That is unrealistic, but also not what a conspiracy is. It’s also a red herring, as nobody serious is claiming that. They are talking about civilisation changes, which we are already seeing.

It's hardly an existential threat to civilization or locally to societies it affects. It's a symptom of things going sough, sure.
