    Name one animal where a hierarchy exists that starves other members of their species from the things they require to live. Name one animal where the hierarchies persist in a form after the individual at the top dies. Name one animal where the upper rungs of the hierarchies can punish the lower ones.

    I don’t want to return to monke.

            Seems like I put the cart before the horse. Let me elaborate:

            Social darwinists can return to monke (and die from recurring famines) if they want. But I will stay in the industrial age, where there’s abundant food, because I don’t want to die.

              Ok… Where’s the social darwinist? You sure you commented at the right spot? What does that have to do with anything discussed?
