Patents Memes

The ultimate historical plot twist! Edison's legacy is basically the world's longest-running game of "I made this" meme. While textbooks credit him with inventing the lightbulb, historians are frantically waving their arms saying "NOPE!" Truth bomb: Joseph Swan had a working bulb before Edison, and even sued him for patent infringement. Edison just perfected the filament and had better PR skills than a modern influencer. It's like claiming you invented the sandwich because you added better mayo. Classic corporate ancestor energy!

History's greatest scientific rivalry captured in Renaissance art! Edison's over there frantically scribbling notes while eyeing Tesla's work like "hmm, that's a nice alternating current you got there... would be a shame if someone... patented it." The ultimate historical photobomb - Edison lurking behind Tesla is basically the 19th century version of stealing someone's WiFi password. The electricity wars were WILD, folks! Tesla's just trying to read in peace while Edison's playing the long game of "what's yours is actually mine, thanks."

The ultimate historical burn in Minecraft font! Tesla's contribution labeled as "CRAFT" while Edison's says "MINE" - perfectly capturing their notorious rivalry. Tesla actually invented and crafted revolutionary electrical systems while Edison was notorious for "mining" other people's ideas and claiming them as his own. The pixelated Minecraft aesthetic is just *chef's kiss* for representing how Edison essentially stole and monetized Tesla's alternating current concepts. History nerds and gamers unite in appreciating this pixel-perfect scientific shade!
