Don't forget where we came from and what shaped us as a species. The Jungle.

Except its scientifically proven, that our possibility tonevolve was Not from Hunting, but agricultural Farming. But great Shitpost
Modern humans are around 300.000 years old .... we've only been farming for 10.000 years. Doesn't quite add up.
No it wasn't.
Otherwise humans wouldn't have been smart enough to figure out farming in the first place.
Also humans were already humans when farming was invented. We're not pokemon.
the first crop was rare candy and evolution stones
Don't fucking tell me what I can and can not be!
With the power of friendship I will finally become a Glurak (also screw English Pokémon names)
That's not how evolution works. Evolution doesn't have a plan, it doesn't wait, or speed up. Evolution just happens and our human ancestors would have continued to evolve regardless of agriculture. The path that evolution takes could have been very different but it would have happened. The human species is still evolving and will continue to do so until it's extinction.
Nope, there is the Evolution aspect of physique, that you are referring to, but there is also the socio economic aspect. As linked in the other Response: https://socialsci.libretexts.org/Courses/College_of_the_Canyons/Anthro_101%3A_Physical_Anthropology/12%3A_Homo_sapiens_our_History_and_our_Future/12.4%3A_Agriculture_and_its_Effect_on_Humans
Agriculture allowed us to stay in one place, changing the shape of the Landscape, fitting it to our needs, Form larger Packs of Peoples because of sustainable food income, therefore forming societies and developing introcate communicatio Mechanisms, growing large (ready efficienter) brains for that purpose because we could expedite more energy to it. Without agriculture, we would still roam the World in Hunter & Gatherer Fashion, Not having so much of a society and would still be dump as bricks because our whole thought Processes and physique would be targeted towards Hunting and gathering.
Yes, Evolution does Not have a plan, but it does Not Happen spontaneously, AS the environment selects against unfavorable traits (and genes thereof) and towards favorable ones by breeding. If you have a better Chance If survival, you have a longer life and more chances of passing your expressed traits (by the means of genes) by means of breeding tothe next Generation.
It was fire ya dingus.
Fire allowed us to cook our food, making us die less from pathogens and bacteria AND making more food digestible. ESPECIALLY meat.
Agriculture was what provided our exponential expansion.
You can’t just say “it’s scientifically proven” and make it so.
Except that all Species of Human Like apes Had that - homo sapiens, homo neanderthalensis, homo erectus etc. What US AS Homo Sapiens Sets US apart is agriculture: https://socialsci.libretexts.org/Courses/College_of_the_Canyons/Anthro_101%3A_Physical_Anthropology/12%3A_Homo_sapiens_our_History_and_our_Future/12.4%3A_Agriculture_and_its_Effect_on_Humans
It allowed is to stay in one place, developing it instead of living nomadic Livestyles in Hunter & Gatherer Fashion.
Before insulting someone on a discussion Platform, you should consider the possibility of checking their Claims yourself First.
I’m not going to get into a cherry pick our sources argument with you, agriculture is very important to humanity culturally.
Becoming an agrarian society is not what made us humans though.
An entry level anthropology course is a weird source to point at though as because I’m making biological and evolutionary argument and you’re referring to culture.
Regardless anthropological sources hold up the advent of fire and our ability to break free from simple nutrient sources and day time caloric gain AND venturing into colder regions. It allowed the dispersal of humans. Well before agriculture.
PS: fire more strongly supports the notion that humans were originally largely vegetarian, if you care to have a more salient point.
Depends on WHO you refer to as humanity. For me, humanity started at the Point, where we could create larger societies than Just Tribes of people, which all other Hominids have also in Common. If you refer to all Hominid Species Lifeforms (past and present), your Point may stand. But AS i Said before, neanderthal peoples also knew how to make fire, Same woth many other Hominid Species, that went extinct, as they were driven into a evolutionary Corner Not adapting to the Changes in environments and neighborhood Relations with the modern Human (Homo Sapiens). And yes, i know this Species is 300k years existent, much longer than agricultural Farming.
Alas i am Not a Scientist, but the notion of the Shitpost, that we must eat meat is ridiculus, as our Species was always an omnivore, allowing us to adapt better to the environmental Changes in the begining. This is Not, what differentiates us from other homidae.If you Just say, fire is what differentiates US, you cold also say, the ?dexterus? thumbs is the deciding factor. Other Species Had that too, its Not our Unique elling Point 😉
