Scientific unprogress...
(reddthat.com)
A place for majestic STEMLORD peacocking, as well as memes about the realities of working in a lab.
Rules
This is a science community. We use the Dawkins definition of meme.
Only a rich crackpot could distribute pamphlets claiming colloidal silver cures cancer, and then they'd still only reach people in walking distance.
Now, any moron can reach literally the entire world at no cost or effort.
Also, literacy itself was gatekept back then. The stupid people we're referring to wouldn't even have been able to read it.
