Remember my review of Napoleon Chagnon’s Noble Savages from a few months ago? Of course you do, and here’s an article that goes into the subject more, specifically pertaining to how Dr. Chagnon’s experiences relate to what Roosh went through on his little Canadian adventure.

The main takeaway I took from contemplating this book is that Social Justice Warriors have existed for a very long time.

It seems relatively sedate, but I don’t think it is much of an exaggeration to say that at least half of what we hate about modern society comes from cultural anthropology.

“For many anthropologists who cling to Rousseau’s view of mankind rather than Hobbes’, I am a heretic, a misanthrope, and the object of condemnation by politically correct colleagues, especially those who identify themselves as ‘activists’ for native peoples, because I described the Yanomamo as I found them. (page 9)”

The tactics of these opponents were also identical to their modern descendants:
