I might disagree with literally every point he makes. I used to agree with at least the whole rape of nature thing, but I've more recently become aware of just how terrible environmental destruction was pre-industrial revolution and especially as we go further back. For instance, evidence of catastrophic deforestation throws the civilization collapse hypotheses centered on Minoan and ancient Greek culture into a tailspin. And the macro-fauna, holy shit! For every ill allegedly caused by technology, technology offers solutions that we use today that were unavailable, and the disasters we would face without technology to aid us now, well, again holy shit. We also have next to no evidence about the greater human psychological condition, so it's extremely dishonest to beg the question there, and I suspect we were mentally unhealthier.
Yes humans still had a significant impact on the environment since well before the Industrial Revolution but it almost certainly not only accelerated but also qualitatively changed for the worse. It hasn't been that long since the Industrial Revolution and since then its become evident that our biosphere can't handle another few hundred years of this level of environmental damage.

You're right that we can't really know much about the mental states of people who lived before us. But in some ways I think they were healthier. For instance, the lack of artificial lighting means that the average person's sleep cycle was far more in tune with the day/night cycle which is healthier. Our organic social units were also more robust and I think there's a plethora of benefits that came with that that have since been diluted or lost.

But again, there's a lot of uncertainty in what I'm talking about here. And as I said, I don't want to discount the good that has come about since the Industrial Revolution either.
 
Oh', that cuts deep. Maybe if you repeat your played out material 900 more times, it will cut deeper. LOL

You're a joke, bud. You got nothin'. Erase your sig. At the very least, those guys aren't as boring as you.

You have enjoyed my sig. Anyways, enjoy this. Your father is the reason you are so spiteful, an incel in plain clothes. Yeah, I went there. Enjoy buddy. This will be very fun, as long as your continue to participate.
 
@HereticBD

Does grandma know this is what goes on?. What a disappointment. Where are her grandchildren?

Wait, am I the incel, or is my father the incel?

Thus are the nonsensical statements of the flustered...

Your father is not an incel, although he is also not the 'alpha' you have described him as.

I bet he would be ashamed you even mention him.

Reasonable points and there are ways that things are both better and worse on a lot of different scales and stuff. But Teddy seems to have fallen for a romantic idea of what man is that involves living alone in the woods where our social development doesn't outpace genetic rates of change so much. That's the only way he makes sense to me, is as a crazy loner naturalist.

Take a lap, bud.

????

Take a lap? With pleasure buddy. How is dad, aka your father you have described as alpha? Does dad know his son is sub 6 feet and spends all day describing him on an MMA forum? LOL reply to me again. Take a lap, how about I take your soul and you don't get to post here anymore?

Breathe...

I apologize for rustling you to this point of madness. Well, kind of anyways. It's been quite entertaining.

Give him grand-kids, that's all that matters.
 
Quit stinking up the thread. Take your stupid beef to PMs or something.
There are levels to this imo.

@HereticBD is quite a petulant shit at times, but not a dedicated stalking/harassing troll.

Blue, you need to sack up, because I'm a little tired of doing tidy-work with people coming in here from the OT to troll. I took care of the big problem when you wouldn't, so now you can take care of the small one.

Why not just use my name? Sketch here. This poster named fawlty thinks I’m stalking him. He is on his 4th account. Sometimes I’m sarcastic.
