school

A single-panel SMBC comic. A man, drawn from the chest up and gesturing emphatically toward a microphone or phone, rants: "Modern schools are just pushing their agenda instead of educating. I mean, look at me. I went to 'school' and I literally right now cherry-picked a Facebook photo of an alleged 'school' poster to make an argument against the entire system! It's a failure, folks!" The joke is that he undercuts his own anti-school argument by demonstrating exactly the kind of bad reasoning (cherry-picking a single Facebook image) that a real education would have taught him to avoid. The votey (aftercomic) has lines of handwritten text reading "We now cut to a commercial claiming that gold is a good longterm investment" repeated, above a loose doodle of a calm man's head and shoulders, riffing on the unreliable-media-rant framing.
