It's everywhere including the jungles and seas, big animals feed on the smaller species. Humans are not far from this mentality, for mere material possessions, nations kill each other to acquire wealth. And the survivors would rule over the losers as masters and treat them as slaves. For centuries the world continuously harbor chaos, with no solution to it, we'd have to adapt and stay stronger against difficulty and hardship.
At times I don’t know what to think of these guys either, they aren’t being advised properly and are been encouraged with the idea of a greater suffering to birth the next good or it is the fact that, they aren’t directly impacted by their decisions which brings about these sufferings.
At the very least, they are way above certain levels to suffer with the masses and as such, they benefit off their expense. It’s just terrible what we humans can do to ourselves just to build long lasting wealth.
Until we get to understand that we share this world together, it’s always going to be difficult or impossible taking these predatory prey instinct out of humanity.
