Title (above the comic): WEEKEND ACTIVITY: INFILTRATING CONSPIRACY THEORY GROUPS TO MAKE THEM STUPIDER
Panel 1: A man with glasses sits in a speech bubble of a crowd. He says: "I keep trying to get autism but the vaccines don't work!"
Panel 2: A small banner-towing airplane flies through a blue sky trailing a banner that reads: "PRIVATIZE CHEMTRAILS!"
Panel 3: A crowd scene with a protest-style sign held up. The sign reads: "AIRPLANES: DID 9/11" with a red circle-and-slash (no symbol) over an airplane icon.
Votey:
A hand-drawn protest sign or placard reads: "VACCINES DID 9/11" next to a drawing of two syringes/vaccine needles.

A three-panel SMBC comic titled "WEEKEND ACTIVITY: INFILTRATING CONSPIRACY THEORY GROUPS TO MAKE THEM STUPIDER." Panel 1: a bespectacled man in a crowd complains, "I keep trying to get autism but the vaccines don't work!"—inverting the anti-vax claim. Panel 2: a small banner plane flies across a blue sky trailing a banner reading "PRIVATIZE CHEMTRAILS!" Panel 3: a crowd holds a protest sign reading "AIRPLANES: DID 9/11" with a red no-symbol over an airplane. The joke is the narrator deliberately seeding absurd, self-contradicting slogans into conspiracy groups. Votey: a hand-drawn placard reads "VACCINES DID 9/11" beside a sketch of two syringes, mashing two conspiracy theories together.
