You think humans invented war? You think language is our unique masterpiece? PREPARE TO HAVE YOUR ENTIRE WORLDVIEW SHATTERED. A mind-blowing Avonetics discussion just blew the lid off humanity's biggest ego trip. Forget what your history teacher told you. The concept of organized, brutal warfare isn't ours. We're talking about ants—yes, ANTS—engaging in sophisticated tactical combat, fielding massive armies, and waging brutal territorial wars that would make a general blush. We have proof of chimpanzee platoons patrolling their borders, looking for a fight. They have politics, they have conflict, they have war. We just copied them and built bigger weapons. And language? The very foundation of our civilization? The debate gets even crazier. One commenter dropped a bombshell: did we learn to communicate from PARROTS? Or, even more humbling, did we just formalize the babbling of our own infants? The thread explodes with examples that challenge our place at the top, suggesting that many of our "greatest inventions" are just echoes of behaviors perfected in the animal kingdom millions of years ago. After seeing this, you will never look at a chimpanzee, an ant hill, or even a baby the same way again. We aren't the inventors. We're the imitators.
