The theory that bullshit exists on a spectrum, not as a binary category. Bullshit, in the [philosophical] sense (following Harry Frankfurt), is speech intended to persuade without regard for truth—not lying (which cares about truth enough to negate it), but [bullshitting] (which doesn't care at all). The Bullshit Spectrum recognizes that claims can be more or less bullshit, in different dimensions, for different purposes. A politician's vague promise is bullshit—but maybe low-grade, situational bullshit. A [conspiracy theory] is higher-grade bullshit, more bullshit in more dimensions. The spectrum allows for distinguishing between different kinds and degrees of bullshit, rather than lumping everything dishonest into the same category.
