    I prefer the conspiracy ouroboros:

    Conspiracy theories do not generate spontaneously. They’re all crafted deliberately by a nefarious cabal of corporate interests to distract and manipulate the public.

    Hey! I read a blog once also. You’re telling me I’ve had the option all this time, to become a deranged, delusional maniac?

    “Now go tell those experts who the real guy who once read a blog is” is my new favourite response

      Also impressive:

      Wow! I used to be a sad loser who lost my kids from drinking too much, but now I’m Neo from the Matrix. Hya!

    Killer comic. Last panel’s a little weak though. Maybe it should break the fourth wall, like the guy looks at the reader and is like: “This is causing all the world’s problems.”

    Anyone else notice the bots with 5 letter names spam posting comics here? Didn’t take long for bot infiltration and karma farming to infect the fediverse.

      1 - I’m not a bot.

      2 - Posting content which people are upvoting, commenting on, and enjoying IS NOT spamming.

      Is your life so easy and dull that you have to invent imaginary outrage over nothing?
      If people weren’t posting here then you’d bitch about lack of content. Go back to reddit!

      I’m not sure why anyone would think “karma farming” would accomplish anything here. Can most users even see the karma others have on Lemmy? I know I can’t.
