Why are people horrible to one another?
>>
>>34577967
Cause most people only care about themselves.
>>
>>34577993
No they don't people care about people who do things for them.
>>
>>34578020
That's just an extension of caring about yourself. Caring about somebody else means caring about them for their sake, not yours.

Why are you being a dick?

organized religion
>>
>>34577967
lack of sensitivity and empathy... and there's a lot of selfishness too
>>
>>34577967
Sadism.
>>
>>34577967
Could be insecurity about themselves, envy, the desire to ascend not by their own merits, but by taking others down, sadism, selfishness, greed, lack of empathy, sense and desire to control others so that they can feel powerful... all those things and many more.

Conflict is in our DNA, sadly. As is praising the winners and targeting the losers for more punishment.

Our dystopian techno-feudalist surveillance hell has inflated callousness to unnatural levels as everyone is barely surviving and flailing wildly to push everyone else underwater to save themselves.

Cooperation is, as well.
>>
>>34579062
The kind of cooperation where the "low-value" individuals get singled out for more abuse then exiled
>>
>>34579181
it hasn't always been like that
>>
>>34579018
>>34579062
Both are true in a way. We have selfishness and desires, but we also, as social creatures, are able to understand and help each other. It just varies from human to human.
Could be for a number of factors, from poor upbringing or bad life, to one person just being more naturally aggressive, violent and less sensitive/sympathetic than others.

Because he only cares about himself
