Actually, we're having an argument about it right now!
Cannabis growers, botanists, scientists. As research on the plant has been allowed in the last decade, these specfic structures have been defined, that's why it's the modern definition.
Oh yeah, super common argument, old heads especially. That image is at least a decade old and has served well!
Most scientific studies and even most modern literature identify that structure in the image as the bract. Whereas the cannabis calyx is a few cells thick and covers the seed, part of the perianth. it's not visible until a seed has expanded.
Lemme give you an example:

It's funny tho, this study calls out the argument.
Despite all this you still see it both ways, or bract (calyx)/calyx(bract). Calyx was the term for a long time.
Cannabis growers tend to use the words bract and calyx interchangeably. In actuality, the little oval shape with hairs coming out is actually a bract. In cannabis the actual calyx is a sheath of cells around the thing that becomes the seed once fertilized.
A cannabis flower is just a collection of bracts. We tend to colloquially call the fat pair of little bracts that form at the base of the buds where they branch into leaves, the calyx
Do you know the genetics of the plant? That looks like a "grinspoon" or "string of pearls" mutation. There's another version called willowing, but the leaves are twisted when it's that.
Check out the Dr. Grinspoon strain. That thing might be a pain to trim, but it should smoke great!
This has real "We'll write the address of people with Kamala Harris signs in their front yard" energy.
Naw fam, you tilted. Frfr.
There were like 2.3 million people living in Gaza and at best guess 42k have been killed. That's a best guess and most estimates say at least.
Initially, Germany had around 500k Jewish people. Around 300k of those people were able to flee, although many not far enough. Of the remaining 200k, about 25% were killed in concentration camps or through some other horror.
As the Nazis gathered more territory, they began the systematic, machine-like murder of European Jews. As a direct example, Poland had over 3 million Jewish people, 90% of them were killed in the Holocaust in concentration camps.
I don't think we really need to compare genocides to say this is a genocide, especially not to the Holocaust.
