Quotes such as "The Natural State of People are the Upper Class and the Lower Class, the Rich and the Poor" etc, enough for Communism.
Good and Bad, Corrupt and Naive, for example.
Or are Humans limitless in a sense that these natural states don't exist or can be overcame?
They're probably are some natural states of people, in my opinion, I don't know how scientifically proven they are. I remember reading a Collin Wilson book about crime which spoke about dominant 5 percent groups in populations. Along those lines I remember in part of the book he implied that this specific nature of human dominance could be manipulated, he spoke about removing the dominant 5 percent of prisoners from the general population in a POW camp eliminated escape attempts very effectively.
There maybe a pattern to all human nature in every scenario but with an animal as intelligent as a human there are so many variables in behaviour it would probably take an animal more intelligent and knowledgeable than humans are right now to be able to easily see these patterns of human nature.
Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.
Impersonation is treason.
