dank memes

Rules:

  1. All posts must be memes and follow a general meme setup.

  2. No unedited webcomics.

  3. Someone saying something funny or cringe on twitter/tumblr/reddit/etc. is not a meme. Post that stuff in /c/slop

  4. Va*sh posting is haram and will be removed.

  5. Follow the code of conduct.

  6. Tag OC at the end of your title and we'll probably pin it for a while if we see it.

  7. Recent reposts might be removed.

  8. Tagging OC with the hexbear watermark is praxis.

  9. No anti-natalism memes. See: Eco-fascism Primer

Agriculture is the Original Sin, the fledgling ruling classes used that Forbidden Fruit to lure people out of Eden and into the hell of class based society

I just read the comic Sapiens, which argues that the agricultural revolution has been a horrible deal for humanity on the whole. We traded in a relatively chill, egalitarian, communal and unconstrained existence, for one of endless toil, exploitation and subjugation by elite classes.
