are we cursed?
Aide33:
i reject the assumption that humans are selfish by nature, i feel like the only way we survived in nature is through collectively helping each other out
cavemen grouped into tribes and would outsmart and outrun prey, its literally the only way we weren't torn to shreds by every animal

people are idiots
what's best for short-term vs what's best for long-term
Nicepoint:
Selfishness in certain situations gave our ancestors an evolutionary advantage. Not much beyond that though. Humanity isn't really evolving much biologically anymore, now it's our culture that is evolving. We decide what is good and bad, right and wrong, etc. Selfishness isn't really a curse since no one actually cursed us with it, our society has grown to the point that selfishness is counterproductive to the whole, which is why it is considered a bad thing.

Strong men make good times, good times make soft men, soft men make hard times, and hard times make strong men. Rinse and repeat. History is a flat circle.
