So much of the Science that Democrats claim to venerate was created by white men, who they will try to erase.

The Science! that Democrats venerate does not even include basic biology.

“Every record has been destroyed or falsified, every book rewritten, every picture has been repainted, every statue and street building has been renamed, every date has been altered. And the process is continuing day by day and minute by minute. History has stopped. Nothing exists except an endless present in which the Party is always right.”
― George Orwell, 1984

This should be a disaster. All the classifications are in Latin. Some are in Greek most notably, ophtahlmology.

Discussing botany with someone from Japan or India is possible because although the languages may be a hinderance, the Latin is not.

I hate these people.

What they leave out is that Charles Darwin did the same in his infamous book Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection, or the Preservation of Favoured Races. Yep, there's a reason we're not told the full title.

Not only was it written during the Second Great Awakening when European Christians, especially Protestant Anglos in England and the U.S. were pushing heavily for abolition. (To which they were successful in England before his book, then in the U.S. after his book.) But it has detail on things like his observance that red ants use black ants as slaves and that the red ant colonies might cease to exist without their slaves (pushing to keep black folks in their place as he saw it). And to those who didn't connect the dots, he wrote a sequel titled The Descent of Man. In that he fully connects the dots between natural selection and keeping blacks at a subhuman level.

This was "scientific racism" in the 19th century, was the argument in the 20th century for segregation, and is basically the holy book of the atheist left today and the basis for us having to teach our kids in schools that we all go here through natural selection.

Martin Luther King was a notorious womanizer and simply used them for his pleasure. We need to tear down his statues and memorials and to get rid of his birthday as a holiday. I’m woke now!

I guess we can keep all the street names as they serve as warnings.

I read somewhere that he was a Republican. If true, that should disqualify him for having a statue AND streets named after him. /s

> Anyone found imperfect in any way must be canceled in every way. <

And of course everyone is imperfect. So if they wantcha, they gotcha.

But here’s the thing. The Left will only destroy those folks who are not on their approved list.

Hillary Clinton was once strongly against gay marriage. But Hillary is on the approved list. So she gets a pass.

Senator Robert Byrd was not just in the Klan. He was a high Klan official. But Byrd is on the approved list. So he gets a pass.

Martin Luther King once declared that homosexuality was a mental disorder. But MLK is on the approved list. So he gets a pass.

Etc.

If they were honest, they’d rename it the ‘Lysenko Arboretum’.

It recognized Carl Linnaeus...

Now they recognized Karl Marx.

Hope the alums get wind of this and dry up any/all donations.

Botany or Zoology exams should be a hoot.

“What is the name of ... ‘this’ ... animal/plant?”

Well, Professor, it is now Obamus Michellus.

And you thought it was just a Porcine.

The University is not wrong about Carl Linnaeus. What the guy proposed about human beings wasn’t just goofy. It was downright toxic.

That people his toxic taxonomy and theories develop from it seriously has done tremendous disservice to humanity.
