I’m sure you’re right that many conspiracy theories are true. I just find your argument specious. Aren’t you saying:

Some Fs are Gs. These 1000 things are Fs. Therefore, some of those 1000 things are G.

I'm saying that out of 100 past "official versions of facts", X (where X is a number > 0) turned out to be false. So it's very likely that out of 100 contemporary "official version of facts", X (where X is > 0) will turn out to be false.
