The meme is a humorous comparison between the ancient Babylonian law code (the "Babylonian Code") and the current state of the world. The text on the image reads: "The Babylonian Code, 2000 BC: If you steal a house, you will be put to the house. If you steal a field, you will be put to the field." The meme is poking fun at the idea that the ancient law code is more straightforward and less corruptible than modern society.
