Can you really blame people for pushing accuracy over humour in a time where so much misinformation is spread (both maliciously and via incomprehension by the reader) via jokes and memes?

Oh my god lighten up. Why would someone spread misinformation about this subject? So no more humour for anyone in these terrible times. Unless it is scientifically accurate ofcourse

That's why I wrote intentionally or by misunderstanding from the reader?

There's plenty of kids and people of varying levels of education on here, a lot may not know how fetal development works, what's so bad in finding out more about it?

Don't strawman. It's not like the joke was taken off for not being scientifically accurate, lol.

People clarifying on the incorrect parts of a joke or humorous sentence doesn't detract from the joke, especially since this subreddit isn't exclusively humorous and thus it's not implicit it's a joke.

You're supposed to read the showethought, laugh/smile, go read the comments, see people clarifying.

If you already knew and it was obvious for you you can just go "duh" and move on, no harm done. If you didn't know you can go "huh, TIL" and move on, not only no harm done, but you now know something new.

How's that bad?

Well, that's what the comment section is for, you can enjoy the joke for what it is but people are allowed to criticize it. Would you rather every comment be "haha true"?

It's a forum. We can appreciate both the post and the discussion that derives from it. Also OP is a bot

Haven't you seen the hundreds of posts saying a vagina is a 3D printer? Yeah, people actually believe it.
