Is war an adaptive trait? We’ve been killing each other for millennia and we’re still here, stronger and more productive than ever. Maybe that’s what really separates us?

Ipse dixit reasoning. Eastern philosophy got on top of this 2,400 years ago but Western philosophy never even broached the subject until the 17th century. It's one sense in which white people are still extremely backwards
