Are humans flawed?
I would say yes.
I will base this on a single fact, or observation..,.
Our desire to survive.
It is a basic instinct at our very core. So deeply ingrained it is of subconscious nature.
Think of nature, where many species succumb to death to assure their kind survive, the salmon being a great example.
I think this instinct drives much political, and social agendas, and policies.
Which, has evolved to a current mindset, and promotion, that it sets up that instinct to combat perceived threats to all of our own belief structure.
In essence, it is a revolving problem predicated on who is holding sway.
However, I believe we do have the capacity to overcome this when we put others, first.
But that's a beech, for sure, as exampled by the vitriol we see folks hurling at each other.
Yes, I am part of that problem too, arg
