What if it wasn't either? What would that world look like? I try to picture a world where we all get along and resolve conflict via communication. My preference would not to rub my genitals together with random people lol.

My comment on the bonobos would be that our society can be anything and we as humans have decided that being nasty and brutish protecting our “property” from its forcefully takeover.

I agree. We're more sophisticated than we seem to think. The key is to push sociopaths out of power because they tend to project their insecurities and limitations onto everyone. We're so much better than our leaders

Nos évolutions sont diverses puis relatives à divers matraquages il en est de même des divers types de fragilités qui peuvent être également d'ordre pathologique ou non à rajouter contexte voire l'origine à prendre compte et à quel moment T d'une histoire de vie

I’ll be nasty and brutish as a last resort in response to force in certain situations, but otherwise 💯

To picture a world where we relate like humans, not like either chimps or bonobos, probably consider most of your everyday interactions.

Consensual; pleasant; respectful; mindful of other’s rights, personhood, boundaries, and desires; personally responsible; socially egalitarian

To picture a world where we relate like humans are meant to, go beyond this to consider the happiest family you can: inspiring, deeply loving and caring, generous, thoughtfully considerate

Sounds like a civil society

Un type de matraquage societal afin que nous puissions coexister avec des normes que nous conceptionnons à des fins d'équilibre

Nous sommes proches hélas plus proches du Chimpanzé
