If there is a mutilated cow found, and one 'woo' declares definitively that it was a chupacabra attack, and another says it is obviously another attack from the Voltones from Alpha Upsilon 18, neither 'woo' will criticize the other for being wrong, but both will agree anyone else pointing out it was coyotes (again) is part of a government conspiracy to hush up the mutilation.
Additionally, I think a corollary exists in the religion orbit, Southern Baptists and Mormons will ignore their mutual belief the other is going to burn in the bowels of Hell if there is an Atheist around to criticize.
Forget mutilated cows whose injuries are not yet fully explainied - What about crop circles? Even after the perpetrators of the hoaxes (crop circles) have owned up and shown how it was done, the UFO nutters still want to blame it on aliens!
