One of my co-workers is a hardcore conspiracy theorist. What's more, he's apparently trained as a lawyer but working in a warehouse at near minimum wage. "Evolution is racist ideology", "the Jews control the world", "9/11 was an inside job".

What's worse is he knows what evolution is but says "adaptation doesn't count, it has to be genetic change leading to physiological differences"

I'm... Really wondering what the fuck he's smoking. Apparently he had a brain hemorrhage sometime around the time he graduated, dunno if before or after or by how much.

Darwin's model of thought was (mis)applied by the Objectivists and their ilk for the sake of their classist ideology, and social discrimination tends to go hand in hand with racism.

The pro-Israel lobby is probably the most influential in the US, to the point that just about every politician with a hope of being elected will pander to them and their demands. By extension, the Zionists have a not-insubstantial deal of control over the direction of US foreign policy; the US is one of the most internationally influential nations if for no other reason than that we've got the most powerful military and aren't quite right in the head.

Top US officials have a history of planning false-flag attacks specifically for the purpose of starting unjustified wars against minor nations in support of political agendas.


Note that I don't actually believe any of those three statements, just that as far as harebrained conspiracy theories go they at least have slightly more basis than using 'aliens' to explain everything from the Pyramids to why you woke up on a country road with amnesia and an aching anus.

Evolution is a variationist theory.

I don't really see what evolution has to do with variations in usage between different speakers of a given language.

It sounds like he's confusing Darwinian evolution with Lamarkian evolution.

Yeah, Social Darwinism is one of the most idiotic philosophies ever. How stupid does a person have to be to not be able to tell the difference between reproduction and money. They're not even similar concepts.

Ever se the Movie Wag the dog? Follows this very plotline.

Isn't it obvious? If you kill all of the poor people, then everyone will be rich! It's really obvious, because the poor people are lazy and the rich are hard workers, that's why you don't see the poor people putting as much work against this as the rich people are for!

I re-met my cousin for the first time in ten-sum years yesterday, we began talking about politics and one of his points against birth control was;
"Real rape doesn't get women pregnant. They have to enjoy sex or their bodies eat the wiggly bits we put in them."

and another ripe quote from his ever evolving mind;
"Straight people only have approximately a 2% chance of getting aids and that only accounts for having anal sex with women. Fluids are rarely re-enter the body via the penis."

I'm related to this man. :-[

Quote from: Chesterton
For, in order that men should resist injustice, something more is necessary than that they should think injustice unpleasant. They must think injustice absurd; above all, they must think it startling. They must retain the violence of a virgin astonishment. When the pessimist looks at any infamy, it is to him, after all, only a repetition of the infamy of existence. But the optimist sees injustice as something discordant and unexpected, and it stings him into action.
