I remember that one. Indeed. Being nice to people is a proper method of success.

@raakamagna  
From Doctor Who, Season 5 Episode 2, The Beast Below  
HAWTHORNE: We’ve increased speed.  
AMY: Yeah, well, you’ve stopped torturing the pilot.

@Bonklefan99  
I agree on that part. Respect is the default of any starting interaction, even with non living objects. Anything that is treated with respect will yield improved results.

@raakamagna  
However many genders there are, they might not be equal, and should be considered as separate categories, but they should by all means be afforded the same damn respect.

Wonder if Tim Pool is gonna pick on that one.

Just take it as a joke.

It says something about the state of the world today when I honestly can’t tell whether the Economist writer was being snarky or earnest with that “pioneers of gender equality” line.

@Boulder318  
thanks for sharing fren, it was a good read

@Boulder318  
Thanks, dude!

For those actually interested in the article.  
Archaeologists discover a gruesome tower of skulls in Mexico City

Aaaaand this is what happens with terrible puns and jokes. Instead of sparking laughter, it sparks debate and even tension. Way to go, you scribbler.  
That said, I find the news itself to be quite interesting as an archaelogy fan.

@Backgroundpony  
Of course bloo%$ not, don’t assume won’t you don’t know, how can you deduce I didn’t know that from my comments? But there’s bonkers funny and bonkers ‘geez what’s wrong with this idiot’. Still doesn’t fit the Derpy meme.

@Boulder318  
I guess you never laughed about a bonkers headline in your life.
 
Everyone knows that human sacrafices were not not just one gender. To believe that you would have to be ignorant and only life in fantasy-novel-land.

@A-T-S  
Happy to read archaeological history but not with unfunny commentary from that reporter. Still not really tying Derpy’s response into this, is she ignorant of murders in the name of ancient religion?

@Background Pony #95F5  
That would be lycanthropy.
 
The other I would have to google.

@A-T-S  
oh, it’s a joke  
pardon my autism then

@raakamagna  
whoa there cowboy, that there looks like a word i can’t even pronounce, much less care about. “lysenkoism”, isn’t that when you turn into a werewolf during a full moon?

@Nightmare Fuel  
If you completely refuse to follow developments in a field purely because one reporter told a joke, you’re not gonna learn very much.

@Nightmare Fuel  
I seriously can’t believe someone could be as stupid as to think human sacrifices are a good thing because “muh equalti”. The whole concept of gender equality is new age lysenkoism. How am I supposed to be equal to my sister beyond a few basic human needs! She’s a fair visual artist, i can’t draw at all! She can get pregnant, I can’t. She’s working at an exhausting office job, I’m a full time writer. We are NOT equal even if both are worthy.

@TheMasterEraser  
You could… Just run freely with the format if you want.

Don’t get it…..at ALL!

“archeologists discover tower of skulls”  
oh wow that’s interesting, what’s the history behi–  
“aztecs sacrificed women as well as men, it’s so equal!”  
aaand not worth reading

I like this meme format. Another!
