If you think science is apolitical, you need to read more.
Or, at the very least, pull your head out of the ground and just have a look around. Holy shit
This post is definitely not science memes though.
Yeah but I was just hoping to see funny things here. This is just depressing.
This isn't a science meme lmfao. Do random Back to the Future memes fit here too, just because scientist mentioned?

This is an attack on where science is conducted.
next up: posting hardcore porn in Science Memes because one of the actors plays a professor
You're welcome to make another community.
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?
Nah you're banned for being rude.
Wow a mod on a sanctimonious power trip. What is this, reddit?
No, it's decentralised. You're welcome to make another science community and run it as you please. People are rarely banned here. You can check our logs for what this person said.
Not a meme
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?
