Very true! But we survived Ice Ages, and lived hand to mouth (hunter, gatherers, humans are a unique animal) for millions of years to reach this point. We teach the next generation thanks to the gift of languages, that can be translated amongst each other. We strive to improve, and are one of the most adaptive species on this planet.

But we are still animals, and our want to kill one another is based on the primal need to sustain our own seed, and kill anothers off.

Kinda like if you put 2 (non gelded male) alpacas in the same pen, they will attempt to bite or kick each other in the testicles.

This video is a good demonstration on how the actions of a few brilliant men, could change the fate of nations. And even how we could potentially end ourselves.

Hats off to the Japanese artist who made this, truly a meaningful and moving piece.
