Why do hunter-gatherer societies still exist?
What's stopping them from settling down and making advancements in technology like the rest of humanity? Bit hard to believe they've made no progress for hundreds of thousands of years.

>hard to believe they've made no progress for hundreds of thousands of years.
they do though, just cause they didnt independently invent cars doesnt mean they didnt have any advancements.
>the jump from stone to flint arrows in the same time others went from stone arrows to walking on the moon is equal... because it is ok?!
Most pre-agricultural revolution inventions took tens of thousands of years to be invented. Are you really arguing that some hunter-gatherer in an isolated valley with zero contact from the outside world didn't land on the moon?
negroid understanding of history
ironically enough
>progress
Completely alien concept to them, this idea that you're going or have to advance in any way shape or form. To them, things were always this way and will continue to be like this long, long after they're gone.
>Why do hunter-gatherer societies still exist?
It works.
>What's stopping them from settling down and making advancements in technology like the rest of humanity
Who knows anon.
Why this modern society is rife with depression and existential connodrums
IQ.
meme
What are your achievements?
Having the accumulated knowledge of thousands of years of not being hunter-gatherers.
And what has that given you?
>Having the accumulated knowledge of thousands of years of not being hunter-gatherers.
you're not special dumbass
There's nothing to suggest that the Hadza are inherently less intelligent than other Africans who live relatively nearby.
I agree, return to monke is the high IQ take
>Why do hunter-gatherer societies still exist?
They still exist because they've avoided getting genocided or absorbed by pastoralist and agriculturalist people via trade or living in isolated areas. That man you posted is Hadza, a population of Africans closer to proto-Eurasians than other Africans, and unfortunately their way of life is in danger due to the Maasai and their cattle. That being said, the Maasai are currently being pushed out of their homelands due to big game hunting preserves, so I suppose it's one big circle.
The Hadza only number about 1,000 strong, and 40% of that number actually lives a hunter-gatherer lifestyle. They went from big game hunters with a mythos that suspiciously sounds like the story of human evolution (to a degree) to now hunting baboons and foraging for smaller game, combined with their traditional honey consumption that can sometimes be half of their caloric intake.
Shit, forgot to post the image.
Healthy yet varied diets + daily grooming. That being said, the second you start to get old, the sun does bear down on you. Pic related.
And even then, minus the wrinkles that are slowly taking over his face, his skin is extremely smooth.
>Healthy yet varied diets + daily grooming
wouldnt they eat the same shit every day? we groom daily too so I dont get that part.
No Hunter-gatherers have very diverse diets.
>a population of Africans closer to proto-Eurasians than other Africans
how is this possible? They have haplogroup B

>The Hadza, according to genomic comparisons, are today more closely related to non-Africans than to other Africans. The researchers hypothesize that the Hadza are direct descendants of the group that migrated out of Africa, and possibly spread within Africa as well, after about 50,000 years ago.
why does their skin look so nice?
Because they involve work that is rewarding and beneficial to human bodies, unliike being trapped in amazon warehouse.

Black skin
Hunter-gatherers are the minority in Africa, there's barely a million of them left compared to the hundreds of millions of pastoralists, agriculturalists, unskilled laborers, business professionals, factory workers, etc.
>wouldnt they eat the same shit every day?
Not always. What they eat depends on the availability of the food and the time of year. If there's honey nearby, they'll gorge themselves on honey because they know that honey is rare. If there's baobab fruits, they'll collect them and eat those. Tubers? They'll bake/roast them once they get back. And if they get lucky and kill an antelope, they'll ration that down until everything they can harvest is consumed.
Yeah I feel like this is how I saw hunter gatherers in my head. They had a "varied" diet but they ate the same thing a lot at one time. Like you said, one week you eat hella fruits, the next you only have meat/honey.
>What's stopping them from settling down and making advancements in technology like the rest of humanity?
Why would they do that when a significant portion of LULZ yearns for the days of old?
> Why do hunter-gatherer societies still exist?
It's a good and fulfilling place to live. People have literally evolved to live like this.
There was no need to. If you have the knowhow and the physical fitness, most of places where hunter gatherers still live are overly abundent with food. It's only in more recent decades that their way of life has become threatened because of encroaching civilization changing their environment. They're absolutely insanely fit and in tune with their environment. Every single fucking one. They casually do what athletes train their whole lives to do. It's quite amazing what a natural lifestyle does for the human body.
Dumb savage worshipper. They spend most their lives lazing around. You said yourself there is a ridiculous overabundance of food, so obviously it's not difficult to get some. They don't spend their days training in the gymnasium, they've never stacked a brick, never hoisted a log, never lived at sea. Your average white tradesmen today would mog 99% of tribals in feats of strength. Not to mention working men of the past
> they've never stacked a brick, never hoisted a log, never lived at sea
and you did all of that?!
3 out of 4.
They're lazy, unindustrious naggers
Yes naggers are very good at running away
> They're lazy, unindustrious naggers
That's what makes them bases. Civilization is harder work for a more miserable life.
Farming is backbreaking work especially premodern farming.
And hunter-gatherers don't have to farm.
You will never have a real ethnostate
>They're lazy, unindustrious naggers
They're also your closest relatives in Africa that aren't literally West Eurasian. Have some respect to your kin, boy.
>They spend most their lives lazing around.
And that's bad because...
that is bad because it is against his israeli faith
>sitting around all day! Oy Vey!
>Sorry you have to sleep naked in the dirt like an animal son, but me and all your great great x8000 grandpappys just couldn't be bothered to do any more than the bare minimum for our entire lives
> instead of doing bare minimum and be happy your should work 10 times as hard so your boss could afford new lamborghini
>*is enslaved en masse with hysterical easd*
Are you referring to modern wageslaves?
>Your average white tradesmen today would mog 99% of tribals in feats of strength
no shit sherlock you can buy protein from fucking Walmart now you dumb fuck. Strength and muscles has more to do, with nutrition and rest than anything else.
Lmao do you think these guys are in a caloric surplus?
Their cardio is otherworldly, if anything I'd compare them more to mma fighters with stamina than fucking strongmen.
Kek what causes this level of inane seething?
>OP asks qusstion
>Anon gives answer
>"BUT WHAT ABOUT MUH WYPIPO"
>"DID I MENTION I HATE naggerS?!?"
lol I guarantee you these hunter-gatherers have never been depressed in their lives for even a single second
Considering our aggressively conservationist desires these days I would think that someone (from outside the tribe) might want to try and preserve their lifestyle if they did try and change.
> COME JOIN US IN THE NATURAL PROGRESS OF CIVILIZATION
They didn't have to compete with more advanced civilizations. They exist due to the benevolence of superior civilizations.
They don't want to. Conservatives exist in nearly any political climate, they're just ultraconservatives. In some rare cases like Sentinel, they can't really advance due to isolation and lack of resources, but in places like Tanzania they genuinely just don't want to leave their current way of life.
Keep being a retard
>at least I have my funko pops and opiods
It sounds like they need feminism.
The only reason you can talk about the "advancements" of other peoples is because of the possibility of you invading them and destroying their livelihood. Think about where we are going, now ask yourself what progress looks like
they are trad
Most modern hunter gatherers live on totally marginal land not suited for farming like deep in the amazon or kongo jungles or in the deserts in africa or the far arctic. All the good land was taken by farmers ages ago.
Because the Neolithic Revolution and it's consequences have been a disaster for the human race.
they were not fortunate enough to come into contact with Western Civ.
Lack of enviromental obstacles (sans the wildlife) leading to a abundance of resources, which thusly gave no reason to inovate (think). Life certainly wasn't easy for HG but it was sustainably in the long run
Mods have joined homosexualry.
His believes that being a American couch potato requires more iq than being a hunter gatherer.
1. They're all paid actors.
2. Our understanding of a unilateral humanity is fundamentally wrong - we in the west are punished for our assumption, the hunter gather doesn't think about it at all.
