Connor here: A handy reminder. It is not clear how much the system of re-searching Socipaths is ultimately related to the Western values and cultures that Neuberger quotes. Today, there is certainly a non-Western society in the West that is as Lapacio as Toze.
Also, the village of Ashainica in Peru, a small community that is not organized, earned capitalism, practices true direct democracy on a smaller, more manageable scale, and lives with each other with the environment. This was common long ago, but we must disagree with Neuberger’s conclusion that we can have this at the moment we want. Rich people who never give up their malicious wealth and power, and many people who want that wealth in themselves. Even countries that are trying to experiment with new modes are experimenting with new modes of production, distribution and breeding. That’s why it’s best to plan.

“Is modern capitalists inevitable end to social evolution? Many believe that is the case. Or is our current culture just a choice, a choice that has become global?”
“Really, here.”
An increasingly asked question about capitalism – is it inevitable? Is that the cause of our sadness? Are there really any options? – It relates to the questions we have explored in the “Every Dawn” and “Western Hegemony” series.
Capitalists will make us believe that the advancement of what they call “civilizations” is linear. It’s not a flowering bush with so many purposes, but it was topped with a single lineage of roses that adopted what we experienced as capitalism in Lapacio, or other flavors of its control for exploitation for all others.
According to them, they will not eschew the organisation of a capitalist state, and there will be nothing further ahead – there is no Star Trek utopian world where greed disappears. They say it’s a fantasy. Freedom means freedom to chase money and food, or hunger.

Living in non-classical America
If states and empires, exploitation and greed, social strict hierarchy, and work exploitation are the inevitable endpoints of “evolution” towards “civilization,” what explains this? How was it possible to correct it?
Major language groups (sources) before North America

yes. Most people living in villages and tribes had flat social classes, forced labor, and while the men and women communities were not hungry for food, people around them often ate and picked bones.
Can you imagine the original America allows most people to die while hardening almost all of their food? The hoarding itself was considered a crime and would have been severely punished.
When the former Americans (the one we call “Indians”) met Europeans, they were appended in the way of liss. For example, here is how white people treated white people along the Oregon Trail:
Many travelers expressed mixed feelings about the fort [that dotted the trail]. They wanted to see, but they were conspiring about what they found. The prices were too high, and the residents were too savages [the museum’s language]and how they look is disappointing.
Chester Ingersol wrote in 1847 that Fort Hall “is an unprecedented place for immigrants we saw – they are almost honest or human feelings.”
In contrast, when “immigrants” whites, whites on wagon trains encountered their former America, they found help. This is a transcription from the museum’s exhibition on living on the Oregon Trail.

What is the difference between the two in other people’s treatment? The way culture lives. value. Western culture displayed by the Fort Thue. Non-West American culture shown by their Wellcom. Life in the 1500s on two different continents.
Conclusion
The “civilization” and “freedom” we know were chosen in the western Father God by one way of conquering unsets, inherited cultures, and mere way of life. There were other methods with very different values.
Life does not evolve from “sparrows” to “civilization.” It is a Western myth, and mostly its founding myth. What we call “civilization” is actually a savage person, and others choose differently.
The moment we want to do so that we can.
