    Is it against the rules to nitpick bad science here? Because if it isn’t then this is absolutely not how continental drift works, there is no ocean of magma under the earth’s crust. The asthenosphere contains small amounts of magma that lead to a “fluid like” behaviour over long time scales. But even if I’m being generous and assuming the creator is referring to the asthenosphere then the upper layer should probably be labeled as the lithosphere and not the crust since the latter refers to the chemical boundary with the mantle and not the brittle mechanical regime that sits above the asthenosphere. Meme is still cool though, thanks for listening to my TED talk 🫠
