I believe Abraham Lincoln summed it up in that famous meme: “If it’s a quote on a picture on the internet, it’s gotta be true”
No but you see I, a stranger on the internet, agree with the message of the post. Therefore, it must be correct, as one is unable to lie on the internet lest their shins be removed by the cyberpolice.
