All jokes aside decreasing your time spent engaged conceptually soothes the soul desu.
>>9898883
This is accurate desu
daily reminder that zerzan thinks the unabomber is cool but the feeling isn't mutual because kaczysnki actually knows something about primitive cultures and lifestyles
>>9898900
"kaczynski" is what I meant
>>9898711
Is Zerzan retarded or the smartest man alive? The answer is one or the other
>>9898900
So what are Ted's grievances with him?
Zerzan is what you get if you do not inform yourself with the sciences
>>9898918
You're better off reading actual ethnographic and anthropological studies on hunter gatherers before you approach his work because he has a tendency (at least in his older stuff that I've read) to paint primitive life as idyllic and near-utopian.

Zerzan is pretty much a primitivist hippy who believes that back in the day everything was fine and dandy. People didn't have to work, everybody was healthy, there was no sexual discrimination, no racism, and so on. People just picked berries for 2 hours a day and then spent the rest of the day playing in the fields.
Ted does not agree with this assessment (rightfully so, probably).

I personally think that Ted doesn't come up with the most accurate view on pre-civilization life either. There is a lot of new research by anthropologists, and I think their view comes closer to reality. And from what've read, that reality is rather messy.
And I don't think we can judge pre-civ life as a whole. Clearly the quality of life differed between cultures.

That sounds pretty correct though.
