Are we really? I mean we are thaught that right. Evolution, darwinsim, survival of the fittest. That when all civility is gone, everyone regresses just to an animalistic state for themselves, everyone, no exceptions. I hardly this that is the case.
Yet I wonder, is that because we are like that or because we have been nurtured like that. And some people say if our genes were changed millenia ago by aliens, we ceased to be human, and can't really use that excuse anymore.
Maybe the reason people regress to riots and stuff, is because for their whole life by in large they live in a false environment, where their needs are never really handled and it is all bottled up, and the only way they can feel their needs is met is by material things, so the stealing makes them feel secure to get that in times of crisis.
Not sure, we should just take the way out, we are all animals. I think we can do better.
Now for me, I don't want a gun if society breaks down. Expecially if this comes true what people say and we lose 4.5 billion people. After I bury a few thousand people, I most likley will just say buddy, if you need to kill me, take me now, I am just tired of the smell and look of death.
Maybe we need some public service to teach people how to solve conflicts with words, and to share, and to grow a garden, or to kill a few animals themselves instead of paying the butcher to do it, and realize, the white protein was once living. I can get behind that.
