Comment on The history of societal collapses are all just examples of Universe 25

I’m just gonna paste from a different comment:

It’s an experiment that was conducted to see what would happen when rats were given what people supposed would be a rat utopia. Things did not go well.

Here’s some videos, pick your poison lol

    Nope, you’re actually right, there were similar experiments performed on rats, with similar results, so I deleted my comment.
    
    Still feel like it’s not necessarily a good idea to apply the lessons to human society, but… yeah, depressing outcomes.

    Being social is being social. While I do think we’re not rats, lol, I do think we are both bound by the same laws of social dynamics. That’s why I’m seeing the similarities.
