somebody who studied ley-lines was working-class, therefore there's no North American primate

There's too goddamn many North American primates if you ask me.

And it's not that he's working class but that he very clearly had some kind of mental illness based on my interactions with him, which cast doubt on every other "expert" these shows had on. I had personal experience with this guy and knew he wasn't a reliable person.

And that doubt was verified when I looked up where those other supposed experts got their alleged degrees.

Come to think of it, the meme itself is also mad classist: "Maybe some people have had forbidden experiences, but fuck em they're poor"
