yes, the red lines are parallel

We explore this finite geometry bell curve math meme from r/mathmemes and the small meme war it triggered. Are the red lines parallel? How? Why? When? Where? We'll introduce two finite geometries and focus specifically on affine geometry where we prove the order n affine plane has n^2 points. #maths #mathmemes
