Description

Here's the transcription of the text from the comic:

Panel 1:

• Character 1: "Why do you think disinformation spreads so much faster than information?"
• Character 2: "This is just basic physics."

Panel 2:

• Character 2: "Information can't travel faster than light. If you push the equations of relativity to a velocity higher than lightspeed, you end up with an imaginary term."

Panel 3:

• Character 1: "By definition, only imaginary information can go faster than information."

Panel 4:

• Character 2: "This is wrong, but it would explain so much."
• Character 1: "It's not just disinformation, it's an entire distheoretical framework!"
