"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!

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.

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."

There's a trope that many comics can be improved, if you remove the last panel. I do believe this to be one such case...

I think removing the text bubble and just having the character's shocked impression would be a good choice.
