0284 - Actor Portraying Charles Darwin
🕑 Added 2023-11-30 09:00:01 +0000 UTCThis is a lovely joke about politicians bending the truth to support their agenda - Burns straight up admits that this is not actually the father of evolution Charles Darwin, but just someone playing him, but Burns knows the people of Springfield are too dim witted to actually internalise that. There's no science being shown here, merely media-savvy spin wrapped in a scientific bow.
Our friends at the Simpsons wiki even buy into this, conflating this actor character and the actual Charles Darwin into one single page, even though they are different people. I will forgive them, just this once.
