    The thing is that it’s absolutely illusory that we as humans evolve beyond that

    Sounds like that makes it important for us to focus on it, culturally.

      Absolutely agree. It’s just about “how”. Do you think that clown show in the video is in any way constructive?

        Indirectly, yes. He’s ridiculous, but by engaging with him everyone in the video (the people not returning the carts) looks ridiculous.

        I don’t watch enough to see if there’s people who do return them, but I imagine they look a lot more normal than the alternative.

          Even if people return them, it does not help the case in any way. They do it now, yes. The other “shopping cart terrorists” are totally unaffected. Also the majority of those who returned the cart will eventually go back to not returning it.

          This is not a profound solution. This is just a clown show for social media.
