When people dismiss evolution as a conspiracy, I find it confusing. To me, evolution and innovation are essentially the same thing. Evolution is about growth, adaptation, and the development of complexity over time, and that’s exactly what innovation is too.

Innovation builds upon what exists, making it more advanced, more intricate—just like evolution. If someone claims they don’t believe in evolution, are they saying they also don’t believe in innovation? Because when you look at how technology, society, or even nature advances, it’s always a process of building on top of what’s already there.

Think about it: as things evolve, whether it’s species or technologies, they adapt to their environments and refine their functions. Just like innovation refines ideas, systems, and technologies, both processes involve complexity emerging from simpler forms. Evolution isn’t just about biology; it’s the underlying principle that drives progress in everything from life forms to inventions.

Even fundamental laws like gravity or thermodynamics have evolved in our understanding of them. These concepts may not change, but our knowledge and applications of them do. This is where evolution and innovation overlap—both are about deepening complexity, fine-tuning systems, and finding better ways to navigate challenges.

So when people dismiss evolution, I wonder—are they also dismissing innovation? Both are processes of adapting, advancing, and progressing. Neither is a conspiracy; they are simply the mechanisms that guide how things grow and improve.
