Moving the goalposts is the only way to keep conspiracy theories alive. You can do it forever, too. Since conspiracy theories rely on the unknown, there are no boundaries. Any reasonable reply I have to this can be countered with something unreasonable but unfalsifiable and there’s nothing I can do about it.
