I even heard a theory that the term 'conspiracy theory' was invented after the JFK murder to twist facts and further obfuscate the real story, and that makes a lot of sense to me; many layers of psychological manipulation of the public's mind seem to be at work constantly.

Maybe the same theory I am thinking, a tool used by the CIA. I find it odd that so many people are blind to these manipulations. I have been doing some reading lately about propaganda, and there are many examples throughout history of misleading the public. A great example would be the war on Iraq. Fascinating stuff, I can get lost down that rabbit hole!
People do seem to be blind to the propaganda. Apparently all individuals share a 'group mind' while still retaining their individual minds, and this group mind is very easy to manipulate.
