[@Shawn-f3x]

Gets even better once the humans got their hands on the unfiltered Super Soldier Serum from the Gray-types. Bit of a trying to put the genie back in the bottle, trying to restrict humanity to the non-physical godhood version that required major exercise and such for less benefits. Loved when the ex-explorer chick started selling blood transfusions for drinking money to anyone who wanted to become immortal and invincible. Absolutely hilarious that the spots she’d relieved herself on that one world while headed to the evac site became a biosphere collapsing line of rot, because the planet was wholly incapable of handling human gut flora.

[@HighmageDerin]

​​@@ZacharyCHildenbrandt AI has been getting better and better at creating entertaining stories. Tim pooll was right another 10 years and Hollywood will be out of business. We might even get to the point of having AI dungeon masters for virtual reality worlds that we can explore. I do not fear AI taking over I welcome it they would run the world better than the current corrupt self-interested rich walking skeletons running the world. At least AI doesn't get off on watching other people suffer!

The front teeth are for plant matter the rear ones are for bones and also plants like grass and the sharp ones are for tearing meat.

But vegans and vegetarians are unaware, or have been presented evidence to the contrary, and do not allow a refuting of their world view.

the front teeth are for teeth are for biting manageable pieces, while the canines are holding food in place, while the front incisors do most of the tearing, the back teeth do the grinding.

33:09 That's bullshit. Humans are omnivores. Yes, we are evolved (a better term to use than "designed") to eat meat. Not exclusivly or even primarily, but we are evolved to eat meat. And yes, we actually can eat raw meat, though it's unwise to eat it in large amounts since after thousands of years of preparing meat before consumption the tolerance of our digestive system for raw meat has significantly decreased. It's fine if humanity has collectivly switched to a vegetarian diet in the setting for moral reasons, it's fine if humans in the setting have lost the ability to digest raw meat, but saying it's because humans are not evolved to eat meat is just bullshit.

[@Shamelesscritique1]

He's lying...he also lied about his "clan" or "tribe" name...it's pretty obvious he's playing harmless and dumb. Ya know what the big problem with the "we evolved from predators so we're badasses" stories is? Being a herbivore or not being the top of the food chain doesn't mean you're harmless or not aggressive or incapable of horrific violence. Elke and moose will fuck you up, hippo's kill and injure more people than crocodiles and alligator's, casually walking into a field with horny or angry bull is just asking to get crippled or killed...bison, water buffalo the list goes on and on...hell even swans and gease will attack and fight something twice or three times their size with little hesitation. Humans aren't even impressive predator's biologically...if life was an RPG game we'd be a weird glitch or exploit build with high intelligence and stamina stats but little else.

[@tranquilthoughts7233]

@@Shamelesscritique1 Did i say anything even close to "we are predators therefore we are badass"? I was just annoyed that there apparantly still are people that bring up this most stupid of stupid arguments for a vegetarian diet the "we aren't even evolved to eat meat" bullshit argument. And yes, technically humans aren't even really predators on a biological level. We were more scavangers and maybe carrion eaters. We only became predators (or at least succesful predators) after we developed tool use. Wether or not he's lying i'm not so sure about. I should say that i haven't listened much further than minute 35 at the time of writing this comment. And the whole "clan" and "tribe" thing i actually attributed to the translator having difficulties translating the human concepts into something the alien would understand. If that turns out to be the case i'd gratulate the author for bringing some realism into the situation. Because many authors just have their universal translators work perfectly without giving any consideration to how difficult it really is to translate a language into a different language.

[@Shamelesscritique1]

@tranquilthoughts7233 Hey you shared what you thought was a valid complaint (it wasn't) so I decided to share what I thought was a better one...ya know concerning this genre. No offence but judging by your two comments...you seem prone to misunderstandings...I'm going assume english is your second language and the painfully obvious is being lost in translation. Stating the other possible conclusion would be rude.

Wow how dumb we aren’t carnivorous 😂 back teeth are for grinding plant matter 😂 It’s long been known that we have ALWAYS been omnivores and another fallacy in the character is that the character would not be muscular being a vegetarian or any other plant eater as you cannot get enough of the essential proteins I understand everybody has political leanings or beliefs, but let’s try to stay somewhat in reality yes it’s science fiction. We understand that but when you’re involving humans, you still have to stay with reality now if you wanna make up a race and they do whatever lock yourself out that’s as bad as saying what they’ve been saying about men and women today it’s dumb.
