Dammit Diogenes, this is why we don't allow you in the geometry class anymore.

Can straight be defined in a nonlinear environment?
Euclid's first postulate: Give two points, there exists exactly one straight line that includes both of them.

::: spoiler I got that reference!
Behold, a featherless biped!
:::And for those who don't: Plato, a Greek philosopher, was putatively asked by a student while teaching at the Academy what the definition of a man (human) was. Plato responded that a man is a "featherless biped".
Diogenes, another Greek philosopher and infamous quick-wit, caught wind of this and thought that was the dumbest thing ever, so he gate-crashed one of Plato's lectures and pulled out a chicken which had all of its feathers plucked out and said "Behold, a man!".

I get downvoted for bringing it up, but for fuck's sake you're dumping literally everything into this community regardless of the fit. There are a dozen (I'm estimating) other communities that could benefit from the content you post but you have thus far insisted on only posting here.
Can you at least make the tiniest effort to spread content to other communities that would benefit from the increased views and potential subscriptions?
I shall await the fun police and everything's a meme comments.

At least it's better than endless American politics.

A square must also have two pairs of parallel sides.

Thank you for calling it out. Had a look at post history and I agree, blocked. Lemmy is attracting all sorts of random noise lately.

Does no one understand this is a joke, talking about parallel lines and mathematical proofs is pointless when its a fucking meme

These are parallel too. They just look that way because they are project on to the euclidean plain.

The interior angles need to be equal

Calculus can find you two pairs of parallel sides, right there on the circle!

We do understand it's a meme and a joke. Just not a very good one, because one can easily poke holes into it.

Its wrong though so the joke falls flat

Its supposed to be absurd, taking it seriously makes the already bad joke even worse

Didn't realize jokes have to be literally correct

It's not about taking it seriously. The meme wants to be a technically correct-meme, where a thing fulfills another things definition and thereby could be deemed the other thing - which creates the absurdity the meme lives off of. But in order for that kind of humour, there cannot be obvious holes in the logic of the joke and these obvious holes are very present in this meme.

This only applies in 2nd order real space. Euclidean geometry aside, I agree with at least one line could exist between two points

No it doesn't. Right angles + equal length is a sufficient condition
