A conspiracy is just people talking to each other about a crime. It doesn’t have to be hidden. Conspiracies can be in the open.

No, that just isn't true. It's almost always used to indicate secret coordination, both in idiomatic usage and formal definitions.

And it doesn't have to be criminal. You are hallucinating more than a 2024 LLM.

Look up the definition of criminal conspiracy.

Look up the definition of conspiracy (not criminal conspiracy, as you sneakily modified):

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conspiracy

"A conspiracy, also known as a plot, ploy, or scheme, is a plan or agreement between people (called conspirers or conspirators) for an unlawful OR HARMFUL purpose, such as murder, treason, or corruption, especially with a political motivation,[2] while KEEPING THEIR AGREEMENT SECRET from the public or from other people affected by it"

Why are you being a dick? Just have a conversation instead of trying to win something.

Uh, you came at me first trying to prove me wrong, this thread is plain evidence for anyone still looking, which is unlikely.

No one came at you. I replied to you. You accused me of hallucinating and sneaking. You’re a dick.

Coming at me, contradicting me, what ever you want to call it. "hallucinating" is a statement of fact. You just concocted false information out of nowhere, no different from an LLM. If being truthful is being a dick, so be it. If you had something else to say and the false statement was incidental, I could have been more lenient, but the entirety of your comment was just to contradict me, and wrongly at that.
