Hawks eat meat cause they have to. WE eat meat cause it's delicious. The Hawks dies if there are too many Hawks in one feeding ground. The human fucks up his and everyone elses Habitat for centurys cause he's too lazy to change.

Except its scientifically proven, that our possibility tonevolve was Not from Hunting, but agricultural Farming. But great Shitpost

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

That's not how evolution works. Evolution doesn't have a plan, it doesn't wait, or speed up. Evolution just happens and our human ancestors would have continued to evolve regardless of agriculture. The path that evolution takes could have been very different but it would have happened. The human species is still evolving and will continue to do so until it's extinction.

It was fire ya dingus.

Fire allowed us to cook our food, making us die less from pathogens and bacteria AND making more food digestible. ESPECIALLY meat.

Agriculture was what provided our exponential expansion.

You can’t just say “it’s scientifically proven” and make it so.

Some people just don't feel comfortable killing and eating animals. Let people live their own lives.

Anyways, less people eating animal products leads to lower prices for those who do (you).

It's way easier for me to have a vegetarian diet when I'm eating at home. At restaurants the vegetarian options almost always contain the one thing I'm allergic to, so I often have no choice but to eat meat when I go out.

I read The Jungle in highschool. Not good book about food.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Actually, I believe current thinking is that we came from grassland, hence the advantage of upright walking.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Depends on how far you go back. Grasslands came after jungles/forests.

Based on some of our traits (nose shape good for diving, can control our breathing voluntarily, fingers get more grippy when wet, lack of fur), we might have even been semi-aquatic for a while.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Source on the semi-aquatic part? Looking it up only brings up the aquatic ape hypothesis which is pseudoscience.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago

Yeah, that's why I said might, since any evidence is circumstantial and could have another explanation. I did not intend to present that as fact but merely a possibility of even more extreme environment changes than jungle to grasslands that we might have had in our ancient past.

And the angel of the lord came unto me Snatching me up from my place of slumber And took me on high and higher still Until we moved to the spaces betwixt the air itself And he brought me into a vast farmlands of our own Midwest And as we descended cries of impending doom rose from the soil One thousand nay a million voices full of fear And terror possessed me then And I begged Angel of the Lord what are these tortured screams? And the angel said unto me These are the cries of the carrots, the cries of the carrots! You see, Reverend Maynard Tomorrow is harvest day and to them it is the holocaust And I sprang from my slumber drenched in sweat Like the tears of one million terrified brothers and roared "Hear me now, I have seen the light! They have a consciousness, they have a life, they have a soul! Damn you! Let the rabbits wear glasses! Save our brothers!
