bro invented conspiracy theories to discredit... conspiracy theories?

CIA Whistleblower John Kiriakou believes the CIA invented conspiracy theories... "I hate conspiracy theories that run amok. But, you know, a former CIA director is the one who came up with the term conspiracy theory." "And it was a way for the CIA to discredit people by making them sound like crazy people." "When, in fact, there was such a thing called MKUltra. There was such a thing called, you know, Operation Grasshopper or MK Chickwit. The CIA did crazy, crazy stuff"
