Today I Learned
What did you learn today? Share it with us!
We learn something new every day. This is a community dedicated to informing each other and helping to spread knowledge.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must begin with TIL. Linking to a source of info is optional, but highly recommended as it helps to spark discussion.
** Posts must be about an actual fact that you have learned, but it doesn't matter if you learned it today. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.**
Rule 2- Your post subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.
Your post subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding non-TIL posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-TIL posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
For further explanation, clarification and feedback about this rule, you may follow this link.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.
Unless included in our Whitelist for Bots, your bot will not be allowed to participate in this community. To have your bot whitelisted, please contact the moderators for a short review.

If the the creators were serious about the monument they'd have put it far away where extremists couldn't easily bomb it. They should have been able to foresee the rise of reactionary forces as the collapse neared.
Still, plenty of time to make another.
That's where most of the extremists are, though. Maybe put it inside a hipster café or library? 🤷
Haha yeah stupid uncivilized hicks /s
Well yeah, if you're a far right extremist, you're by definition uncivilized 🤷
"The inscription read: 1)Maintain humanity under 500,000,000 in perpetual balance with nature. 2)Guide reproduction wisely – improving fitness and diversity. 3)Unite humanity with a living new language. 4)Rule passion – faith – tradition – and all things with tempered reason. 5)Protect people and nations with fair laws and just courts. 6)Let all nations rule internally resolving external disputes in a world court. 7)Avoid petty laws and useless officials. 8)Balance personal rights with social duties. 9)Prize truth – beauty – love – seeking harmony with the infinite. 10)Be not a cancer on the Earth – Leave room for nature – Leave room for nature."
Half of them aren't even clear like #8 which depends entirely on how much you value each. Maybe we should presuppose that our ideas are the best so we don't poison future generations with our equivalents.of eugenics.
Will need to make a bunch of them rather than put them where extremists cant bomb them - after all they still need to be accessible after an apocalypse. Multiple redundancy, make them cheaper, maybe less durable, but get them in so many places that there will always be a few left around. Maybe task someone with knocking out mass produced reproductions and swapping them out whenever one gets wrecked
