That’s all we are. I mean the skeletons of every mammal are 90% similar, every species has the same sensory organs, and we can relate to a lot of behaviors exhibited by other animals. So a lot of answers about the complex nature of humans lie in the easily discernible features and behaviors of other animals, especially primates. We can also draw the same conclusions from early humans through anthropology, archaeology, evolutionary science, etc.

Any topic I could bring up that relates to this has probably already been discussed here or on ppd, but people are not seeing the whole picture. People are capable of horrendous things. Much worse than any animal. Amazingly, we still manage to improve technology and build societies. But there’s a reason the US government isn’t trusting us with even the KNOWLEDGE of faster than light vehicles and communications. All hell would break loose because people are acting on very basic biological urges, and these would just be tools for people to weaponize against each other and the Earth would be scattered into dust throughout the solar system in about 30 seconds.

The good news is if you are in a heightened state of awareness, you can observe other people and predict their behavior. Even with nuance and butterfly effect, the powerful human brain can still seek out patterns.

Now, imagine a simulated brain a million times more powerful than an organic one. You could discover all the hidden truths about society given enough variables. We are very close to the point where computers will be able to do this (I know, we’ve been saying this for a while, but stay with me)

What I’m getting at is APD, BPD, blackpill subreddits are on to something. Religious nuts, idiots, and white knights will continue to slow progress because of the taboo of talking about sex and relationships in a logical context. But with enough effort you can easily deconstruct human existence into basic patterns and fundamentals. It will happen soon we just need people to accept that life isn’t a fairy tale, and that we’re just animals running around killing and fucking each other.
