Not arguing about the existence of probably better societies in the past (it’s also hard to argue about things in the very long gone past).
But where are they today? How is any of that applicable to our current world? Hunter-Gatherrers are gone. We’re consumers now. Worker-ants. The only reason those native societies are still there, is that they have got nothing anyone wants. If they would’ve, they would’ve been eradicated too. Like every other civilization that were weaker.
But hey, I absolutely don’t want to convince you otherwise. Would be futile anyway.
To quote Dostoyevski (I’m pretty positive it was him):
“I have seen the truth. I have seen and I know that people can be beautiful and happy. I will not and cannot believe that evil is the normal condition of mankind.”
