Talk about whatever, respecting the rules established by Lemmygrad. Failing to comply with the rules will grant you a few warnings, insisting on breaking them will grant you a beautiful shiny banwall.

A community for comrades to chat and talk about whatever doesn't fit other communities

The shit that gets spread about him might be the most cartoonishly evil sounding things like being responsible for every famine in every Socialist country and thinking genes weren't real. Anyone have any good sources about the man and his work?

Oh damn, there's four Lysenkoists now? That's a huge boost to their numbers. I would join them, but the human-ape hybrid thing is a completely myth, so he's lost my vote.

You're right of course, and I could've been better in my wording there, his experiments did sometimes yield positive results, that was most likely a result of epigenetics, though he himself did not understand this, as genetics was not developed enough at the time to properly explain it. It was much more of a coincidence than anything else.

Too much of a broke ass bot user for that I feel. All those subs and only 400 livestream viewers.
