My man. I asked "what are you monkeys doing?" In guild wars 2 and got permanently banned.
Careful what animals you speak of these days.

I have a feeling the filters might have thought you were using racist terminology. I had a comment removed once for supporting eugenics. My comment was about how to organize students by different types of demographics in excel. 🙃

I guess we cannot expect them to work perfectly, but now I know how fast those filters work. Hit enter for the comment, and it was immediately removed.

Can someone explain the title? Wtf does this have to do with evolution?

u/SkinInevitable604 2h ago
I think proving humans and moneys are similar / descended from the same ancestors

u/CoffeeWanderer 1h ago
Yep, there are two groups that are called "Monkeys". The Old World and New World monkeys, for a long time it was thought that they were the most closely related to each other, and Apes were "cousins" to both groups.
Now it's pretty clear that Old World Monkeys are closer to Apes than either of them are to New World Monkeys.
So, what gives? At the very least, one must agree that the last common ancestor between apes and both kind of monkeys must be a monkey itself, so apes descend from monkeys. But also, there's not "evolving out" of a group, so apes themselves must be monkeys too.
This video of course has nothing to do with that, but I find this fascinating. Like how birds are reptiles and snakes are lizards.

Which is a massive stretch of a conclusion to make. An animal acting like or imitating humans doesn’t “confirm” the theory of evolution. An animal can imitate some types of human behavior without being closely related to people.
The statement “confirming the theory of evolution” almost seems like an intentional overstatement meant to get people to argue about it. In other words, ragebait meant to drive engagement.

OP sent the following text as an explanation why their post fits here:
The unexpected part is that after seeing the men jumping, the monkey unexpectedly starts imitating them and jumping too. The monkey copying the men is the unexpected twist.
Does this explanation fit this subreddit? Then upvote this comment, otherwise downvote it.

This is not unexpected. Not even a little. There’s literally a phrase “monkey see monkey do” that tells you what you’re going to see

Ahh they’re not lol. Imitating is usually the sign of low level intelligence. Intelligence, yes. But low level.

u/alienproxy 2h ago
Imitation and the mirror neurons that support it are the foundations of cultural transmission, communication, and empathy. It doesn't necessarily mean "high intelligence," but it doesn't necessarily mean low intelligence either. It's just a requirement for is to achieve what we have achieved as a species.

u/InevitableHorror1342 2h ago
Agreed. I meant at its core, this form of imitation, in no way confirms Monkeys smarter. A lot of animals can imitate basic functions
