Anyways, people develop technology because of hardship and scarcity. Why bother building a proper house when you're going to have to move the next season. When there's too many people you need to settle down, plant shit and then build walls so other people won't steal your stuff. Now all of a sudden you have kings, politicians, religion, and a 40-hour work week all up in your shit telling you what to do.
Why do all that when you can follow the buffalo with the seasons, pick and eat berries, fish for salmon, sleep whenever you want, fuck whenever you want, etc. I'm not entirely sure the best side won w.r.t. to "colonization". |
I think your post actually jogged my memory either from those exhibits or documentaries I’ve watched which basically explained that hunter gatherer society VS industrialization etc. lol
It’s the same thing monkey societies though I believe, once they get to a certain number society basically crumbles because you can no longer rely on other members of your pack. So eventually in that hunter gatherer society you get wars or somthing that either controls population growth, or you become industrialized
The excuse of not having a written language isn’t exactly a solid defense when you’re basically playing a game of telephone at that point. Hence all these land claims in Canada that have 4-5 different tribes claiming it’s theirs. Doesn’t really work when one guy holds the knowledge gets delirious with a fever lol
