So you think claiming that these terms were made up by the owning class in order to divide the working class is not a conspiracy theory? What is it then?
An ideology which serves the owners and is propagated by they and us, for reasons both cynical and genuine. But ultimately, I believe, serves the owners best.
Oh, I see now. Can a conspiracy theory be an ideology then? Like I could agree that it’s both an ideology (a weird one, how it serves the owning class, I have no idea) and a conspiracy theory. But I still don’t see how it isn’t a conspiracy theory.
This is my point. The submission is about this important recognition being a conspiracy to keep us down. I think that’s silly.
Well that’s where we disagree then

Blatantly dodging the question
I’ll speak more plainly. No, It’s not a conspiracy, it’s an ideology
