I feel like this way of understanding sociology can explain highly individualistic behavior, but it’s a stretch to say that evey human interaction is highly individualistic (or rather “in-group” thinking). I’m sure we can agree that SOME human interactions do not fit this pattern and I even think it’s MOST of human interactions.
“Who would be nice or considerate to a person they don’t know and never will meet again?” well actually quite a lot.
Nah, I think you’re taking my opinion way too far. I’m only saying that much of our behavior is explained here, more so than I’ve seen in any other single theory. Sure, we’re far more complex than a Cracked article can explain, but that’s a lotta bang for the buck in a single notion.
No, we’re not absolutely ruled by the Monkeysphere, but it sure explains a lot of fuckery.
