I don't think that people who think the US government blew up the WTC
need psychiatric treatment, and I don't dismiss their views because
it's not the official story.  I dismiss their views because I consider
them to be wildly unrealistic in their model of how the bourgeois state
behaves (and because they don't have a fraction of the amount of
evidence they would need to make me alter my model of how the bourgeois
state behaves).

^^^^^^
CB: I have to respectfully disagree with your model of how the bourgeois
state behaves. Throughout its history ,whether in democratic-republics or
fascist regimes, the bourgeois state has hatched hundreds of plots, schemes,
complex deceptions, and "conspiracies". A major agency of the U.S. state
today is the C.I.A. All it does is conspire. The bourgeois state includes
local and state governments, as well as national governments. Your model of
the bourgeois state is tamely naïve :>).
