So this is obviously satire but reading this it just sounded way too close to current reality for comfort.

I know that parts of the document are acme levels over the top but other parts sincerely read as if written by your average Maga idiot

I was tired of being a Darwinist. Now I follow the writings of Dickens; I'm a Dickhead.

How soon before someone is citing this article as evidence? 😩

At first I thought it was satire, but when I saw the writer had the scientific Pokédex entries I knew it was legit

This evidence is certainly in contrast to those who believe, based on the writings of Charles Dickens alone, that the Earth is around 4.5 billion years old.

🤣 this writer is genius

Clicked thinking it was legit. Good find OP!

We’re expected to believe that the peacocks personally recounted their lineage? In English? I feel like the author is just making things up at that point.

You got me. This one is too good.

Only a few bites because people, understandably, aren't biting that headline.

Share a screenshot of the article instead and they'll be all over it.

The inclusion of Pokédex Entry numbers is great.
Also, I like the sources cited for the paper. One of them is "Pigeon-Elephant Theory: the real origin of humans – Journal of Astrological Big Data Ecology by B McGraw"
