A former missile silo transformed into a luxury doomsday bunker offers a glimpse at how some of the ultra-wealthy are preparing for a potential catastrophe.
I always remember the Preppers show episode with the hippie commune. They were already involved with the local community and were talking about how they would just invite everyone to the party and keep scaling up. The show tried so hard to inject problems into the plan but they were the only ones who looked like they had a realistic idea. Everyone else was planning to solo the world or bug out to ???.
Real world there are plenty of examples of the local community pulling together before the government and cops show up to take charge and screw it all up.
What I believe is rather, the larger the group, the larger the chance to get a few psychopaths in there that screw things up for everyone. Psychopathy seems to have a prevailance of about 1% in the population.
Btw the division of labour economy we all live in is cooperative in nature. You might compete for roles in it, but the output of those roles is supposed to be cooperative. Anyone who’s work is purely competitive is basically someone who works solely to take something away from someone else. So essentially something akin to a thief in function. I consider that part of the problem, not part of the normal economy.

Humans are genetically disposed to cooperation.
Our financial system is mathematically disposed to competition.
Go figure.
“Humans are genetically disposed to cooperation.”
In small groups that know each other. Even then, maybe.
No, really in large groups too.
