Description

Here’s the transcription of the text in the comic:

Panel 1: Character 1: "I don’t get it. We sent perfectly-crafted fake videos of all your world leaders enacting satanic rites, violating all of your most sacred taboos, didn’t shift the opinion polls at all."

Panel 2: Character 2: "Opponents had already assumed the leaders they dislike were literally eating babies, and supporters said that the methods were 'less than ideal' but that we should 'see where they’re going with this before we rush to judgment.'"

Panel 3: Character 1: "We’re a weak species." Character 2: "Just the opposite!"

Panel 4: Character 1: "Your politics is incorruptible because you’re already at maximum gullibility! We usually conquer planets by breaking down their institutions, but in your case it’s like stomping on broken glass!"

Panel 5: Character 1: "Call off the invasion! They’re too stupid to trick!" Character 2: "I’ve never been so proud."
