> Could you share the basis for saying they do, for those who are not primatologists?
You can look it up yourself, plenty of published research. I'm not a primatologist either but still managed to educate myself.
> Has someone objected?
You seem to be, in the most snide and backhanded way possible.
More generally yes people have been preaching (since the 60s majorly but obviously before that) that being kind, and that peace and love is and mutual reciprocity is not only one way to go about in life, but _it's the only way_ that you should pursue. And this very much the mainstream opinion. Meanwhile central banks have been printing money at zero interest to give to their friends, Saudis have been selling oil, states have been buying up weapons, bribing the US, etc.
And guess what? All of those people have lot more power and influence on the world today, than a guy living in the desert preaching how humans should be perfectly balanced at one with each and nature.
> How is that 'alpha wolf' behavior?
Zuckerberg retaining complete voting shares wasn't a power play?
Altman returning to oust the board and be CEO of OpenAI wasn't a power play?
Investors leveraging the outsized gains from an early success to bet on further outsized gains isn't a power play?
