  • But those were significantly smaller groups of people with significantly worse quality of life.
    In addition the ones that got bigger naturally evolved centralized governing structures. Even before that all the groups had leaders or some group(elders) making decisions that can effect the whole group.

    Cleaning a outhouse after 50 people from time to time, isn’t that big of an issue and can be done just for the good of the whole group. It can be easily done in rotation or a group just gets together in an afternoon and digs a new one.

    Doing the same after 100 000 up to 1 000 000+ people is in orders of magnitude more difficult and time consuming.

    Same applies to any governing structure. Even the idea OP brought up needs a governing body of some sort to allocate resources and work plans.






  • That seems kinda too idealistic view of the world.
    I know much more people who, if not directly forced, would let the dishes or basically any environment around them completely mould and break down before even considering cleaning up even just the mess they have left behind, than people who altruistically do clean up after themselves and others.

    I do agree that living in a cleaner and nicer society should be enough of a motivation and for some it is, but there’s not enough of us.

    We can already observe it in many public spaces where trash gets left laying around even if trash cans are available or public bathrooms or showers or my favorite example in the gym where plates get constantly left on the machines and cable attachments just piled up wherever those fell.







  • Location specific average, of course that changes based on location. Not that it’s bad, just that it’s noticable because it stands out from others. Like if everyone were to wear black clothes and one person wears red, they would stand out. But different shades of dark grey or even just darker colors, would be unnoticeable difference.

    Even before I went on testosterone you could probably tell if I’d shaved from 20 yards.

    But that was the point, unless actually focusing and looking for it. It’s completely unnoticeable from that far away. Unless far away from the average, maybe up to the level of average guy, though even that would require actual focusing on the person and then specifically their legs.

    So the other person had a point. It becomes noticable only when fully focusing on the other person and specifically their body at which point it has to be a rather intimate situation.

    Why else would you give that much specific attention to other person?
