Is there any actual evidence of any of this? Why not show some of the "brains-in-a-jar" walking around?

It's just a bunch of huckster promotion, "infographics", and phony pictures of Krang. The only actual photos are a few tiny petri dishes. There are no "brains" controlling robots.

The grift is strong and travels far beyond any national border.
