    you on the other hand claimed this is a natural and present desire, regardless of system. This is false.

    It is not false, it’s evolutionary psychology. Have a look at this video:

      It is false. You believe there is an intrinsic desire to sabatage, innate to humans, which is false. This behavior is only present in stressed conditions, what comes first is desire for cooperation.

        I have not used the word “desire”.

        which is false

        It is not false. Again, it is evolutionary psychology.

        This behavior is only present in stressed conditions

        The need to increase one’s chances of survival and of passing on one’s genes is always present and is not limited to stressed conditions.

          It is false. Evolutionary psychology pushes against sabotage, because it risks the group.

            It is false.

            It is not false.

            Evolutionary psychology pushes against sabotage

            I haven’t used the word “sabotage” and I’m not sure what you’re referring to when you use it. I don’t understand why you’ve introduced the word.

            because it risks the group.

            Exploitation per se doesn’t necessarily threaten a group’s survival. Exploitation is harm to one and benefit to another. Evolution only cares about which benefits the species more.

              It is false. I used the word sabotage because it’s accurate, humans go for cooperation before all else.

                We’re not communicating. You’re deluded. Best of luck.
