His theory conflicts with official reports which concluded the towers fell from impact damage and fires caused by the hijacked planes.

14. Dilbert 3
A pastiche of the long-running syndicated comic strip Dilbert by neofascist simp Scott Adams, Cboyardee's short video animations Dilbert 1-3 became popular on YouTube for their surreal storytelling, uncanny visuals, and dissonant, serene, proto-Vaporwave MIDI soundtracks. Dilbert 3 explores an undercurrent already present in the actual Dilbert comic strips. As the blurb for Adams' 1996 non-fiction management tome, "The Dilbert principle : a cubicle's-eye view of bosses, meetings, management fads & other workplace afflictions," states, “Millions of office dwellers tack Scott Adams’ comic strip to their walls when murdering the boss is not an acceptable option.” In Dilbert 3, director Cboyardee explores the conflict of sublimation in the Dilbert figure; a white cisgender man who appears existentially horny for the social impotency of the Post-Fordist workplace.
