This Malthusian “human nature” shit is possibly the most insidious and successful bit of capitalist propaganda. It’s accepted as fact by so many people, they don’t even consider for a second that it might be a different way, that humans adapt to the environment they’re in. And it’s used to justify literally anything.
That’s why I hate rugged individualism in zombie movies/games: “it’s law of the jungle now, everyone for themselves”—motherfucker, you literally have a higher chance of survival as part of a group.
Right? This isn’t human nature, this is virus nature. Though I am starting to suspect that there are more than a few quislings in high places…

British in the 20th century: Loses the empire after India gets its independence
British in the 21st century: We peacefully handed back everything
British colonial strategy:
Option 1
Genocide local population
Replace with Anglos
Give independence to Anglos
Anglos agree with everything you do anyways

Grant monarch independence, absolving yourself of any obligations, while retaining control of the government
