But also culture is influenced heavily by our evolution, but also also our evolution has been shaped by our cultures, and oh god it's all spiraling in on itself

the problem IMO is just that people try to force more detail out of studying this than can sensibly be had, basically all i'm confident in concluding from evolutionary psychology is that humans are inherently social to an absurd degree, and contrary to what a lot of people want to believe people do not suck, they just end up doing bad things due to circumstances.

Pepole are inherently good and we need to take care to dismantle the societal structures that make us be not good.
