Is there an empire NOT built on genocide, slavery, and bloodshed? Genuinely curious.
there’s a “[first half of the name of the restaurant] empire” down the way and they’re only built on bloodshed if that counts
It is like asking is their a country that isn’t fascist. The answer is there is none.
When people start recognizing that countries are the problem and not the solution we will be one step closer to being free.
Empire of the Sun (band) has not enslaved or genocided any cultures or groups I am aware of
They haven’t enslaved or genocided any cultural groups so far
Not a science meme. Dear American liberals of the internet,
Please stop bringing bringing your politics in places it shouldn’t be in. We know your country sucks. Can we please just be autistic and enjoy our science memes?
It’s not like any of us wanted this shit posted here either ffs

“A bract is a modified leaf that subtends another organ.”
“Okay, what’s a leaf?”
“Uhhhh…”you mean like all empires in history?
like England, Russia, Germany, Spain, France, etc…
Breaking your own rules. Nice.
Who else do we know that does that? 🙄

The post is political, more so than scientific.
Rich people and polticians make tons of rules and then don’t give a shit about them.
This isn’t science; it’s a political meme. I know you’re a mod, but this breaks rule 2 (it is not on topic for a science community).
Political and scientific are not, in fact, mutually exclusive
There’s an intersection of politics and science and this isn’t anywhere close to it. Meme about research funding or the astroturfed anti-intellectualism fucking our progress on vaccinations.
This is just a milquetoast leftist tagline with some science words stapled to it.
Didn’t say that they are.
This is clearly both botanical and political. And if a mod is posting it, it would fit within the spirit of the rule intended.
“mods are always right” is an insane take
That’s par for the course with Deceptichum
Mods know what their rules mean is a pretty basic take.
If mods know what their rules mean, they could describe them more clearly so it doesn’t become a philosophical debate.
For example, “Zero politics allowed”, or “No politics without science as the main theme”.
No.
