Is AronRa Incapable of Distinguishing Carolus Linnæus from Ernst Haeckel?

Text transscript up to 2:50:

[Tucker on Rogan:]
it's the idea that you know all 2:13 life emerge from a single cell organism 2:16 and over time

[AronRa's comment begins:]
the first evidence of that 2:19 was revealed by a pre- darwinian 2:21 Christian creationist back in 2:23 1735 [Carolus] Linnaeus tried to categorize 2:26 all living things and he discovered that 2:28 they did not fit into the body boxes of 2:30 created kinds like he was taught to 2:32 believe instead all taxonomic ranking 2:35 revealed a familiar lineage a branching 2:37 tree pattern of separated daughter sets 2:39 descending from a series of parent 2:41 categories themselves descending from 2:43 more distant ancestral 2:45 groups it had already been long 2:47 understood that life evolves under 2:49 direct observation and manipulation 2:50 producing new breeds of dogs cattle 2:53 pigeons and so on


One would expect the illustration to be from a work by Linnaeus, right?

Now, take a look at a snapshot from 2:45, shall we? Here:



Odd. Unless it's deliberately dishonest or misleading, it's very odd to illustrate a proposition about Linnaeus by an illustration from a work by Haeckel.

Perhaps Jeremy Sherman is relevant here?

Me, letter X
... That's not on whether you listen, it's on whether you are decent or not to opponents. I usually am.

Sherman, letter XI
... Here's how it seems to work for all of us: If we want someone's trust – if we want to be seen as credible by someone, we have to earn it. No one owes us trust and credibility. ...


Skipping the gobbledegook and my ire, he is ready to turn down an appeal to his decency on the ground of me not earning his trust.

So, he's really saying, if he doesn't trust me, he doesn't owe me decency. He apparently only owes decency to those whom he trusts.

Could this be a theme with AronRa's morals as well?/HGL
