That is objectively wrong according to most historians and anthropologists. It is propaganda written by those in power to justify their abuse of power. What you are describing is generally seen as sociopathic and antisocial behavior. And this may come as a shock to you, but most people are not sociopaths.
The people with the most power and force are sociopathic though. So we can all be as empathetic as is reasonable, but a relatively small group of well armed people will take everything.
Anarchy and Libertarianism are the wishful thinking of the left and right. People may on average be good, but large enough groups never are.
The whole point of mutual aid is to prevent that though. It organizes people together to stop a small group of people from taking everything.
The hard part is getting everyone to participate in mutual aid when we live in a dog eat dog world that was built by the small group of well armed people.
Cute. Who protects the property? Mutual Aid sounds nice on paper. The truth of human nature is that the strong will take anything you work to build.
yeah, we don’t want the strong taking everything you build. Just bend over and let the rich do it instead, because that’s better for some reason
