I notice that some anthropologist believe all humans were egalitarian in the past, and others believe inequality was more common they we currently we think with hunter gathers.
This seems to along with anthropologist using modern hunter gathers as way to look at the past which is now considered not a best practice from what I read. Which this influenced the egalitarian hunter gathers idea even more.
yeah thats true. still, one ant is just part of a larger whole. basically the entire hill is a big machine. sometimes they can be adaptable but a lot of them are hardcoded to their natural environment and just straight up die elsewhere
