Capitalists and Imperialism

[enderisdragon]

Why o why do you all hate capitalists so much its is our nature as is Imperialism. Since the days of caveman imperilism is evident why does one wish to deny ones nature. My answer to my ? is you all just want to feel better of yourselves because we are all so terrible and selfish. Pls respond to this I look foward to your responses.

See the real problem is, people like you fall into this thought because you believe it is 'human nature'.

You do happen to realize why cave men migrated don't you? It is a simple thing, food. Cave men migrated in search of food, and better shelter. This is human nature, not the conquering of other lands for the benefit of one person or nation.

So really for you to say that this is human nature is completely asinine. Humans today do not need to 'migrate' for the same reasons as early humans. You fall under this 'human nature' view only because you give up on society, and feel that what is current must be correct. This is where you are wrong. There is no human nature to be greedy. The only human instinct that can be proven, is the instinct of survival. We do not need to be greedy and conquer other lands for survival.

Do not fall under the stereotype of playing this off as our 'instinct'. You cannot prove this, let alone use this as fact.

If you feel that you have an answer to your question, and you feel that you can prove it to yourself. Why exactly did you take the time to ask it then? Hopefully you are asking in order to find an answer to better understand reality, and not be close minded and argue what you feel is 'fact'.

I hope you are not asking me.

Well this seems to be the new thing.

Grammar no longer needs to be taught in schools, only how to color in the lines.

Maybe it is just an internet thing, and people become lazy. However it seems there is a growing number of illiterate students graduating for highschools across America. This may not be their problem, however sure seems the teachers need to regain some of their focus.

It's more like generation "spelling-checker". Why bother if Word will correct all your misstakes (which it obviously doesn't).

By the way, dragon, your a disgrace to freedom loving people. Imperialism is nothing more than bad economic policies.

The way I see it is self preservation is a key human nature, in ancient times it was key to life. You didn’t try and accumulate wealth or food you didn’t last. But our day with technology advancements, accumulation of wealth is not really needed. so it’s a throw back to older times being a hyper extension of self preservation. Thus I feel the backwards idea of greed is really holding us back.

Where is your proof that early homo-sapians killed other homo-sapians over land and possessions? You have no proof. You just made all of this up in your head.

Reasons that I know this is absolute garbage is that early homo-sapians migrated in search of food. They did not migrate in search of other human groups, for they were not cannibals. This 'human nature' thing that you talk about is false. It was their human nature to survive, thus leading them to migrate and kill animals in order to have food and shelter.

In modern day, we do not need to kill and conquer in order for survival. We haven't needed to for thousands of years. So for you to say that it is human nature to kill and conquer is asinine. It is only human nature to survive.

One of the traits that have led homo-sapians/sapians to survive as long as we have, is that we are able to adapt. This leads us to adopt new traits, thus leaving old ones. This means that greed and murder are not instinct, but merely leisure brought on by men in power. There is no human nature involved in this process.

If you have the link, or any form of resource to back up your claim, please feel free to post it. I am very anxious knowing that you don't have a resource.

Edit:


Can you pls tell me how to quote pieces of a post if it can be done

You can either click the 'Quote' button above a current post. Or while you are typing your 'reply' look at the options above the typing space. There is one marked 'Quote', in which you can either highlight what you would like to quote, then click the button (use on PC's). Or you can click in front of what you would like to quote, then click at the end (use on Mac's). Copy and Paste is usually a must for 'quoting'.

sociology, anthropology


Reasons that I know this is absolute garbage is that early homo-sapians migrated in search of food. They did not migrate in search of other human groups, for they were not cannibals


never made the claim that they were cannibals only social animals


It was their human nature to survive, thus leading them to migrate and kill animals in order to have food and shelter


even if they had to eliminate other humans? Yes

The trait that has allowed homo sapians to exists an thrive is the ability to kill without remorse
