    A man’s worth was measured by how good he was at killing the other tribe’s men. So there’s that.

      Native Americans weren’t/aren’t some monolithic people. Back then they no doubt had a lot of different ideas on measuring a man’s worth.

        Really? You go to work and your boss says “hey, I’ve noticed you haven’t killed enough members of our corporate rival this year”?

              The irony being that this jokes existence proves my point.

              Ed: don’t spam me with dumb shit and then ban me so I can’t respond when you look a fool.

              Argue in good faith or I dunno get fucked?

          I didn’t say business, I said civilization and yes you just described war which is what the comment was about anyway.

              A civilized society is a civilization bud, that said if you think business = society I’d say you have bigger issues to tackle.

              A civilization (also spelled civilisation in British English) is any complex society characterized by the development of the state, social stratification, urbanization, and symbolic systems of communication beyond signed or spoken languages (namely, writing systems and graphic arts).

              Lol yes, you can’t be bothered to pick up a dictionary but it’s me who won’t ever learn anything. Totally.

              Good luck with that shit bud.

                Blocked. Feel free to never learn anything because you think you’re above everyone. This is what happens when a leftist adopts a conservative mindset. Be warned, lurkers!
