Basically, there’s a finite number of people our brains evolved to be able to consider as part of ‘our group’, and once you go beyond that number you tend to run into issues ‘humanizing’ those people and seeing them as complex personalities.
Exactly. I didn’t know that term but about all primitive communities consisted of about 100 to 150 individuals and trading with other communities. Kingdoms are something really new in evolutionary timespans, far newer than clothes, to which we already have slight adjustments in skin hair.
genuinely curious where you find that 100 individuals number? or how that applies if you are willing to share :)
They might be talking about the Monkeysphere - More professionally known as Dunbar’s Number
