Hmm? What does evolutionary fitness have to do with the barbarians destroying art they had no hope of imitating that honors a philosophical achievement that no random pedophile warlord could even hardly grasp?
I mean, literally? Foolish choices of the past are limiting economic opportunities of the present, meaning they will have less success compared to their peers, other nations. The concept of natural selection doesn’t have to be limited to literal generational gene transfer, but can be applied to other areas. I mean technically you might be better served thinking of it more in terms of game theory or some shit, but a hand-waving application of natural selection isn’t terrible.
Natural selection though

Gotcha. The Afghani of the future will be worse off because of the present. Now I understand what you were communicating.
It wasn’t actually my comment, just my interpretation of what they were trying to say. Still, I’m fairly confident that’s what they were getting at.
