While the hypothesis of “fishhook theory” has long been held to scrutiny and doubt, a recent ground-breaking scientific breakthrough has been made by… two random pseudo-leftists on the internet… when they realized suddenly that the center-left has a strange history of allying with the far-right against communism.
True genius.
this dude is describing biological functions of fucking ants like it’s a requirement for socialism
like no i don’t think eusocial behavior ‘works’ for ants and mole rats, pretty sure that’s just how ants and mole rats work
fuckin lib try not to compare human social behaviors to insects or fantasy wolves challenge: level impossible
Yeah this is what liberals think. They believe humans have an ingrained, genetic method for how to organize society. However, they also believe liberalism overcomes our base genetic instincts to form a stable society as opposed to what’s more natural to us. According to liberals, our more natural state is pillaging, stealing, oppressing one another, etc.
It’s why you get liberals saying ‘human nature’ will always prevent leftist movements from succeeding. They believe only liberal democracy can overcome the ingrained, default way humans behave. It’s such a bleak ideology honestly.
Makes me think of the religious types who don’t understand how atheists can ‘behave well’ without the threat of eternal damnation
Telling on themselves a bit
It’s funny to read the origins of liberal thinking, like Hobbes and Rousseau and so on, and see how much of it is just quasi-religious (or sometimes explicitly religious) beliefs about human nature or the soul or some other metaphysical nonsense. Liberal ideology is based on some shit that some dudes just made up.
And even if we ignore all that, humans are eusocial animals too, like all the other animals
