Interesting video indeed. And quite disturbing. Looks like the ever-cynical Thomas Hobbes may have actually been an optimist, lol.
And not coincidentally, of course, 7000 years ago was in fact thought to be the point of origin of....patriarchy. I am surprised that this video didn't even mention the word "Kurgans" once, as the Kurgans (broadly defined) were essentially the founders of patriarchy along with its demonic brainchildren of war and imperialism.
(Or, what Riane Eisler alternatively calls the "dominator model" of society, if one prefers a less loaded term, but that is kinda beating around the bush. It's PATRIARCHY.)
As Shakespeare famously said, “The evil that men do lives after them; the good is oft interred with their bones.”
