream that needs to change.

They never do, and they never will, because no matter who is in charge, the people who don't like them are always looking for ways to make them look bad.
Remember, Clinton was supposed to have had a couple of people killed to hide his Whitewater deal, got some teenage girl pregnant, etc. Bush has had to face a lot more theories, but at least he hasn't had to face a Special Prosecutor running roughshod over life.
Besides, every now and then, we find out that the conspiracy is TRUE. Remember, Watergate was just a consiracy theory cooked up by a couple of crackpot Washington Post reporters.

it rather is his life, expensive. He can do regardless of he needs. i think of it rather is surprising that he has replace right into a Christian. i'm a conspiracy analyst. dissimilar conspiracy theories are BS. case in point, the moon touchdown "conspiracy." it is not a foul conspiracy concept, even yet it does not face up to scrutiny. we actually did actual land on the moon, and evidence useful of this are the retroreflectors on the lunar floor. Tupac's loss of life is a secret. I doubt the NWO had something to do with it. Michael Jackson died of organic reasons. So did Brittany Murphy (RIP Brit). Catholics are no longer "undesirable." they are reliable people, and that i evaluate them to be Christian. it may be available that the Catholic church might have some below holy issues happening. the subsequent pope may well be the Antichrist, yet I even have in trouble-free terms heard one individual declare that. it rather is in trouble-free terms a hypothesis. I even tend to have self belief that 9/11 might have been an interior activity. I do have self belief that the NWO replaced into in contact. I do suspect that the NWO might have killed Kennedy. yet there is not any definitive evidence. Unanswered questions stay approximately 9/11. dissimilar questions, actual. that doesn't unavoidably mean that 9/11 replaced right into a conspiracy- even yet it would advise that some thing foul went on, and that our government might have had previous awareness, yet did no longer something to stop it from happening. dissimilar all of us is suspicious approximately 9/11, because of the fact dissimilar unusual issues happened touching directly to it. case in point, why did international commerce midsection 7 fall? It does not make any experience. A plane did no longer strike WTC 7. A mysterious hearth burned WTC7, yet that does no longer reason it to break down because it did. in step with risk your chum is going overboard. in step with risk he's paranoid. yet he might actual be onto some thing, too. the hot international Order is actual. they are no longer a humorous tale. They do rather secretly administration the governments of the international. yet none of it is provable. it rather is all conjecture.

The conspiracy theories, the tree-huggers, the vegetarians, the gay people, the animal rights groups, the environmentalists, and the other crazy groups will NOT go away because America was founded on the principles that allow them to exist. You wanting them not to exists makes you unamerican. Go die.

This is a forum that provides enough anonymity that the people who "need" conspiracy theories can feel quite comfortable and happy.
Why do some people "need" conspiracies? The simple answer is weak minds combined with low self-esteem. They secretly see themselves as heroes of free thought building up delusions of grandeur in which they are the few "patriots" that see the "truth".
This demonstrates exactly why the US needs to teach critical thinking in schools. Of course this would tend to mean we'd need to emphasize science and proof over legend and myth; not easy to do with either the hard left in the teaching positions or the hard right in the positions of power.

I'm with you 115% brother/sister! I don't know the answer. People don't use their brains.
Offtopic: An ex once told me that the environment is more important then the security of the United States... another psycho. Just like these conspiracy theorist supporters.

They'll be here as long as conspiracies abound. Unless of course you believe that there is no such thing as conspiracy. Maybe they should strike the word from the dictionary because it just never happens except in Hollywood!
I wish I could be satisfied just burying my head in the sand and pretending that everybody loves me.
