That's good but no one I know would accept it as true.

Off hand, this one's got a lower "funny factor" than Corbett's 3 prior ~5 min satires which you can look up on YT:

and:

....and the details of OKC are more distant & vague in people's minds. OKC (CTs) never really "grew legs" the way 911 did; and my own case is probably typical in that I had no idea there was even significant controversy around OKC until AFTER I'd woken up to 911 and naturally explored other goodies down in the rabbit hole.

So this Corbett OKC satire will probably require most viewers some poking around at

to make sense of.

But IMHO he's on exactly the right track in using short, punchy humor/satire/ridicule in moving the ball forward; knocking down memetically-engineered dialogue-limiting "taboos", and waking up new people (IE not the choir).

Yeah, they'd prolly just shout you down with the trusty old:

Shut Up, Conspiracy Theorist!!!
