    I've seen this a lot recently. People using "evolution" as a justification for literally anything - from elderberry to treat COVID-19 to letting old people die Almost always from people in the US It's like they don't even teach evolution over there or somethinghttps://twitter.com/AlanLevinovitz/status/1244416027787759617 …

    Read the whole thing, start to finish. I’m especially struck by how “evolution,” repeated like a mantra, becomes a vehicle for just making shit up. https://twitter.com/parul_sehgal/status/1244407730183507975 …

        It is, at least it was when I was growing up in Texas. But we also teach math, and lots of Americans are saying it’s just the flu.

        Also why I've stopped showering now that I'm working from home. I'm trying to strengthen my microbiome by not disturbing the natural paleo prebiotic/macronutrient mix on my skin that they've evolved to thrive in, detoxing them, thus strengthening my immune system from corona.

        Also considering just washing in bone broth. Would that help?

        Evolution - like every other idea in history of humanity - has been misused and turned on its head from the beginning. For instance, Darwin recognised (the bleedingly obvious) centrality of COOPERATION in most life
