OK, but you have real evidence that these people exist, right?
To clarify, I worry that these people don’t exist. The theory makes sense to some extent, but I don’t consider the average human to be this devious. And the behaviors this theory explains already have better explanations. Unless you use the words “pretend” and “conflict theorist” in some extremely mild way.
Notice that I’ve been asking a lot of yes/no questions in the previous comments. I’d love to get some yes/no answers to them.
Sometimes answers can’t be reduced to a simple yes or no.
I don’t have the power to see into people’s minds. So I can only infer why people behave the way that they do. And this post isn’t about whether Conflict Theorists mimic Mistake Theorists consciously or unconsciously, but about the fact that they do, with the point being that it is hard to tell them apart.
Again, I’m asking you to provide some sort of evidence that they actually do. You haven’t done that yet, aside from suggesting a motive. I’m not asking for something magical here. What sort of experiences and observations have led you to make the conclusion that these people exist?

As I’ve already indicated, that would take me into territory that I don’t want to go into.
