Hmm...on review, this might have been a bit too curt.  Some examples, then:

"Why can't I accelerate past the speed of light?  This 'relativity'
nonsense is physics conspiring against me!"

"Why can't I have a perpetual motion machine?  Entropy is a conspiracy
against me!"

"Why can't I know in advance how long a computation will take and if it
will ever complete?  Every time I try, something conspires against me!"

I believe that claims that superdeterminism is a malicious, adversarial,
conspiratorial process are similarly incorrect.
