Iirc, scientists found that chimps raised in captivity and then released to the wild, outside of the typical patriarchal social structure of wild chimps, were a lot kinder to each other. Could say something about how violence is a perpetual cycle in animals just as much as it is in humans

Just remember that the leader or alpha male is not always the strongest and meanest. They can also be empathetic and protect weaker members of the clan and settle disputes, and thus gain support through acting as a leader. There are mean alphas aswell, but it dose not end well for the bully when they no longer are the strong one. Its usually in the groups intrest not to have a big bully as a leader. Females can also hold big influence in the groups by rallying all the other females.

wrong on all of them only weaker alphas tray to appeasing their clan , so they don't get replaced strong alphas have no mercy it is absolutely in clan's interests to have strong alpha, because current alpha constantly wil be challenged and if he lose, new alpha will kill all the children to make room for his children only happens with weak alphas

@@AmirDarkOne all alpha males want to appease the other chimps within the group because they need alliances to maintain power regardless of how strong they are, that’s the whole point of grooming it’s to make connections and alliances between members of the group. That’s why an alpha male who is just a dick to every other chimp in the group is just going to get overthrown by another male who is good at making allies because nobody likes the alpha male. This is why the most successful alpha males are usually the ones who can both make and maintain allies but are also strong enough to defend their position from potential threats both internal and external.

(Editing my comment just for one of my replies. When I say "less evolved" than humans, what I mean is chimps arent as advanced or complex as hominins, and what I describe is what some experts believe is one thing that holds them back from evolving into something more humanlike) I remember reading on anthropology and they had a chimp expert chime in to say that the main thing holding chimps back from evolving into something more advanced like early species of human is the fact that so many of them do not have the same kind of empathy that humans and even dogs have. For example, you're taking a walk in the park one day and you see someone off the trail who has been pinned under a fallen tree and is begging you desperately to help them. If you're a normal human, theres something inside of you that says you cant just ignore this, and you either attempt to help or call someone to help, even though you do not know this person, they are a stranger to you. And if you DONT help for what ever reason, you may struggle for many years to live with the fact that someone was begging you to save their life and you didnt do anything, and just left them there. Their cries may haunt you in your memories for the rest of your life. This his how the average human is. The human species does have its violent members but the average functioning human does not want to see another human suffer, and will want to help a person who they see is in immediate danger, even if that person is a stranger to them. The human will have the desire to help another human even if the human helping does not receive anything in exchange for helping. We have seen this play out in situations where there is a car accident and someone is pinned under a car, and several people stop their cars on the side of the road and get together to help lift the car off of the person, even though none of them know each other. This is an extremely unique trait among humans as most animals in the wild will only try to rescue members of its own pack/herd/troop The chimp experts chimps are not like humans in this regard. The average chimp could be sitting on a riverbank and eating fruit, and if it sees another chimp drowning but that chimp is a stranger to the first chimp, that first chimp will not have any instinct or desire to even reach its hand out to save the drowning chimp, even if there is no danger or downsides to helping that other chimp. The chimp will continue what its doing while the other chimp drowns. This chimp would only help other chimps if it already knew that chimp, such as it being a member of its own troop. Experts believe that the reason empathy helped humans evolve was because being only concerned for oneself or ones own group would lead to less cooperation, which would mean overall less members of the species would survive. Human empathy would help in the evolution of language and cooperation and tool use. Empathy also helps us find ways to communicate with other humans who cannot communicate with spoken language, which means more people could be helped and would survive. You couldnt call humans a truly evil species without ignoring the fact that there are people who are able to thrive with disabilities thanks to their fellow humans, disabilities that are normally a death sentence in the animal kingdom

A lot of words to say "humans are more advanced because we get along better, and cooperation makes stuff happen." Also, chimps are not any less "evolved" than humans, there is no such thing as "less evolved." Evolution makes every organism the best for its own environment, even living fossils are evolved, they just never had a reason to change their lifestyle.

From the outset he paints humans as excessively violent. Humans are not violent compared to most animals, and it very rare that we kill each other. We build multi multi million societies, where we hunt down and gently punish those who are violent. When humans on a large scale are being violent to each other, it raises concern with humans on the other side of the planet. Most humans basically never need to live in fear of their fellow humans.

Compared to most other primates, or even mammals as a whole, even in most developing countries, us humans treat women comparatively well. Not saying women weren’t historically disadvantaged, but at the same time, they (usually) weren’t included in drafts, and they are generally the ones that choose which man will be their partner, and not vice versa.
@code8825
@code8825 6 ай бұрын
Female chimps also aren’t included in the chimp draft, as he mentioned with the whole hunting and war being done by the males. I mean you are right that we do treat women better than literal chimps, it was obviously a bit hyperbolic and joking when he said that, but I think that idea can just come from the fact that we are so intelligent and aware of what we’re doing, women still go through a lot of abuse and awful things, and if you don’t believe me, if you know more than 5 women in your life you almost certainly know some people who have gone through some terrifying stuff. I didn’t realize how bad it was until I got into my 20s and learned from people I was close to, in my teenage years I always thought the fear for women was exaggerated- now I’m sad to say I can completely understand. Also, in a lot of the animal kingdom, it’s the males who have to be really colourful and interesting to attract female attention- for humans, it tends to be women who really make themselves look colourful and interesting. Obviously looking good as a man is important too, but just consider female fashion and makeup compared to male fashion and makeup, you understand what I mean. It seems like, broadly speaking, for women it’s more important what you look like, for men it’s more important your social status, economic status, etc, which is similar to the ape/chimp “hierarchical status” thing. This obviously has pluses and minuses for either position- for women, it might mean choosing the man with better status over the one you have more of a connection with but who is just as economically bad off as you are. People might think I’m exaggerating on these things but I think a lot of the time people can come from a very privileged context, coming from a Western European nation, or a place like the USA or Canada. Most of the world doesn’t really work that way, and these are very real issues for large amounts of the population

Yea obviously humans will treat women better than animals do lol. We are able to comprehend right from wrong. Regarding choosing "which man will be their partner" that's incorrect. While (most) women are able to do that now, in middle Eastern countries they don't. There's still arranged marriages that exist and even getting married off as children. Even back then in America women would marry and couldn't even divorce. While women can divorce now, there are many times they feel they can't because of abusive partners (not including arranged marriages, its obvious why they cant). I don't think we can say that we treat women "fairly well" when I think it could always improve, especially since there's still so many problems with how to treat women, but I do think that about everything else in the world too (about things improving). Don't even get me started on this whole "alpha male" movement going on right now as well where a lot of the times it's just talking down on women and wanting to feel like they're overpowering them.

So this girl said thats cruelty and started talkin about it. And then said i wouldnt do anything that bad to any animal except dolphins. They are bad and so on. I couldnt say there but dolphins get all that shit and most of other psycho animals left unnoticed. maan all those primates... aggression accompanies with sociality out there in wilds. no wonder we came from same origin

@@luigidisanpietro3720 I'm not involved with the video in any way really, but I enjoyed it too. The bonobos thing is mostly because, for them, close physical contact is a predominant way of comunicating, expressing itself... that way, quite a lot. But if you think about it, someone caressing your head can be a way of comunicating your closeness to them. So it becomes reasonable to see how their more extreme behavior may have developed, as grooming became just that important.

You need to do one on Bonobos. Very different in behavior and actually slightly closer to humans than chimps are. Bonobos are led by Alpha females, who keep their sons in check. Bonobos and chimps are now mating and producing viable offspring. If this is possible, then they are still essentially the same species. And that species demonstrates the extremes of human behavior. I'd do one myself but I'm no good with graphics.

Dogs and wolves produce viable offspring. Humans and Neanderthals did too when they were still around. So did Neanderthals and Denisovans, confirmed by a fossil’s DNA. Very closely related species can produce viable offspring so I think Bonobos and the Common Chimpanzee are different species.

Unsure if self-idolatry should also be introduced to chimps through a camera/attention addiction. Animals in the wild who also recognize themselves in a mirror tend to self-obsess but insecurity does not seem to be a thing in non-humans. Self-worship was never a legitimate evolutionary step, but rather a mark of poor impulse-control and lack of understanding moderation.
