The argument was implicit: he called it a conspiracy theory.

A conspiracy theory is an explanation of an event or situation that invokes a conspiracy [...] without credible evidence.

That's not an argument. You should look at the example in the wikipedia article I posted.

The poster formed an opinion based on observations and gave his reasons for doing so. If you disagree with his observations, the best way to do so is to provide your reasons for disagreeing with his analysis.
