From the Editors at Merriam-Webster
conspiracy theory noun

Fun Fact, the CIA used the term Conspiracy to easily cover up or disprove people who knew things that the cia didn't want the public knowing.
They lumped real things in with actual nonsense like bigfoot.
This way if it really did get out to the general public people wouldn't listen and call it a conspiracy.
A lot of people don't know this though and are never taught the history surrounding the word.
*NOTE: I am not commenting on any ideas or 'conspiracies'. I am simply explaining part of the history.
