You do know that this comic is mocking how the fundamental forces are taught at the high-school level, not our understanding of them, right?

- semi-extrinsic 11y agoNo, there is quite a lot of required material to even begin understanding quantum chromodynamics. I'm not sure you can understand it in anything but a silly way unless you're willing to do at least some complicated math. That's par for the course for a quantum field theory in a non-Abelian gauge. The problem is also compounded by the distinction between the residual strong force and the actual strong force.
