It seems like a lot of the people who have ridiculous ideas believe that the people that are ridiculing them are too stupid/too closeminded/ in on the conspiracy/etc. They seems to think that if they can just get their message out, it will become clear that the interviewer is the idiot. As an analogy, suppose someone wanted to interview you about evolution, and you knew they were creationists that were planning on making fun of evolution. I think that many Dopers would do it because the creationists would just look stupid exposing their own ignorance.

I used to love the Man Show, but I rarely watch TV anymore. Is it not still on?
