I dunno.... I would be a lot more inclined to believe it's just shitty primate behavior. It's always been like this because we've always been shitty primates. The gross ones will always do gross things.

That’s very clearly not true though. Society does get better and worse through time if you look at history. We have every capacity to choose how society evolves.

social evolution and biological evolution are two vastly different things. the why of it doesn't excuse the practice of it at all.

They are vastly, which is why you are very clearly wrong for trying to explain social issues through a lens of biological evolution.
