    Lmao no they’re not. Humans are a communal species, it’s literally what we’ve evolved to be.

      At some point humans do in general attain that trait, in larger societies.

      Keep the group small, it’ll eventually grow larger. It literally all happened throughout human history, there are physical artifacts across the globe, all before globalization and communication technologies, and they all generally did the same thing. Or they were one of your “communal” societies that no longer exist because…
