\"How<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
I was delighted to find myself in the Top Ten (alright; top 15) of the European Values list of 2,326 \u201cUseful Idiots\u201d appearing regularly on RT shows, and thus legitimizing Vladimir Putin\u2019s attempt to destroy Western civilization as we know it.<\/div>\n
\n

Why delighted? Because it completes the set of conspiracies to which I can now be accused of belonging. They include:<\/p>\n

\u2022 The Putin Conspiracy, since I am regularly interviewed on Russia Today (and even worse, I now get paid to write<\/a> for RT!);<\/p>\n

\u2022 The Soros Conspiracy, since my research<\/a>, has been funded by the Institute for New Economic Thinking (INET) which he established;<\/p>\n

\u2022 The Murdoch Conspiracy, since I appear every week on Sky News Australia with Carson Scott,<\/a> and I used to get paid by News Ltd <\/a>to write a weekly column; and<\/p>\n

\u2022 The Alt-Right Conspiracy, since I\u2019ve signed a book contract with Vox Day<\/a>\u2019s publishing firm Castalia House.<\/p>\n

So not only am I a \u201cuseful idiot<\/a><\/em>,\u201d I\u2019m a useful idiot for four contradictory conspiracies. Does that make me a double-double agent?<\/p>\n
