It would never happen because as soon as they take a little too much, they’d be kicked out of the troop. Like with everything else, overpopulation is a big part of the problem here. A human troop kicking you out doesn’t have huge consequences like it did when we lived in groups of 150 or so.
Overpopulation is a eugenics myth. Stop spreading it.
The problem is our economic and political systems incentivize the hoarding of resources behind private ownership in order to leverage access to them in return for status and power.
Stop handwaving from your underinformed pedestal and listen. Human population exploded in response to becoming more stationary and, more directly, in response to widespread grain agriculture (encouraging earlier weaning via oatmeal so ladies could get back to work). As populations grew, so did food demands… keep going for a bit and you get states and taxes and wealth disparity. Keep going for a bit and you get to where we are today. I’m not saying kill people - I’m saying that resource hoarding became a thing when we stopped hunting and gathering and started being more competitive over land and other resources. We started being more competitive when we started rubbing shoulders too frequently with people outside of our core tribes - when population exploded.
The monkeys would kill the hoarder and take the bananas…

Nice attempt at shifting the goal posts. Did the human population bloom? Yes. Is that the same as Overpopulation? No.
Overpopulation is a myth of eugenics. Full stop. Nothing you said changes this. I know how civilization came about. I’ve read Graeber plenty.
Oh and you gonna end it with being xenophobic nonsense too? Rubbing shoulders with other cultures is a GOOD THING you regressive, primitivist fuckwit.
Shifting the goalposts… back to where I put them? Go back to whatever hobby calms down your condition.

Seek professional help.
You’re not actually listening to anything I tell you.
I am receiving professional help.
I have requested more.
They refused to give me more.
I asked again.
The therapist didn’t show up.
How tf is that my fault or problem at this point?
Lol, you finally figured that out? I haven’t read a thing you’ve said.

I’m broadcasting.
Projecting more like it.
