Defence Against the Dark Arts Part V: Conspiracy Theory Humour

I have mentioned how junk food, many TV programmes and junk advertisements on the radio make me feel ill: I just can’t tolerate them.
 
I feel the same way about many of the conspiracy theory discussions to be found online: bad English, unpleasant language, crass juvenile humour and insults, repetition of debunked allegations, presentation of platitudes as original insights, meaningless drivel and incomprehensible posts that add nothing of value to a discussion...they all have a bad effect on me. 

There may be useful information and amusing material here and there, but it is not worth trawling through the dross in the hope of finding an occasional gem: it is too time-consuming and too demoralising.

However, I do sometimes come across something really good by accident. I like conspiracy theory humour, and I recently found some amusing posts that seem worth highlighting.
