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.

It's more a case of when you go to the piss spraying machine you can't get mad if you get a little piss on you. Everyone seems to have forgotten that the internet is where people go to tell lies for fun

Actually you forgot to tell the Internet and social media apart.

The Internet is and has always been a lie spreading machine. Both on and off social media.

Your analogy of peeing in the pool is entirely off base. If these were false scientific papers posted to real established scientific journals that would certainly be unacceptable behavior but that's not what is being discussed here
