when you have an arbiter

hearing your case

well in any case, farmers had to live under tyranny

laws weren't even referenced often when they WERE NOT written

and making a verdict on that

remember most people couldn't read

which they accepted, because their lives were violent

only a VERY small few could read untiil rathe rrecently

They accepted because they where weak

eh

At least peasents where

@Samaritan There might not be one. Besides the next class being more sane but more boring.

depends on the culture and language

it was all defending, and relying on one big harvest to decide whether or not they starved -meanwhile, herders and farmers could just move to new land

so written laws didn't have that much of an influence as today

sumerians and egyptians fucked themselves

If you can just change then do it

@Samaritan yeah, it's not good for the brain or emotional health to only eat bread

because their writing systems were so bad

I think it was a choice between american lit and cv lit and they said students tended to find cvlit more interesting

we all fuck ourselves now

it was almost impossible for a pleb to learn it

so they had dedicated scribe castes

that was the POINT

it's a feature not a bug

yes yes

Its true that hunters are way stronger then peasents mentally too because of the of meat

a feature for your nobility to not be able to read

peasants keep animals tho

domesticated ones

it's called livestock

writing systems weren't bad, just rudimentary

I remember they said hunter gatherers tended to be autistic.

it pictograms to represent things

yes

thats called being bad

its almost impossible to learn

and very hard to adapt

There was meat for the tradesmen and better off people I don't think the actual peasants go it though

it wasnt until the phoenicians that a not shit alphabet was mad

i think autism actually helps hunter gatherers lol
