Video Description:
my version of human nature. I didn't contradict myself, humans also have a "single" nature I think: the philosophy that combines all those of the animal world...

| pigs, cows, sheep, dogs, bitches, rats, chimps, burros, snakes, wolves... I can't think of any other animalistic insults people use to define people right now... Here's a new one: extreme individualists are spiders. |

| What do you mean by human nature? Do you mean human behaviour? If so, I think it is a fact that human behaviours vary and have varied throughout our cultural history and our evolutionary past. |

| honestly my discussion of human nature is reactionary to the use of the term, I don't think it's a particularly good term, it implies we are stuck to certain ways more than we are. but insofar as it has a meaning, it is supposed to be, yes, a framework to explain the many social and psychological phenomenon we see... e.g. war, but also art. |

| not sure what you mean by relativism, but primitivism on the other hand, nevermind.. Flexibility of our ability to imitate most anything is i think a strength, yet can be manipulated into a weakness and exploited. IE turning people into droin ants in a colony. |
