I’ve offered people links to the PDF versions of the textbooks so they can point out the wokeism and tell me how much time a full course on biochemistry leaves for discussing the dismantling of the patriarchy. Nobody has gotten back to me on that.

That image is so awesome but it needs to say “Everything I don’t like or understand is woke” cuz hooboy I’ve talked to some people that call shit woke and after pressing them with questions it is obscenely apparent they do not understand one iota of how said woke thing even works.

White supremacists call Trump supporters woke if they aren’t racist.

It’s today’s slang for what communism meant in the sixties, things they don’t like

Which is extra fucked since it started out as black slang for “noticing how rigged the system is against minorities”

Socialism is when the government does stuff, and when it does a real lot of stuff, that’s full blown communism.

This is a joke based on what conservatives say.

you cant argue with them like theyre people, you gotta trick em like toddlers

use their own game, tell them its a good thing theyve never learned any of this stuff because they couldnt handle the truth

make a few bot accounts to follow then around on social media, dropping super vague but ominous statements about biochem:

“you think thats scary, you should see what chromosomes ACTUALLY do.”

“yeah Joe Biden is nuts right? haha almost as nuts as how there’s a 1 in 600 chance that you were not born a male but dont know”

May I suggest you add “the core economy 1.0” to your list of “read and think about what you’ve done” list. Free ebook used in 1st year econ.

I feel like I’d be a massive hypocrite if I link it for someone and I haven’t read it. Lol But sure!

Wow! Look at you pushing propaganda for Big Earth. They are just trying to get you to buy more lifespan! We all die, so why not die in a coal rolling F-250, like God intended.

Edit: Give your local, helpful car guy a high-five!

Very likely not a diesel if it’s an F150. Generally those are F250’s and up. Or, more likely Rams and Silverados.

There was actually a pretty good span there where you couldn’t even get an F-150 that was a diesel.

But, I think your point is still valid. No one seems to give a shit enough to sacrifice their big truck fantasies.

As a sidenote, diesel is not necessarily bad; a properly tuned diesel vehicle with a DEF system will have lower emissions than the same vehicle with a gasoline engine.

Of course, coal rollers deliberately don’t have their engine tuned properly

Like 99% of generational conflict these days is the pressure of the young wanting this country to do the work to live up to the propoganda we were fed growing up instead of just believing it out of hand.

Same for 99% of why religious faith is in decline in the US.

Can’t go calling yourself the greatest country in the world forever, eventually you either need to put up or shut up.

Don’t worry, with the advent of AI, we will be able to protect the wellbeing of our beloved economy long after the last human is dead!

That’s all that matters after all, as I’m told during every crisis.
