gollark: What?
gollark: Humans are just bizarrely tribal, bad at dealing with faraway problems (both far away in time *or* space), pretty competitive if you have scarce stuff, and like playing status games.
gollark: I think you can find examples of humans, well, competing before modern capitalism quite easily, but it depends what you mean exactly.
gollark: What do you define as "capitalism"?
gollark: However, they don't, and it satisfies their actual not-caring-about-others values.
