Welcome to c/science_memes @ Mander.xyz!

A place for majestic STEMLORD peacocking, as well as memes about the realities of working in a lab.

Rules

  1. Don't throw mud. Behave like an intellectual and remember the human.
  2. Keep it rooted (on topic).
  3. No spam.
  4. Infographics welcome, get schooled.

This is a science community. We use the Dawkins definition of meme.

Neolib idiots don't see the (immense) value of fundamental research because it doesn't directly generate profits, more at 11

They're not neolibs, they're fascists. The Democrats are neolibs

True, but I don't think many of them would say that to your face (including musk who I assume would pretend to be neolib, who do kind of have a hate boner for basic research, at least in my country)

Fascists lie, including about being fascists. Trump is a fascist, his party are fascists, those who work for him, even if they don't go all in on fascists values, are absolutely tarrable with the same brush. The biggest difference between them and the Nazis is that the Nazis had better dress sense
