Limited time offers are sales techniques that are meant to give the person choosing whether or not to purchase something less time to consider their decision. This is a calculated sales technique and should be approached with caution rather than with glee.
Many conspiracy hypotheses include a set of dire consequences that are meant to make fear and override logic in their audience. People who believe the world is going to end (or just significantly change) will make a different set of decisions than people who don't. This is, generally, bad for all of society. The longevity of society is affected as that society has an increasing number of people who are *not* planning for its continued future. Conspiracy thinking degrades all of society and is a problem for everyone, not merely the people who believe in the unreality of the conspiracy.
