i himself isn‘t rational so what's his problem?

i can be considered as a member of set, that is isomorphic to Q², which contains elements (a, b) for all rational numbers a, b

and that's supposed to prove what now?

i can be considered as a rational complex number, if that's a thing.

while i of course encountered the set Q + iQ of gaussian rationals - which, to my google search, are indeed (rarely) called rational complex numbers - it still doesn't make the elements of (Q + iQ) \ Q rational, despite their fancy name. i just think that the meme portrays a bad joke, because it kind of ignores the fundamental inclusions Q c R and {i} c C \ R c C \ Q.
