James Shelby Downard termed it a cryonic process, free/thaw. He taught that in the age of the Revelation of the Method, a conspiracy is first presented according to an infallible official version in which doubt is banished, skeptics are mocked and everyone is expected to believe what they have been told by “the authorities.”

Evidence for a conspiracy slowly leaks into the national psyche like acid from an old battery.
