I posted ~8 months ago (albeit on an anonymous forum) that those really stupid 5g conspiracy theories might be a coverup for the privacy implications of 5g (my meta conspiracy theory if you will.)

Create a conspiracy so out-landish it out-competes the legitimate concerns for attention and burns out people’s patience for listening. There must be multiple PR firms that have this strategy down pat, is there a name for it yet?

I might nominate Conspiracy-washing, or maybe conspiracy-flooding, drowning out the rational voices.
