Why are humans so much more developed than pretty all other organisms on Earth? We're vastly more intelligent, capable of dealing with pain without going into shock, have opposable thumb's, have absolutely insane endurance to a degree where there's a guy who can run across entire states without stopping, are capable of throwing objects with precision, we're capable of actually recovering from broken limbs without being cripples due to group dynamics, and we have insanely long lifespans that can reach up to 122 years which puts us in the top 10 longest lived non-plant life on Earth.

When you think about it's absolutely insane just how superior humans are compared to all other forms of life.

we're quite physically weak compared to most animals, we're like the only species where childbirth is so fatal, our babies are born far too undeveloped, our sense of smell is garbage, our sense of hearing is pretty bad, our upper respiratory system gets infected far more than other species, we often kill one another needlessly, we often kill ourselves needlessly, we have the tendency to destroy our environment, genetic disorders are rampant in our species by comparison, our immune systems rely on medicines now so we're fucked without them and meanwhile breeding supergerms, elderly humans get lots of problems like back pain and degenerative problems with the brain and vision and etc.

agreed, but claiming that we're "much more developed" is naiive -- we are just as developed as any other modern species. it's just we have our own adaptations, housecats have theirs, jellyfish have theirs, so do oaktrees and mushrooms, so does staphylococcus and the HIV virus. you can't compare them on the level of "more developed"

if evoluations is the name of the game. and the ability to evolve into anything you want. i would think choosing the body composition of a Human is better than anything you can imagine. just add wings for the next evolution.

[Anonymous No.10093588]

humans are physically weak. Intelligence, in the other hand, is overrated. it's a double edged weapon, It's just a very dangerous survival tool. We, instead of adapt us to nature, we adapt nature to us, without the propper care for the future. Intelligence lead us to fuck the planet. In the end, cockroaches will endure. Don't tell me we are more evolved if we can (and will) fuck ourselves and the rest of the planet

Having control over your environment is probably one of the best things we have at our disposal. If anything we will be the first species (that we know of) to unfuck our environment, leave the planet altogether if we choose to, and eventually leave physicality behind altogether.

The first species that is able to manipulate objects and reaches some threshold for brain development will take control of the entire planet (on land or sea). All planets that have intelligent alien life (prior to strong AI) will probably have one dominant species.

Those countries are still modern, even shit tier african countries have a standard of living equal to European ones around the 1800s.
A starving poo in Calcutta will live as long as Henry the eighth is a common trope I've heard and mathed out.
Injuries are not to be discounted, work blue collar trades for awhile, everyone there has some sort of injury minor or large. An injury fixed thanks to modern medicine with no deaths due to the injury itself or infection. Would not be the case even 100 years ago in Europe let alone anywhere else.
Sixties was ancient back in the day, you might have a few that made it that far but it wouldn't be the norm at all.

Not really, lots of people used to die young due to shit like high infant mortality and wars, for those that could survive those they'd quite possibly live into their 70s

Some would yes, but not most. Some people live to 110 today, but most dont. Those people were outliers, most would have been dead and broken down long before then due to wear out or a combo of that and accidents.
People really don't understand how hard everything was even 200 yrs ago and the toll it takes on your body. Couple that with bare basic medicine and one wrong step up on the mast and your done.
Humans are amazing, but most would be dead by age 45-50 max.

>capable of dealing with pain without going into shock

We literally react to pain the same way as every other mammal.

And organisms are not more or less developed than one another. They're all the products of the same duration of evolution.

not even bacteria are immune to diseases, see Bacteriophages. There is no superiority except maybe in viruses but those don't even classify as being alive under current terminology so basically it's just the world winning over life.

Therefore diseases are not an argument

Just now I wonder what the aggregate percentage of people with seriously debilitating congenital disorders is. Rheumatoid arthritis, schizophrenia, and juvenile diabetes alone account for about 3% of the population, and my family is cursed with all 3 of them. Of course you can't make the comparison with other domesticated species (humans are now self-domesticated) the genes of which are also loaded with such garbage. Before looking it up, I'd guess that wild varieties have 1/10th the incidence of such, even for long-lived primates if the comparison is at birth.
