No, we evolved to be hyper social apes which rely on cooperation in order to survive. God you people are so confidently ignorant, lol.
Comment on Well would you look at that...
_stranger_@lemmy.world 2 days agoIt all comes down to the fact that the human psyche evolved from selfish monkeys, the kind that killed all the other types of monkeys that were slightly different from them. It’s almost like humanity has been trying to solve this problem since the dawn of time.

Except this absolutely isn’t even close to true. We interbred with other species prolifically to the point every person on Earth has Neanderthal DNA and Denisovian DNA, among other genetic material we don’t know the specific origins.
That kind of misanthropic view that homo spaiens just “killed all the other types of monkeys” is toxic.

counterpoint, none of them exist anymore, it’s all humans.

Yes, because of other evolutionary pressures. That doesn’t mean humans wiped them out.
