Sticking with the patterns, think of conspiracies as those off color dots in the color blindness tests. Some can see the letters or numbers. Others see nothing but various color dots.

Practically everyone with the ability engages in conspiracies.

Synonyms for collaborate

band (together), concert, concur, conjoin, conspire, cooperate, join, league, team (up), unite

Those averse to or lacking the ability form leagues and teams instead. Or maybe they just remain oblivious to the deeper levels of interaction. A conspiracy is how you gain extraordinary powers and advantages for you and your co-conspirators, by thwarting or doing an end run around the 'official procedure'.
