Where is lawbreaking not just visible, but designed to be seen? Where is antisocial behaviour worn as a badge of honour? Where is pleasure gained directly from causing distress? And where is reckless endangerment often ignored by the police or treated with the mildest of punishments? The answer is on the roads.
Men have risk-taking burned into their DNA thanks to hundreds of thousands of years of primate evolution. This is not anything that can be switched off.
And It will come out whether society wants it to or not.
What truly matters is if there is a venue in which such risk-taking can freely exist, equally as unrestrained and chaotic, without impacting wider society. Because if that venue doesn’t exist… any venue immediately available will be violently cracked open regardless of what anyone wants.
It all comes down to supply and demand. If the demand is there, supply will be generated regardless of the punishments in place to discourage it. And frequently in spite of punishments, as successful evasion becomes an integral part of the risk-taking as well.
You cannot smother basic human nature. That has never worked at any time in human history. All you can do is divert it and insulate the rest of society from it.
the bioessensialist likes to thing their dumbassery is merely a design of nature rather than a conscious decision to be defeatist and interpret everything in self-serving ways
That’s like saying “evolution isn’t real”.
Actually, no. That is saying exactly that.
So you’re a flat-earther of the young-earth-creationist variety. Cool beans.
