>brooo… we totally, like, hunted giant beasts with spears because I found this bone and a stick in the ground
honestly most of history sounds like schizo ramblings, predictive programming and shock porn
>oy vey, watch this movie about the horrors of Holocaust! how terrible, isn't it! doesn't it make you feel better about your own suffering?
>oy vey, just accept getting gassed, it's ok because human nature is really psychopathic and it's just a cycle of history! kill or be killed!
of course there are many psychopaths, most normies are high in dark triad, but I feel the psychopathy is a relatively recent development and humans get PTSD when they have to kill someone, so I don't see how violent genocides and wars could be even real (nowadays, maybe, because people have been desensitized to violence by movies and literature, but, like, 100 years ago? sounds like larp)
I can't even examine most of the supposed artifacts and we know for a fact that people will make stuff up for cheap controversy like James Ossuary or the Piraha language meme
history is totally malleable based on politics, like, if you want to prove womyn are weak and oppressed and feminism is some divine revenge, you get this narration of everlasting patriarchy, men oppressing womyn since the dawn of time, but if you want to prove womyn are ackshually strong, independent and feminism is about restoring the original order, you get this narration of pre-agricultural tribes (and literally the rest of the world potentially, depending how hard you want to shill your idea) being ackshually egalitarian if not matriarchal
if you crack a textbook from 50 years ago, you'll get descriptions how primitive tribes have extreme gender roles, to the point of treating genders like different species (ironically predictive programming for trannydom, starting the "gender is cultural" meme), but in today's textbooks you'll find out that ackshually this Amazon tribe with like 5 members has 50 categories of gender and they totally perform gender transition surgeries with their stone tools
also, it's weird how humans were supposedly psychopathic savage apes, but then out of sudden they learn to write and instead of writing slice-of-life (non-)fiction, they go straight to myths, philosophy, religions aka stuff that helps you cope with mortality, the evil of the world, guilt etc.
tl;dr: not too long ago a bunch of psychopaths made up so-called "history" consisting of humans acting evil and violent to make their violent acts seem pale in comparison; human nature (especially male) may be gentle and caring (with deviation, of course) but they use shock porn (violent movies, stories) to induce trauma and brutalize the society
