Goes on a bit doesn’t she.

I don’t think I was born with a conscience. Not because I’m a sociopath. Just a human. Impulse control is learned, not innate.

Antelopes that didn’t bolt every time they saw a scary branch on the ground tended to be the ones that got got by the mambas. The giraffe who ignored an unfamiliar rustling in the trees might feast for longer on those yummy leaves, but she might also be the one pinned down by the lioness.

I’d imagine that these sorts of lessons would be fairly obvious to the majority of the herd: they only need to copy their most quick witted peer to survive.

Spool forward a bit, plunge people into mediated environments, and the Twitter Influencer becomes the one to copy. A monster, indeed.
