Today, for all but a trivial few of the 8.2 billion humans, there is no village, only jungle.

The perversion of "individualism" has destroyed all of the good coalitions (villages). The human individual today is back to an "every man for himself", "Me against the world!" singleton strategy for winning at the game of life. The good news is that today's jungle is less chaotic and violent than the jungle of a half million years ago. The bad news is that the jungle of antiquity was merely indifferent, but today's jungle is actively, sentiently hostile to you. Today's urban jungle is not the creation of Mother Nature; it is constructed by evil, predatory coalitions!
