    some societies clearly had prosocial tendencies

    All societies must necessarily be prosocial, it’s how our species evolved to survive, just like prosocial tendencies are necessary for ants.

    But that’s different from saying we didn’t evolve to be selfish like the post’s article claims. Humans are always trying to get what they themselves want, even if that’s just a drink or a blanket to keep warm.
