Are you the retarded Cro-Magnon of your tribe? Ask the other Cro-Magnons to hook a brother up with some seafood.SJConspirator » 28 Jul 2022, 7:46 pm » wrote: ↑ There is an ocean full of fish
If I am a cro magnon living in 3000 BC, with no hooks, no net, no spear, no feasible way to capture and consume the fish, I will have a scarcity of seafood
If I am a corporate fishing vessel in the year 1995 with every modern tool including sonar to find schools of fish, I will have abundance..
Can we agree that technology is necessary for abundance, moreso than raw materials?

“Cro-Magnons, who lived approximately 25,000 years ago, introduced tools such as the bow and arrow, fishhooks, fish spears and harpoons that were constructed from bones and antlers of animals.”

Yeah, I googled immediately. 1890 was actually my first guess, before I ruminated on it.SJConspirator » 29 Jul 2022, 12:17 am » wrote: ↑ close. You was only about 50 years off

Y'know what came up for me, when I learnt the true date?
Everything we were given to believe about the conditions in red china HAD to be a lie - HAD to.
No way around it.
Is there?
No, that I buy. But the primitive commie economy. Not saying they had starbucks. But they had to have had some damned efficient rail and some reasonably modern agricultural practices, to hit a billion people on the heels of purging a population the size of 1960s France. They had not reverted to the backwards, prehistoric **** I had been given to understand.

I imagine Cro-Magnons had what they needed with their technology. An abundance if you will. As technology advanced we became too damn efficient. There is no longer an abundance, as we deplete the natural resource. We lack abundance because of technology.SJConspirator » 28 Jul 2022, 11:25 pm » wrote: ↑ cro magnon certainly landed more fish than modern fisheries could even handle

I would have guessed "in the 1800's" and that's as close a margin as I would have gone.SJConspirator » 28 Jul 2022, 11:41 pm » wrote: ↑ Do you know what year the population of earth reached 1 billion People?
