        Is the origin of species out of date, cause it is older?

        Also, the bulk of Graeber’s work is from the 21st century.

        You can just say that you don’t want to believe me, you know.

            As I said: if you want contemporary anthropological sources: read basically any book by David Graeber. Mutual Aid is a bit old, but still relevant, too.

              Give me some excerpts, quotes or a chapter, using whole books is a little vague and isn’t getting your point across. Yeah Darwin’s book is still relevant but we have also learned a lot more with his theories as the foundation(comparing biology to anthropology?). Your books are working off of what the primitive societal needs of long ago were, right? Do you really think that those same concepts apply to the society of today?
