Why do I need to put guard rails on things? People can just choose to not fall off. All people are perfectly rational/knowledgeable and other physical pressures do not exist, so people must want to fall off of cliffs!
There actually is no way to change this. We can’t do anything about it because we’re just too stupid. People create systems of violence, and there’s just nothing that can be done to help that because there is no way to change that. No sir, no way at all. It’s pointless to even try.
We are all sinners filled with sin so anything that we do is bad. There is no hope. Your grandmother is a virus actually.
Wolves observed within the conditions of captivity organize under so-called “alphas” who maintain leadership through frequent bouts of violence. This is not their inevitable state, as wolves in other conditions commonly organize into family structures and exhibit little infighting. Were one to observe wolves only in captivity, one might conclude that their system of violence is unchangeable.
Humans have the capacity to shape their own environment. Our imagination of the future is often (but not always) constrained by our environment as it exists. History displays a non-exhauative sampling of societal configurations, each of which is influenced by past configurations and that which was beyond human capacity to change.
The inevitability of tyranny may seem likely, but cannot be known. Likewise, we cannot know that a better world is or is not possible. This does not mean that we should not try.
So, let me get this straight: animals work like this, we work like this, there is not a single example in 10000 years of human history that proves it otherwise but “cannot be known” if we are pathetic evil creatures.
Right right… well, text me when it works ok? I rather not wait for “other conditions” but point my finger at the problematic people today and work from evidence.
Yeah I hope that we get there some day (and double hope that I might still be alive to see it). It seems like we have so many terrible people today, and they’re quite prominent.
Yeah I know what you mean man. I gave a bunch of children some knives and the one with the biggest knife coerced the others into hurting a bunch of people. They still would have found a way to do that without knives! Don’t you know that rocks exist?? Them having knives is COMPLETELY IRRELEVANT to the outcome!

I really don’t get this positive attitude some people have.
No, there is no way to change this. Have you read any part of history? This is naive at best.
