I really, really disagree with that.

You know what seems like it was universal in every ancient culture? Guest rights. Helping people in need. Stewardship over the environment.

Humans default to "humanity vs the world". It's only when things get big, when there's power to be had, that the worst parts of human nature get drawn out

We didn't split the atom because we were too free - it was because people with a lot of power feared losing power. We don't wage war because of freedom... We do it for power and profit of the people at the top
