History is littered with many “conspiracy theories” that turn out to be fact.
I don’t think it really matters though.
Either you’re someone who has studied history or hasn’t. Either you think critically or you don’t. Either you think government is THE solution, part of the solution or is the problem (all of which can be somewhat true depending on the topic).
“Conspiracy theories” are just the study of “what’s really going on”. If someone wants to plant the flag that any thought or observation that runs contrary to the “official narrative” is somehow unsmart then they are welcome to that stance. They will have to come to their own conclusions over time - or not - to their own potential demise.
If someone isn’t open minded enough to at least consider alternate trains of thought or perspective it’s just not worth your time to try and educate them.
