This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.
Several million not 200k
And the reason is that the species invented agriculture due to natural climate change (not to be confused with the current man-made climate change if anyone was worried) which allowed for a significantly larger portion of the population to not have to work on making food. Also the industrial revolution was its own similar thing.
If you count homo habilis and homo erectus, then yes. Homo sapiens are closer to 300K then 200k.
Something interesting occurred genetically around 60-65K years ago with sapiens that kicked cultural development into high gear, so really should start counting from there.
It makes more sense when you know there were only a few thousand humans and they were basically Sun readers.
190k years of a classless society and modern leaders try to tell us capitalism works better than communism although its crumbling after 200 years

Hello there 👋🏽
We would see evidence of that. Which we don't.
We do see evidence of gigantic monsters that roamed the Earth millions upon millions of years ago.
If they invented some technology, it was either made from paper, or we would see fossils of it. But we don't see fossils of it, nor is paper very capable as a technology.
The notion of "human progress" is a narrative we tell ourselves that doesn't really apply to reality.
Well yea anon, earth has existed for only 6,000 years, when God created the earth. Duh!
