How is this conspiracy, I am curious. I can literally see it happening.

In good faith, can you respond to Terr_'s comment above then?

1. Who is doing the funding?

2. How are they doing the funding?

3. What message are they spreading, and what proof do you have the message has an effect?

Calling it a conspiracy theory does not mean it is instantly wrong, but it is a correct label - the accusation is hidden (or perhaps not, apparently it's obvious) wealthy foreign funders controlling American society. If that doesn't look like a conspiracy theory (which again, does not mean it's wrong immediately!), then I don't know what you expect.

What OP is suggesting is literally a conspiracy. It can also literally happen—some conspiracies are real.
