This week, a new conspiracy theory has gripped the United States involving a wave of mysterious deaths and disappearances, highlighting deeper, more concerning issues on the minds and hearts of many Americans.

The tragic death by suicide of a controversial media personality in Colorado has amplified existing theories that have now been circulating for weeks, involving mysterious deaths of former U.S. officials, scientists, and others who had access to our nation’s most secretive technologies. However, as the web of conspiracy now extends beyond government officials and scientists to incorporate television stars, we look at the broader roots of conspiracy theories, belief in them, and the kinds of ideas that propel them. We also examine how President Donald Trump, having once also promoted a range of conspiracy theories, is increasingly now becoming the unwelcome subject of several that peg him as “The Antichrist.”

This episode of Middle Theory is dedicated to the individuals and the families of those who have recently died or disappeared, and continue to be promoted as “targeted individuals” in a recent conspiracy theory that has been propelled by the uncritical mainstream media. May those who we have lost rest in peace, and in privacy.
