    That’s not evolution in a biological sense. I’m not saying there can be no societal progress. It’s clearly happening and we need much more of it. But right now we’re also looking in a time of regression of societal progress and that’s by no means limited to the US.

      evolution is not restricted to the origin of the species context fyi. Communism is an evolution of social democracy (or is it democratic socialism… i can remember rn).

      If we’re going to change the power structure we need to socially evolve beyond the mentality that created the same power structure we’re replacing.
