Don't people know why archeologists dig people up? I think we should address this

I have a niggle (that's a British word for mild annoyance). I keep seeing memes mostly posted by gender criticals about how "oh you can identify as a woman but in xxx years your bones will be dug up and they will say that was a guy".

The accuracy archeologists can determine what sex a random skeleton or part of it is without any extra info is one question (it isn't 100% btw, best they can do is an educated guess and say something like "yeah that is most likely a guy"), but what I'd like to address is why archeologists dig up long dead people. Is there a rule that says when a person has been buried x years it's time to disturb their peace and prise open that rotted coffin lid and see what we got?

Archeology my dear netizens, is about learning about people and civilizations from the past. You know, from times there were no or very limited recorded info on which means stuff we dug up can help educate us. Now think about today in developed countries. This is the most recorded period in all of fucking history. Not only do we know who people are we can also type their name into Facebook and have instant access to dozens of their personal photos and shit. We have wikipedia and shit giving info on anything you can think of. Assuming there won't be a catastrophe destroying all tech and written records and sending humans back to the metal ages, future archeologists will have no reason to dig up anyone who was alive as of this moment.

So it does seem unlikely trans people alive as of now will be dug up in the future and "misgendered" by future archeologists. TERFs might have a hearty chuckle at the thought but it's not going to actually happen.

In the future archaeologists will have dig up bones in order to prove that people in the past were so retarded that they thought they could change their gender at will. Otherwise nobody would believe that anyone could be so stupid. They'll show that the person identified as female, and then they'll show the obviously male skeleton, and everyone will be amazed. Some will swear it's fake because it's so outlandish.

They can usually tell from the pelvis if all else fails. But they've gotten that wrong before too. They are usually pretty accurate. But when all you've got is a bone fragment they usually have to guess. However, if we approach future archaeology from the standpoint that science will be far more advanced then trannies are not gonna fool anyone.

We don't know what the culture will be like in the future. But if it's anything sane they won't pretend said skeleton was female because feels over reals.

you're giving this way too much thought lol. the bone structure thing is just a way to dunk on retards who think they can chemically transform themselves into an anime girl. it's a reminder that their body contains immutable signs of their birth gender. that's all.

Archaeology is a rather "WEIRD" invention, there's a reason when Europeans started it in the 19th century most of the civilisations they dug up were completely unknown to the locals.
 
Dude we are already losing things from the 1990's because of media formats becoming outdated and things not being converted. This may be the most documented time in human history, but the great, great majority of that documentation is in the hands of corporations who don't need anything but the cliffs notes to last past the previous 5 years, and archive storage is expensive.
I'm not even that old and there are entire communities I used to hang out on as a teenager/in college that flat out do not exist anymore, nor do any of the pictures we shared or posts we wrote.

It's an example of another British word, 'hyperbole', which means a claim that is exaggerated for effect and not to be taken at face value like an autist.

The point of the expression is to highlight how so many transpeople (transwomen in particular) so obviously and blatantly not match their claimed gender in life that the apparentness of this will last centuries in the future. The emphasis is on drawing attention to their widespread inability to pass as women, in appearance, physicality, habit or behaviour, in spite of their militant insistence to the contrary. The meme is not about the capabilities of the archaeological profession in the future, it is mocking the complete failure of the present day deception, predicated on the biological reality that men are men, and women are women.

Does that bring you any comfort?

Hey look at OP. They are dumb.

Digital shit isn't going to be stored in a way where anyone's going to have archived facebook profiles 2000 years from now, and even if they did for some reason when they dig up the remains of people from a graveyard with headstones that have long since crumbled they probably aren't going to be able to match anyone to the information that existed on archaic, unstable technology from a couple millennia ago.

They will go to do some study trying to chart physiological changes over time, come across a burial site with no records attached, then do the usual archeological process of piecing together skeletal fragments and describing all the basic information including the physical gender.
They aren't going to dig through the ancient archives for some dude in a dress on social media and decide "Welp we think this one is Lillith Gender, no need for further inquiry".

Ofc for most transexuals nobody for the rest of human existence will care about them or see them as special at all, likely viewing them collectively as bizarre aberrations within a historical footnote, which for deranged athiestic narcissists probably stings at least as much as having their birth sex written down on their papers.
