Agricultural Revolution: 9500 BC - Park begins in 8500 BC and ends in 3500 B.C. Major domestication ends
The biggest scam in history
The state of the individual in the agricultural revolution
The agricultural revolution did not bring about a new era of easy living. Instead, it made farmers live a harder and less satisfying life than foragers. In fact, people did not domesticate wheat, but wheat domesticated humans.
The pursuit of luxury life itself is a trap. People can only fall deeper and deeper into it. The same is true for modern humans.
The racial destiny of cattle, sheep, pigs and other animals seems to have greatly improved with the agricultural revolution, but the fate of individuals is extremely tragic.
Reasons for the development of the agricultural revolution
As villages form, gatherers become farmers, child birth rates increase, death rates increase, and the overall population grows.
It is also possible that there was a belief center first, and then villages were built around it, and then gradually entered a farming society.

History is never fair
The concept of class is deeply rooted in human society. It is all because of human laws and norms that some people become slaves and some people become masters.
Even if the unfair treaty of race has been abolished in law, the polarization is actually becoming more and more serious due to the continued existence of discrimination, polarization of wealth, educational resources and other issues.
Sexism
Gender discrimination is pervasive in history and contemporary society
Different from sexual characteristics, so-called gender characteristics are actually images created by society.
Human patriarchy is not supported by any biological reasons and is also fictitious

Imaginary communities gradually replace the influence of actual communities
Nation: the imaginary community of the country. In fact, the current nation is not inherited from ancient times. Rather, it is artificial imagination and division
Consumer public: fan base, etc.
About happiness
three arguments
Because today’s abilities are stronger than before, human beings are becoming happier and happier
Because humans are increasingly deviating from the lifestyle set by their genes, humans are becoming increasingly unhappy.
Only after the scientific revolution did humans become happy
