I’m not sure which part of this you think is assuming the conclusion. That our values are not maximally about power acquisition should be clear. The part saying evolution is continuously pushing the world is what I’ve tried to explain in the post, though it should be read as “there is a force pushing in that direction” rather than “the resulting force is in that direction”.
