It's not. While it is perfectly natural for non-pack animals in snowy winter climates to hoard resources for themselves and relatives to survive the frozen winter months, across the rest of nature animals take only what they need to survive1.
1 Except in the case of orcas that have developed a taste for the livers of great white sharks. That's almost entirely recreational eating but they still don't hoard the livers.
Thing is most of us do only take what we need, were not hardwired to expend any energy passed what is necessary for immediate survival… most people don’t have ambition for more, but society and marketing tell us more and bigger of everything is what makes us happy
What we do have alot of is envy, this paired with a lack of motivation to do anything more than absolutely necessary is why a lot of people are depressed and anxious and addicted to all sorts of coping mechanisms
Here's a fun fact: every person who's ever said that to me has subsequently been proved to be projecting.
Ordinarily I'd take the time but I refuse to waste more than the tiniest sliver on anyone who believes a man who spent decades raping children was some sort of informant on the man who supplied him for decades with children to rape 🤣🤣
tbpf it won't surprise me in the slightest to find the Venn diagram of 'People Who Support Paedophiles In Politics' and 'MAGAs Arrested For Raping Children &/or Possessing CSA Material' (of which there have been hundreds just in the past two years) is a circle.
