I don’t have to get past the preface to read things like:

" I should also give some space to Amotz Zahavi’s idea that altruistic donation might be a ‘Potlatch’ style of dominance signal: see how superior to you I am, I can afford to make a donation to you!"

But don’t worry, I’ll read the entire book and highlight what I think is most despicable. Is it just a Lemmy post? Yes, but this matter is important to me.

I’ll think of it as if I were writing a scientific article of low reach.

Edit: Further down the PREFACE:

"Similar feeble thoughts have been strung together to produce the impression that Darwinian social theory is reactionary in its political implications. "

. He calls his theory a Darwinian social theory! This is a joke!

Moving on.

The Market God predicts that the 8-ball will say ‘Yes’. The 8-ball says ‘No’.

The selfish gene is about applying a darwinian solution to humans. It’s where the memetic experience comes in. The Nature reporter themselves talks about the “Replicator”.

I’ve read it twice, the last time being 2021, but maybe I’ll have to read it again to resist this shit mainstream Science is trying to feed the world.

Social darwinism is wrong. The human will show itself in all its beautiful complexity despite dumb simplified theories.

“Esse país está pra alugar.” - Raul Seixas

Em outras palavras, o alquiler do mundo digital é lucrativo pra essas empresas e não é novidade. Essa organização pesada do futuro do mundo, guiando o que é possível, o que é possível no mundo “físico” e o que é possível saber. É horrível.

Um verdadeiro mundo cyberpunk onde algumas empresas ditam tecnologia e política enquanto ficamos presos em torno de carros voadores.

Vale a pena “degoogle” se você quer ter um smartphone “degoogled”.

Sorry, I rather use AI than a real person on a red carpet. I just don’t jive with Fame.

Edit: I could have put a picture with Robert Downey Jr. or something like that, but I really didn’t want to.
