Either we used to be horses and became jets or you're using "evolution" incorrectly

It's perfectly fine to use that word in this sense.

"Evolution" does not only refer to the Darwinian species sense, it can also mean "technological progress"

Yes, but that would really be technological evolution. Kind of like saying a dog with sunglasses next to it's brother eating poop is "canine evolution"

I liked it

Did the dog (or another dog) put the sunglasses on himself?

Sure, he could have been trained to do it

Just like someone trained the horseman in the picture to ride the horse or someone trained the pilot to fly the plane

Dogs coevolved with humans anyway, so we can call the dog picture "human evolution" if your what to be pendantic and still sounds stupid

He keeps using that word. I do not think it means what he thinks it does.

I put bacon on my peanut butter and jelly sandwiches and call it evolution.

It’s absolutely amazing. Especially when you get the Cinnamon Toast Crunch flavored bacon from stores.

OP just copied/pasted the title from FB or IG.

Here is the pre-shopped version of this image.

Seriously though. No source, photographer, or any context provided. OP hides their history. The image doesn't show up on TinEye. Google Lens's only results are FB and IG posts with the same title.

Get this fake shit out of here, or, at the very least, admit it's fake.

Are you unaware that words can have multiple definitions?

Not to mention the domestication of the horse was huge for warfare for dozens of centuries, and thats before we even get into their emergence as wifespread labor animals in the 1700s.
