It proves that mankind doesn't need a state to survive.
We do need a collective, and we do need a
leader, an individual who takes charge, unifies a group, and leads the way.
A natural leader will walk first, and expose himself to dangers, which makes his followers admire him for it.
This is undeniable, and a deep rooted essence of humanity.
The question is: What do we do with this - in societies where human groups count several thousand, even in small spots? Even just a normal swede neighborhood can have 5-10K people in one spot. That is "not natural" (but it is still there as an undeniable fact - but as a symptom of nature being imperfect)
Mold will choke itself out, and die, when they overpopulate a spot.
It's only a matter of reaching the "ceiling" of the ammount of people "allowed" to exist on this planet. Unfortunately, we have yet to consume
everything. We can theoretically keep populating every last bit of unpopulated space. We can theoretically keep our exponential growth, and just fill up more and more and more land. Urban centres can only grow. A place that is small today, like say Uddevalla, could theoretically contain 1 million people by the year 3000, 10 million by the year 4000, 100 million by the year 5000, we will just keep seeing it as normal when the time comes.
Idunno where I'm going with this.
I'm gonna go somewhere and cry now.
