Prompt 2. In the first 150 or so pages of A Scanner Darkly,you get several instances of paranoid and conspiracist thinking. In the lectures for week eight, I suggested a comparison between Barris' prejudicial thinking in the episode of the seven speed bike and features of conspiracist thinking that we see all around us. Drawing on any other episode of paranoia or conspiracism from the novel, make a brief comparison between the way the fictional characters think and the way you see a contemporary conspiracy theorist thinking.
