I think that has mostly been debunked. Even the hunter gatherers were much more gathering than hunting, in the big picture. And fishing is probably more relevant than meat (if we’re making that distinction). And later it was really agriculture that made our species what it is and it’s very much the grains (and rice) that made the big difference.
This is actually a quote I picked up from a t-shirt once produced by Ryan North, creator of Dinosaur Comics, that amused me and stuck in my brain. Are you calling Ryan North, creator of Dinosaur Comic stupid as fuck? Because them’s fightin’ words.
I saw aTed Talk years ago that posited that the thing that sets humans apart is that we are ‘coctivores’ - the species that cooks its food. Interesting stuff.
Dude. You have some kind of problem with steak fries and a salad? That is not meat by the way but pootaaato and lettuce. My existence is one of understanding and comprehension but yours is not.
I’m starting to think you’re trolling me. But in case you really are this stupid, I was reacting to this part of your statement: “We got here as a species by tasty tasty meat.”
I’m not you just go around calling people stupid as fuck(only you can’ type it out) and you get upset when someone calls you on it. You sound vegan to me.
We got here as a species by tasty tasty meat. Some steak fries and light salad are optional.

Not a vegan btw.
I think you are giving a very eurocentric description of early humanity
You think? Most of the great fishing civilisations I think of are (South East) Asian, Indian, Japanese etc.
(Some of that might be based on Age of Empires info)
I’m mostly referencing your allusion to agriculture as a developmental milestone
Heh, fish are meat.
I eat meat, but this is stupid as f.

Umm sure why not. fuck that guy and his little dog too
So you got here by veggies alone?
We are this thing called “omnivores.” If your brain worked, you might bother to find out what that means. It would revolutionize your whole existence.

Peak carnist brain. Sniffing their own farts too long.
Do you want less people to eat meat? Or do you just want to be a righteous snob on the internet?
Because those goals are mutually exclusive
Does being vegetarian make you lose your sense of humour?
Just a normal person. The majority of us eat meat. A sad minitory of people can’t accept and get amusingly butt hurt by it.
