Rule by force is what we as a species have been conditioned to believe is best for us. Who & how are laughing all the way to the bank.

Aint that the truth!

there is no other animal that doesn't also follow the same principles though (is there?).

Which leads to a logical conclusion it is not conditioning, but the natural order of things?

Maybe that is why we are having a hard time with it - we are trying for something different ....??

If mind control is a thing & it's being used That's conditioning.

I'm saying that the premise that 'rule by force' is not exclusive to humans - it throughout nature...

ergo it might be manipulation, yes, but not conditioning...we have it in our genes already, is my point.
