How do I explain to a person that the "red pill mentality" is stupid? - Lemmy.world

This is a genuine question, as every time I have an argument about this with someone they bring a point so utterly stupid that it leaves me stumped…

Even if you assumed a goal of reproductive success, it's idiotic to think there is a single best strategy that is unchanging. Humans evolved over tens of thousands of years, and they evolved to be adaptable. It's like trying to play a football game with the same play every time... People will catch on quickly.
