I Trust the Experts

That's misinformation! Source? Are you going to tell me the earth is flat next? Actually... The answer was never 4. I learned the answer is actually 5. It's a private company, if they want to ban you for saying 4 they are allowed to. But you are not an expert. Your source is not on the list of trusted and credible sources. You've been fact checked! Is it peer reviewed? Snopes says... Going to need a trusted source on that. Check out this article explaining it's 5. That's been debunked. It's not your job to think! Do you have a degree in this subject matter? It is not for you or I to truly understand, just trust the experts. Are you in a cult? Correlation does not equal causation. That source doesn't count, I said trusted source. Those are just coincidences making it appear like 4. Unless you have a trusted source, we're done here. I hate your guts. I trust the experts. 1+1=2

A bearded Wojak confidently states that 1+1=2 while a glasses-wearing, scarred character argues that the answer is 5 and demands trusted sources, peer review, and expert credentials. The joke mocks appeals to authority, censorship, fact-checking, and refusing obvious evidence while pretending to be rational. It is used as a reaction to someone who blindly trusts institutions or dismisses simple facts with bureaucratic jargon.
