I would bet that most of the time if they are spending the large amount not of money it costs to campaign for an Oscar nomination they would want to win.

I'm not saying it's right to be nominated in the lower prestige category than the role you played, I'm just saying it's not uncommon.

If he's talking in the sense of food, that can be justified upto a point, like people may not get anything they desire on there finger tips, but considering the post, for being populated for so long, it gives us little idea about the environment around, and considering Indian culture, still more than 50% population is vegitarian, no meat or even right now those who do, are in no comparison with other people. So, there diet may have consisted most farm products. And when you go back to Indus valley Civilization, it's said to be the one of the most advance civilization of that time, and it's locations is around some of most fertile lands in the world. I can't speak for China about there culture and discoveries, but Just to say that, they have little yield compared to now, still they had less population to feed and more fertile land and literally way better earth for it.

Indus valley civilization worked on a community level not on the individual level. Everything they had was distributed equally. For example there was no division of houses between rich, poor, king, soldiers. All the houses in IVC were equipped with same facilities. Your initial point of argument was that rice and wheat developed very recently but when I provided you sources then you changed your argument and started spewing random bullshit like it was luxury. Man atleast stick to your point.
