>>2514900>Agree, they went to the medieval supermarket to buy meat.Equally retarded take. There were medieval marketplaces, and peasants would indeed buy and sell their wares there. Most peasants ate scrap cuts and offal, and only a little, to supplement their diet, which was mostly grains and roots. They couldn't afford prime cuts.
Most peasants couldn't afford proper riding animals, couldn't afford nor did they know how to craft a proper bow and fletch competent arrows, they wouldn't ever have had time to learn to shoot a bow or hunt, and indeed prime hunting grounds were reserved for the landed gentry.
You can literally just Google this and see that peasants were generally prohibited from hunting. I didn't need to, but you clearly do.
Of course, the take you're responding to is also retarded.
Furthermore, even though Theodore Roosevelt and other responsible hunters and taxidermists have done 100x more to preserve nature than all of the self-righteous hippies and vegans in human history combined, there is still a certain class of creepy weirdo "muh big game hunters" who always exhibit obvious physical and/or mental deficiencies, such as being morbidly obese, getting off on death, using hunting as a stand-in for their otherwise total lack of masculinity, etc. Hippies and the general public are right to despise this type of loser (even a stopped clock is right twice per day, you know), even if it's largely for the wrong reasons.
