RE: How Profits Make Us Less Humane
We've been stagnant for 10k years, since we went from equal and truly free people to the class divide that has suppressed the masses all that time.
You're ignoring the existence of chieftains, little monarchs, that ruled over us during that period. Are the archaeologist of today finding the ordinary graves of ordinary humans or that of the rulers? Even then some animals were more equal than others.
That's another negative my friend; 10k years later a handful of us went to the moon, the rest of us are still asking "when moon?", "when Lambo?" ;-)
Fair enough. But 10k years later you've got two of us arguing on the blockchain-powered website instead of worrying whether or not we'll please the local warlord ;-)
Those didn't exist before we stopped being nomadic tribes; those existed after the invention of the aforementioned plough, before we settled down in towns, cities, city-states, states and nations eventually. You're making my point here, for which I'm grateful :-)
Warlords are indeed local, and always on the prowl for additional localities. With that I refer to the previous point ;-)
