What is the difference between indigenous tribes fighting with spears and modern nations threatening each other with nuclear bombs?

Question from the Internet:

“Are people who live in the jungle and throw spears more peaceful than us?”

No, they are not. The difference is that they are still at a lower level of egoistic development than modern human society and they have less advanced technology to spy on each other, manipulate and murder each other.

Human nature itself is violent, since we all inherently sense ourselves as isolated, standalone beings that need to secure their survival in a volatile world at the expense of others, who need to define and prove themselves in comparison to others.

And this instinctive drive towards conflict, control and war increases through human development as our individualistic, self-serving and self-justifying ego constantly grows.

Human history is nothing else but the chronicle of this ever-growing and ever-intensifying human ego, as it drives us through history’s vicious cycles that keep repeating themselves.

Thus there is nothing to aspire to when we look at those tribes — or the still intact multi-generational family structure in developing countries — that still live closer to nature and have stronger mutual ties and cooperation. As they develop they will become exactly the same as we are in developed societies — developed according to the ego.

Out truly Human development will start when we finally recognize the destructive, cancer-like qualities and behaviour of our inherent ego and also learn how to exist and behave above and independent of it, using its irrepressible power and insatiable desire for more, for positive, constructive and collective purposes and goals.
