When Scientific Literacy Hits Rock Bottom

The Empire's engineering department just got owned by the Flat Death Star Society. In a universe where we can build planet-destroying superweapons, apparently basic geometry is still controversial. Next they'll claim the tractor beam is just magnets and the Force is a government conspiracy. I suppose if you squint hard enough at a sphere, everything looks flat—just like some people's learning curves.

The ultimate perpetual motion machine that would make physicists cry! This meme brilliantly satirizes those "free energy" conspiracy theories that pop up on sketchy corners of the internet. Someone's proposing to use Portal-style teleportation technology (you know, from the video game) to create an infinite energy loop: water falls through one portal, turns a wheel generator, then magically reappears at the top through another portal to fall again. Thermodynamics? Conservation of energy? Never heard of 'em! 😂 The troll face really sells it - the universal symbol for "I know this breaks all laws of physics but I'm pretending it's genius." If only solving our energy crisis was as simple as ignoring the fundamental laws of the universe!

Behold! The ultimate flat-earther fantasy world where the Pyramids, Mordor's Eye Tower, and Lady Liberty all hang out like neighbors at a cosmic block party! This photoshopped skyline mashes famous landmarks from different continents into one impossible view—exactly what you'd expect if Earth were just a flat disc with monuments sprinkled around like decorations in a video game. It's basically what would happen if our planet's geography worked like The Sims and some celestial being just dragged and dropped landmarks wherever they felt like it! Next update: the Eiffel Tower right next to the Great Wall of China, because why not?

The cognitive dissonance is strong with this one! Science deniers somehow manage to hold two completely contradictory criticisms of scientists simultaneously: "They keep changing their theories!" and "They're too stubborn to change their views!" It's like complaining that a restaurant has too many menu options while also whining they never update their menu. Pick a lane, people! This is exactly why the scientific method exists - to systematically test ideas and revise them based on evidence, not to confirm whatever nonsense you read on your uncle's Facebook page.

The exponential paradox of modern technology! Despite billions of smartphones capturing every brunch plate and sunset, cryptid evidence remains stubbornly potato-quality! Giant squid footage improves slightly with specialized deep-sea equipment, while Bigfoot stays forever blurry despite forest hikers packing 4K cameras. And UFOs? They've mastered interstellar travel but can't seem to hover near anyone with photography skills! It's almost as if these mysterious creatures have signed an exclusive contract with the Grainy Footage Agency™! Next time you're hunting for extraterrestrials, maybe try bringing a 2003 flip phone camera instead of your iPhone 15 Pro Max!

The conspiracy theorist's logic is truly something to behold. "The moon landing was faked with CGI!" they proclaim, while showing a blurry video game character that looks like it was rendered on a potato. Apparently NASA had access to technology from the future, then deliberately downgraded it to look terrible? If they had CGI this advanced in 1969, we'd all be living in The Matrix by now. Next they'll tell us the Earth is flat because they can't see a curve from their basement window.
