Cultural Memes

The mathematical beauty of stereotypes! This meme captures the self-similarity property of fractals in human culture—where each group views the next smaller subset with the same dismissive attitude. Just like the Mandelbrot set reveals identical patterns at different scales, humans create nested hierarchies of judgment: Americans → Europeans → Italians → Southern Italians. Meanwhile, that project deadline keeps receding into the distance faster than the convergence of an infinite geometric series. Next time your international collaboration stalls, remember: you're not experiencing workplace friction—you're witnessing mathematical self-similarity in action!
