Vox only hires The Smartest Thinkers™. Here’s all the proof you need:

There’s something so satisfying about a JuiceVox-er’s sneering condescension. Satisfying for us, that is.
According to @Max_Fisher, Europe isn't a place. Or something. Seriously, what is he even saying here? https://t.co/PLzrCRCLNb

Well, for one thing, he’s saying he doesn’t know what “geography” is:

@Max_Fisher What does geography have to do w/what he said? You don't think taking that town in face of allied air will be recruiting boon?

.@DrewMTips It's obvious @Max_Fisher didn't think his comment through. Like nearly everything else he writes.

That’s just par for the course at Vox.

Oh, snap! Vox will never live that one down. We’ll make sure of it.

@lachlan Is that anything like the Bridge between Gaza and the West Bank? @Max_Fisher

Point being that @Max_Fisher knows almost nothing about anything but chooses to lecture everyone about everything. #TheVoxWay

Kobani is a Syrian town close to the Turkish border. And …
Part of Turkey is in Europe, bordering Bulgaria and Greece. Graham was right. RT @Max_Fisher: Geography is hard http://t.co/CXqUAUlVoU

D’oh!
Facts are jejune RT @MelissaTweets: RT @RBPundit: Yes, folks. @VoxDotCom's Foreign Policy guy doesn't know that part of Turkey is in Europe.
— Phineas Fahrquar (@irishspy) October 9, 2014
Aren’t they, though?

Yes, it is. @Max_Fisher pic.twitter.com/WiB3KabkEO

Fisher could’ve avoided this embarrassment pretty easily.
@NoahCRothman There's that magic thing called "checking a map." Vox should try it sometime.

Yes, but …

Poor Vox. Someday, they’ll catch up with the rest of us! Maybe. Probably not.

“Seconds” would be more appropriate.
In any event, despite Fisher being wrong yet again, he has taught us a very important lesson:
