What I hate so much about that, is all the "evidence" just points to some near extinction level event that humans worldwide suffered.
And obviously for that to have happened, it means there had to be a lot more people.
Like, entire cities/tribes/whatever were wiped out everywhere, but some had individuals survive. Which explains how "the last two people" could have kids who just happen to later have spouses and kids of their own without any explanation for where the new people came from.
They were just outside of walking distance.
Over the 300,000 plus years anatomically modern humans have been on Earth, that's probably happened a bunch. Hell, we've had 2-3 actual ice ages over that span.
We don't know shit about 250k of those years.
From what I understand (and as a Christian), it's those Christians that take a literal reading of the Bible, not understanding that those parts of the Bible aren't meant to be read literally but are about the WHY of creation rather than the HOW. It's about WHO God is rather than how He did things.
Either that or Genesis is just an explanation made up by a people group that had little to no idea how anything in the natural world works lol

Child labor.
Despite progress, child labour still affects nearly 138 million children worldwide
https://data.unicef.org/topic/child-protection/child-labour/>
Affects is such a strange way to put it. Like, "they caught a case of child labor."

Easy to say, but I'd argue it's baked in.
“Fifty thousand years ago there were these three guys spread out across the plain and they each heard something rustling in the grass. The first one thought it was a tiger, and he ran like hell, and it was a tiger but the guy got away. The second one thought the rustling was a tiger and he ran like hell, but it was only the wind and his friends all laughed at him for being such a chickenshit. But the third guy thought it was only the wind, so he shrugged it off and the tiger had him for dinner. And the same thing happened a million times across ten thousand generations - and after a while everyone was seeing tigers in the grass even when there were`t any tigers, because even chickenshits have more kids than corpses do. And from those humble beginnings we learn to see faces in the clouds and portents in the stars, to see agency in randomness, because natural selection favours the paranoid. Even here in the 21st century we can make people more honest just by scribbling a pair of eyes on the wall with a Sharpie. Even now we are wired to believe that unseen things are watching us.”
― Peter Watts, Echopraxia

I kinda get it. Everyone needs something to look forwards too. Sadly, for some, there's only the idea of afterlife for that.

Tips. How ridiculous is it that restaurant owners guilt us into paying their employees salaries because they are too cheap to pay them a living wage? How unjust is it that we chose to tip the people who bring our food from the kitchen to our table and leave the hundreds of other service workers without tips?

In the USA: complicated tax returns that require tax software and/or professional help. It's a rent-seeking scam.
Thank the fucking tax software lobbies for that. Assholes

Private health insurance.

On that note, Ben Shapiro as well.
Andrew Tate, though that may be dangerous as he'll probably turn into a martyr.

Religion.
It served a purpose when societies were first moving from hunting and gathering to agriculture. A community needed to coalesce around something tangible for resource sharing, protection, decision making, etc...
It's why, from a societal evolution perspective, we went from totemic religions based on fertility and family groups, to mass religions with defined hierachies and roles, because the evolution or religions reflect that evolutions of society at the time.
We don't need that anymore. It does more harm than good in the modern world.

I thought phone numbers and traditional telephone service would be dead by now. Instead, purely internet-based communication services often use them as an identifier.

Fossil fuel subsidies. No longer needed since we have more viable alternatives, and they just contribute to global warming, and litter.

Well, facism seems like the obvious choice right now, but I'm going deeper and choosing bigotry.

Charli...
The oldest two mechanisms of authenticating on credit cards.
From oldest to newest, they are:
-
Printed data on card.
-
Magstrip (which basically has the same data in machine-readable form).
-
Smartcard chip with contacts.
-
Wireless.
The first two mechanisms hand over all the data required to impersonate the cardholder whenever used, which isn't very secure. Yes, there's value to keeping a mechanism around for a while to permit transition time, but we should have had tap-to-pay hardware on PCs and phones and the like a long time ago.

July and August Add them to the end of the calendar or rename them properly, there is no reason September-December should have been globally accepted out of order for over 2000 years
