Attacking an institute of science. This administration could not have orchestrated a better representation of itself.

snooggums@piefed.world · 101 pts · 161d

They could have attacked a school full of children...oh wait.

Iran is just the testing ground, they're doing over there what they want to do here but can't... Yet

It's not like there was already a glaring example of an aggressor attacking another country's civilian infrastructure in an attempt to inflict terror. And also failing miserably at it.

One recent... many, many more throughout history. Terror against the population does not work, never did and never will.

I dunno ... Rome fucked up Carthage pretty bad.

That wasn't terror, that was genocide, which unfortunately can work. See also the USA genocide of native Americans.

Bibi needs the war to last at least until October.

ChickenLadyLovesLife@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 160d

already a glaring example

Only those meaningless sideshows known as "WWI" and "WWII".

I agree with the post

I condemn america's actions in middle east

This isn't a meme

Its connection to science is held by a thin thread

And you are supose to be a moderator?

chonglibloodsport@lemmy.world · 8 pts · 160d

Sadly, there are no rules against politics here, nor are there any rules requiring science content.

humanspiral@lemmy.ca · 5 pts · 160d

it is an attack on science. Organizational/Societal behaviour is arguably a science as well.

Killing the pope out of cruelty would increase church attendance, too. It's rocket appliances, Mr. Leahy.

That answer almost feels as if it was about to break rule 1.

This discussion is futile and your post does not fit dawkins definition of a meme.

Classic Isreal. I see bombed university and assume they were enthusiastically involved.

A place for majestic STEMLORD peacocking, as well as memes about the realities of working in a lab.
A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.

WHERE MEME?

This post is definitely not science memes though.

k0e3@lemmy.ca · 13 pts · 160d

Yeah but I was just hoping to see funny things here. This is just depressing.

Godric@lemmy.world · -2 pts · 160d

This isn't a science meme lmfao. Do random Back to the Future memes fit here too, just because scientist mentioned?

Oh, you're a mod. I assume if I reported your post for obviously, blatantly being off-topic based on the rules as written, I'd get banned?

Not a meme

Godric@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 160d

So maybe try a meme about STEM getting gutted, you know this isn't the same.

Do random Trek memes belong here? Their mission is scientific exploration, so it belongs, right?

This is what to be ignorant looks like. If you don't study your enemy properly, effectiveness of your actions lays in hands of luck.

Bloomcole@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 160d

It's not entirely 'ignoring experts'.
That is partly used as a stick of one side of the Uniparty to beat the other side.
And partly as cope for many americans of both sides who want to keep the illusion of their invincible military and that their failure wouldn't happen under another president.
This is untrue since their 'experts' under any president have followed the completely debunked doctrine of Giulio Douhet.
They have more military problems mostly that they have not kept up with modern warfare evolution.

Agree with the sentiment here but this is the wrong forum by a longshot.
