Let's discuss the controversy surrounding evolutionary psychology.

Personally I believe the approach certainly has merit under the right circumstances but the problem is that it's now become a meme ideology for pseuds to poorly justify their presuppositions about human nature i.e. incel blackpillers who believe that women are exclusively attracted to massive violent chads with dark personality traits.

There is also the problem with sparse evidence and unfalsifiability. I swear these brainlets think that anthropologists have a massive archive somewhere which meticulously details all the relevant developmental phases in homo sapien prehistory or something and this is all "settled science". We're not even remotely close to the evidentiary level you would need to safely assume the shit you hear evopseuds spouting.

Thoughts?
