Satanic ritual abuse wank
I dithered about whether to put this in unfunnybusiness or here, but in the end Satanic Ritual Abuse is not real, and what the person who said it was said was so funny it belonged here.

People who blatantly deny the existence of ritual abuse after being offered solid resources to the contrary demonstrate that they don’t need evidence about its existence. Instead, when they continue to deny its existence in a seemingly obsessive manner, they are more likely trolling for new victims in hopes that responding survivors will – while more emotional – slip-up and provide vulnerable, personal information.

There you go. If you deny the existance of ritual abuse, it's because you're looking for new victims to ritually abuse.

Usually it's not the families inducing the memories, but (poor) psychologists, acting under the belief that hypnotic suggestion can't create what isn't there.

There are books specifically about the phenomenon, but I learned about it in Demon-Haunted World by Carl Sagan. (The book is advocating for critical thinking and science versus superstition, and so a great deal of it talked about the ways our perceptions and common sense could be mistaken.)
