The world did indeed used to be a brutal place. I guess I'm trying to understand what conclusion you're trying to draw.
The OP picture says "humans were never meant to be" something. That language suggests that either we're biologically designed to be something else (which I don't think that person was saying) or that human society was designed to support something better that is less anxious or depressed. I'm pointing out (not too seriously) that that isn't the case either and that prior human societies were actually "designed" to be far far worse.
Realistically no one designed anything, so I'm having a lighthearted poke at the premise of OP's picture.
