First of all, is "illegitimate" a real verb or are you just kree-a-tuv?

Coining labels like 'truther' and 'birther' marginalizes those who QUESTION. The Illuminati does this with abandon and you the sheeple pick up where they left off. It's just like how Foucault describes: the prisoners start enforcing one another.


Cheesy and incorrect attempt at coining a phonetic term? Check

Unnecessary caps? Check

Outdated conspiracy theory reference? Check

Outdated buzzword (sheeple)? Check

Shallow academic namedropping? Check
