dank memes

Rules:

  1. All posts must be memes and follow a general meme setup.

  2. No unedited webcomics.

  3. Someone saying something funny or cringe on twitter/tumblr/reddit/etc. is not a meme. Post that stuff in /c/slop

  4. Va*sh posting is haram and will be removed.

  5. Follow the code of conduct.

  6. Tag OC at the end of your title and we'll probably pin it for a while if we see it.

  7. Recent reposts might be removed.

  8. Tagging OC with the hexbear watermark is praxis.

  9. No anti-natalism memes. See: Eco-fascism Primer

Eh.... Just because you aren't white doesn't mean you're any more connected to your ancestral history.

I for one know a lot more about the Czech side of the family than I do the Korean. Part of that is because the Czech side were all part of the Moravian church, and were obsessed with record keeping. While the Korean side was torn in two by the Korean war. So I mainly just have some pictures and stories going back to my grandparents, and that about it.

This is true and I shouldn't of jumped to that conclusion. I apologize.

No worries, I didn't take offence or anything. Just thought I'd add another perspective. Modernity and globalization has its ups and downs, and tends to make things like ancestry a little more complicated than it used to be.
