I'm greedy, everyone around me is greedy, all of society around me is greedy, all of history that I studied through this lens is greedy.
Clearly humans are inherently greedy soulless bastards and would put a bullet in your head before sharing their surplus of oranges.
You're a moron. You're a moron for thinking that all of humanity can be boiled down to a single emotional factor/desire and then projecting that onto all of history and all of the people around you.
Log off and go talk with actually good people and your myopic lens of self projection will crumble as learn that not everyone is as callous and rotten as you.
This is mystical nonsense. Kind of like how ancient peoples explained nature using deities. It's just that people use bunk 17th and 18th century pseudoscience instead of gods.
Humans want enough. They don't naturally want more than others. It's the structure of society that creates greed. Greed is not a spirit inhabiting the bodies of individuals who then shape society to be greedy. It's a dialectical process between the base and the superstructure. It's not magical feelings stored in our DNA.
These faux "concessions" you're making in order to make your pseudoscience sound more palatable are easy to see through. You're pathetic for misunderstanding humanity to such an extent.

Fuck off and read the comment again.
Edit: also desire? Desire? You may as well have said motivation. It's a term which covers so much you might as well say nothing at all. Which would be good and you should try that next time before spouting your unexamined justifications for being a piece of shit who wipes his hands clean of a social system which destroys food while others starve.
