It's the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again

The only reason this goober is even famous in the first place is because he treated Rosalind Franklin like a lab assistant.

He found DNA, doesn’t mean he understands it.

This is how I feel about the creator trying to say it's pronounced "jif"

And the original OP is mad that people are mad at the race scientist.

Also, lysenkoism is bullshit

🙄 Why are we federated with lemmy.one again?

I don’t think I’ve ever met a biologist with anything but contempt and disgust for James Watson. Absolute piece of shit.

Everyone who has ever mentioned meeting James Watson has him immediately saying something incredibly racist, sexist, or antisemitic.

None of my college bio classes gave him any credit either, he was only ever mentioned as “This fucking asshole who stole Rosalind Franklin’s work”
