yes that is true, but my intent for the joke was related to enslaved colonies than slaves brought to the nation of France. So it’s more like French were there invading and colonizing another nation instead of trafficking people to their nation.

Though the question gets more nuanced when you consider some slaves were imported or shuffled around in different colonies, and along comes the question of nationhood that I still dont have an answer for: “If someone just takes over a land for long enough, does it make it that person’s land?” (i.e. US).

french’s slaves did that, not enslaved french

thank u, i write jokes as i learn random things also i see u were inspired by the bojack instagram post

while i dont have issues with GMOs. This isn’t really an example of that as its only selectively bred and then farming practices are used (like fertilizers and preventing pollination) to get seedless fruits. From what I understand, seedlessness in many fruits is done by farming work and not GMO-ing them.

quick reading through wikipedia gave some context, but nothing specific to why an egg. i think the reasoning is simply that egg is more commonly known than a cocom. which i know somewhat sounds ridiculous but im thinking that based on that egg is a very common food ingredient and commonly seen by most people (sometimes daily)* (*atleast like in developed places i’d assume). while seeing a cocom is gonna be rare to uncommon for most people at least to the scale of eggs.

secondly, with metaphors already existing like ‘coming out of your shell’. an egg would socially make more sense (easier to connect to the metaphors that already exist). so egg cracking -> coming out of your shell would be easier to presume and understand the reference then something unfamiliar or relatively uncommon. that is not to say that the metaphor of caterpillar to a butterfly isn’t common, but egg checks a lot of other ‘common’ checks here, so stastically would be used as the main metaphor more commonly. (though to note im making up what counts as important boxes and statistics here, along with what the stats are according to what i know and not any real data to link; so who knows u know)

thirdly, egg could’ve just been the luckier metaphor

community driven (initially), a mess but still functional compared to “better” version, forever modifyable by the community unlike corporate network. mess to love (so yes what u said)

what killed the internet is information overload. in many way no one can have a private or closed space. twitter for example you are bombarded with everyone’s thought on everything and before long you have a lot of information about things you dont care about, and no way to engage properly with just one of those things. you can be vulnerable on the internet, but in a mostly public and algorithmic internet, its gonna be exposed to so many people who will hate that.
