A major reason I don't treat conspiracy theorists seriously is that with all their paranoia they have a huge blind spot for the Captain-Planet-cartoon-villainy the oil industry is engaging in.

Just the stuff the Heartland Institute does is enough to write a book about and still not a peep from the usual crowd.

If you don't treat conspiracy theorists seriously, how would you know if the conspiracy theory scene has already addressed oil industry corruption?

The War-for-Oil conspiracy theories are proven correct.

The suppression of 'free energy' is discussed widely as being a result of oil-industry repression.

And on and on.

Almost all of the post-Iraq oil contracts went for Chinese companies. The US made very little of it.
