I suppose I think of life as a partial battle against entropy, but human nature goes into play with the structures of society and it’s expectations which turn people into self-selecting assholes instead of the harder route of being a good human being, because it goes against the game that life proves as best for many groups of humans. Capitalism and individualism goes against the humanity we all want to be but actively discourages.
Edit: and to add to this to explain my understanding of this post and create more connection to the article in question, I was just discussing the Mandela Effect with my partner and how pop culture and group collusion affects our understanding of reality which in turn is affected by pop culture, a more intentional/unintended affect of satire AND group collusion.
