In this episode, Rik from Planet Vulcan draws a straight line from the mindset and the actions of white European colonialists in the 19th Century to the mindset and the actions of would-be intelligent designers in our own time, particularly within the Progressive movement that began in the late nineteenth century and continues to this day. Rik notes that in these two cases, and in any agenda based on intelligent-design thinking, the outcomes seldom match the intentions, and actual outcomes in many cases have been appalling.
Earthlings are not generally schooled in the thinking that emerges from a study of evolutionary processes, especially as it applies to your socioeconomic systems; you seldom question the idea that intelligent design is necessary; and many of you are surprised, even disbelieving, when they are exposed to the idea of spontaneous emergent order, how much it explains and how it opens the door to better thinking.
Prepare to be exposed.
