Looking for an image subreddit with minimal rules? Check out /r/images

A place to share interesting photographs and pictures. Feel free to post your own, but please read the rules first (see below), and note that we are not a catch-all for general images (of screenshots, comics, etc.)

Spoiler code

Please mark spoilers like this:
[text here](/spoiler)

Hover over to read.

Rules

  1. No screenshots, or pictures with added or superimposed text. This includes image macros, comics, info-graphics and most diagrams. Text (e.g. a URL) serving to credit the original author is exempt.

  2. No gore or porn. NSFW content must be tagged.

  3. No personal information. This includes anything hosted on Facebook's servers, as they can be traced to the original account holder. Stalking & harassment will not be tolerated.

  4. No solicitation of votes (including "cake day" posts), posts with their sole purpose being to communicate with another redditor, or [FIXED] posts. DAE posts go in /r/DoesAnybodyElse. "Fixed" posts should be added as a comment to the original image.

  5. Submissions must link directly to a specific image file or to an image hosting website with minimal ads. We do not allow blog hosting of images ("blogspam"), but links to albums on image hosting websites are okay. URL shorteners are prohibited.

  • If your submission appears to be filtered but definitely meets the above rules, please send us a message with a link to the comments section of your post (not a direct link to the image). Don't delete it as that just makes the filter hate you!

  • If you come across any rule violations, please report the submission or message the mods and one of us will remove it!

Please also try to come up with original post titles. Submissions that use certain clichés/memes will be automatically tagged with a warning.

Two Bagles speaks with forked tongue. Indian man spent all day hunting or fishing, went home and got nagged by wife, and spent the night on the spare buffalo skin.

Then the chief died of consumption, his children were eaten by wolves, his wife got dysentery and shat herself to death, and the rest of the tribe died of hunger due to a longer than expected winter.

I'm not talking about race.

I'm complaining about the common thought that "Oh it was so much simpler and therefore better then". All this done over Facebook on phenomenal computers, using the internet, safely protected from many diseases.

It worries me how we idealize Amerind life. They are either depicted as cartoonish druids at "one" with nature or else they are depicted, in earlier works mostly, as savages who must be civilized.

Both styles of depiction are flawed, because they deny the humanity of the Amerind people. Like all other groups of humans, their experiences varied considerably. Both styles of depiction also have disturbing implication for current policy. The older style, where Amerinds are shown as savages, glosses over the brutality of the European mistreatment and extermination of the natives. By forgetting these horrors, we may repeat them.

The newer characterization of Amerinds is more subtly noxious. Native society is shown as a perfect, almost flawless, "garden of eden". This leads to a primitivist sentiment that yearns for a utopia that never really existed. The real truth is that Amerind society was as deeply flawed as an other human society. Hunter-gatherer cultures have been shown to have murder rates well in excess of the most violent modern nations. And so-called "gift-giving" societies were often based on an understanding that acceptance of a gift included acceptance of some (ill-defined) debt.

Also, this thread is a repost.

I would recommend the book "Sex at Dawn" to you - despite the provocative title a large portion of the book discusses what life really was like in primitive pre-agricultural tribes. The evidence they give is found in our modern day physiology, fossil records and in reports from researchers visiting modern day pre-ag societies. (note: I have no affiliation w/authors or sales)
