Bertrand Russell Calculates 1+1

Hey, Bertrand, can you calculate 1+1? Demi 1 + 1 = 2

A black-and-white image of Bertrand Russell is overlaid with increasingly complex mathematical formulas before ending with the simple answer “1 + 1 = 2.” The joke exaggerates how an intellectual overthinks an elementary calculation, so it works as a reaction to needless overanalysis.
