IAN: BoInG! But but... now wait a minute there. :)
But seriously: Yes, in that we can meaningfully
denote a given subset of things as "a conspiracy"
if, and only if, we can denote another set of
things that are "not a conspiracy." We would
properly state this: C <=> -C, and if C did
not imply -C, C could not be implied. As
such, this symmetrical implication
defines a logical union.

C = (-C => C) C is its implication by -C.
-C = (C => -C) -C is its implication by C.
The holistic point (so to say) is that the
identity structure of C contains both C and -C.
