The reason we don’t see ‘pre-today humans’ walking around is that humans and other primates, like monkeys, have common ancestors. Over millions of years, different environmental pressures led to diverse evolutionary paths. Monkeys continued evolving into various species, just as our ancestors evolved into modern humans. It’s not a case of one transforming directly into another but branching paths from shared roots. #EvolutionExplained
Right, but what the fuck happened in Stoke??
Right? The premise of this meme is dumb, but is Stoke-on-Trent the Florida of England? I feel like this could be a really funny joke and I just don’t know what it is. And I want to know.
In England the joke is more than the next town over are subhumans. This goes for every town. Sometimes mutually. Think Shellbyville/Springfield rather than Florida man. It’s all just local slander, you could just as easily say Chatham, or Grimsby, or Cornwall.
Idk… Have you been to Stoke?
On a cold rainy night?
Would you offer your leg to the dog with the blue orchids?
Thank you for adding context!
It’s not dumb you’re just ignorant of the context.
Things you dont understand aren’t inherently dumb
No, that’s a really dumb critique of evolution. Plenty of other people have explained it in this comment section.
I mean the humans of that time, and the “chimps” of that time. They’ve obviously gone off and had their own evolutionary track, and to my point, done so uncontested.
Thatcher. All the work there was coal or high energy near the coal (pottery). So when coal went, and so did all it’s down stream industry (pottery). So there is no work and massive multigenerational unemployment. The place is a wreck. It needs massive investment that not only is it not getting but has never got.
Also, hominids have a tendency to kill and/or rape other, slightly different hominids.
Early humans existed at the same time as several others in the Homo genus. The first humans to leave Africa “replaced” existing populations of Neanderthals and Denisovans, basically our evolutionary cousins, through interbreeding and competition for resources.
also we killed a lot of them didnt we
There are not millions of the creature on the left, they are just a common ancestor that long ago diverted in to humans and OTHER apes… You fucking idiot.
Humans are Apes
No Oxford comma, it’s inclusive, “humans and other apes” :)
Homo sapiens killed and outfucked all the other species extant in their genus, forgot, and then made this meme.
Thanks for attending my TED Talk on the Fermi paradox.
Outfucked? Now I am proud.
Hey, we also interbred
See: outfucked
Man? Woman? Non-human? Any hole’s a goal.
The answer is that homosapiens out competed them and killed them off. There ya go. Easy answer to an easy question.
Not to mention the “chimps” pointed to in the beginning of the sequence aren’t meant to be proper chimps anyway, just a similar looking common ancestor.
It’s also just an artist’s representation of humanity’s path through evolution and is in no way meant to represent how evolution actually works.
Yep. We had no reason to compete with chimps
We have plenty of them here in Germany too.
This is even more stupid than the question why there are still apes when they supposedly evolved into humans. I love it!
Or is this a serious question? In that case, I can explain but someone else already did
Or is this a serious question?
It is not a serious community.

So true.
Baldwin’s Gate go crazy
Well, if you wanna get serious about it, the wild difference in appearance between people is the only proof needed of those in-betweeners.
Facial structure, height, width, hair colour and type etc. Every difference that sets us apart is proof we are the end result of the mass, indiscriminate fucking that occured in the past.
What? No, the physical difference in ethnicities is not due to different ethnicities having romped around with different irritation of prior human species, it’s almost entirely epigenetic.
Different ethnicities with the same basic genes were subjected to different environments. This interaction with the environment over long periods of times caused these same genes to express themselves in different ways.
Your claim is coincidentally (I hope unintentionally)based on debunked “science” like phrenology, who’s practitioners liked to propose that non white races were less evolved/mixes of modern humans with proto humans.
My claim is based on being completely not serious despite my saying so and waiting for someone else to correct me, as that is an expected rule of the internet.
Idk, I think that may have been a rule of the internet at one point. Now it feels just as likely to spawn some new rehashed version of phrenology.
Really? I felt it says we’re all the soup of our ancestors.
