Nicole ParsonsBillionaires have comforting narratives that they tell themselves to justify their greed & cruelty.
Favorites are those about the long held belief of the "lazy slave" and "undeserving poor".
Ryan FisherAccording to E.O. Wilson's work on eusocial species, it is the cooperative & social sharing species that have existed the longest. Ants. Bees.
Humans are one of the few non-insect eusocial species.
Humans survived several population bottlenecks because of our eusocial behavior, while our other primate cousins went extinct. Cro-Magnon, Denisovian, Neanderthal.
In crises, selfish behavior reduces survival rates, even of the selfish.
Longtermism is an anti-survival cult.
