Your honest opinion of human nature

[hierophant]

Man prefers chains then freedom, he lives in mechanical habit then he does exercising his will, I have existed for 25 years and have learned that I myself have given onto chains and would prefer if my parents took care of me. This hurts me greatly, because this is the reality of the situation, when someone is traumatized, if they never deal with the issue they become either parasitic, nasty, vengeful, willfully ignorant, infantile or violent. I do not think however that this is the totality of our capability, I think we are capable of living a quality life, but when we are traumatized or burned by the elements we are stalled from our true ability.

What do you gentleman think?
-has it always been this way?
-Will the current condition continue to be this way?
-Is man inherently good, evil, or programmable?

In my country, people refer to philosophy and psychological issues as a disease of the rich

Why's that?

Why's that?

Since only the wealthy even consider such things, most people are unable to accumulate wealth and always in survival mode
In the U.S., the savings rate is 3.0, while in Vietnam it is 1.1.

Our nature is based on our times. The current phase shift is the Magian spirit versus the Faustian spirit, so it obviously varies based off of that.

Nature, in itself, is a never-ending cycle of selfish behavior that promotes the survival of one group over another. Humanity is no different, and everything we do is just a big game of pretend started by people countless years ago who were just like us, but with less accumulated knowledge.

We're here on this forum because the rate of our societal and technological progression has begun to outpace the natural systems put in place by our body's desire for a partner, the desire to be a father(or simply the act of sex), and participating as an equal peer. Humanity is as evil as nature can be and will remain that way.

 

[LeFrenchCel]

Human nature is evil and selfish.

If the human was naturally good, we would be able to live in society peacefully for milleniums atp without having tons of laws, rules and customs.

I think this is the natural state of man and human nature is just a race for authority and authoritative, hierarchical jargon
