A poignant comic, and a nuanced opinion with which I would heartily agree. More than a few, it seems, do fill in the gaps of their knowledge with just about anything, uncomfortable with the least bit of uncertainty. However, as per the commentary, yes, it is tricky to criticize this -- even indirectly -- as I'm sure many will argue that video games and science fiction were catalysts for their knowledge. And, in the grand scheme, who are we to judge the veracity of said knowledge or the effectiveness of the method?
For all that concern, though, this one did bring a knowing smile... *grin*
