conspirator is a dumb little r package made up by Mathew during a conversation with Matt Williams, Stephen Hill, and Mat Marques about what is and is not a conspiracy.

It’s generally agreed that conspiracy theories must have 3 properties:

1. Multiple actors plotting together (if it’s just one person, it’s not a conspiracy)

2. Secrecy (if there’s open data, it’s not a conspiracy)

3. Malevolence/harmful goals (if you’re plotting to buy mum a present, it’s not a conspiracy)

conspirator uses these parameters to generate a random conspiracy theory for you.

conspirator is not on CRAN, install from github via:

remotes::install_github("Lingtax/conspirator")

Generate a conspiracy using the conspire function

conspirator::conspire()
