It says "chess enthusiast" on the left, but shows a chessboard on the right. Sounds like these two have more in common than they see.

It also says chess enthusiast on the anime boy. Might just be a watermark.

Well you see, KNOWING ABOUT chess is superior to PLAYING chess, as chess is just a silly little toy.

It's different because... Umm... ~~the creator of this meme is pointlessly trying to divide people into anything but a class war~~ wait uhhhh ~~is rage bait~~ reasons.

If you are here asking: "Is this a science meme?"

Probably, yes. We use the Dawkins definition of meme: a replicating idea, not just an image macro with a fact on it. A good post here doesn't need to teach you something. It needs to make you ask something: who, what, where, when, and especially why or how.

Science isn't a filing cabinet of facts, it's a conversation. For example, a photo of an eel or other localized wildlife counts because most people never see one, and wonder is the first step of inquiry. A car meme counts if it makes you curious about what's under the bonnet. If you want to talk about something you noticed in the world, chances are someone else wants to talk about it too.

We moderate for vibe, not category. Pruning is light, especially where a post creates interesting discussion. Experimenting is encouraged, but keep it in good faith and never punch down.
