What are macro-conspiracies?

A macro-conspiracy is like a big secret that lots of people know, but they don’t all talk about it together.

Imagine you and your friends are playing a game where everyone has to hide a toy somewhere in the classroom. You all agree on a plan, but none of you tell anyone else exactly what you're doing. When the teacher comes in, she thinks something weird is happening because everyone is hiding toys, even though no one told her about it.

That’s kind of like a macro-conspiracy. A bunch of people know about a secret plan or event, but they don’t all work together or talk about it openly. It might look like magic from the outside, like how your teacher saw everyone hiding toys without knowing why, but really, it's just a lot of people doing something together without telling others.

But they still don’t all get together to talk about it, kind of like how you and your friends could have hidden toys without telling the whole class!
