and that's why you can see that once the person has gone to school they protest (in the next panel)

you then can see in the panel after they protest that they become the parent, telling their child to go to school. presumably because they forgot what they learned at school (or because they think school is the best way for children to learn about these things - which seems a little less likely)

yeah, but where do you think that information comes from? that's right, research. it's research papers all the way down.

don't get carried away by big research /s

I'm a little confused. Don't we want this to be as transparent as possible to limit conspiracies?

right, except sometimes it's easier to impose conditions on certain countries than others. for example the US was able to get the previous Indian administration to sign a treaty ceding partial control of their arsenal to them, on threat of sanctions (if I recall correctly). as much as the US might want to do something like that with China, it wouldn't be anywhere near as easy to pull off.

this is just an example, I'm not attaching moral value to what occurred/occurs

look at mr big spoon here

or make a 'join lemmy' sign?

or write 'join lemmy' so you take away the numbers in the long run
