It can always be better but I think pure nature is even less fair and can be absolutely cruel. We are very spoiled of our cultural progresses living in a huge bubble where everything is pink and fluffy compared to “real life out there in wild nature”.
I just wanted to point out that we humans already made life more fair. Of course it could be better and it sucks when people are mean, but at least we mostly don’t just beat each other to death suddenly or dueling on the streets any more.
Mean this with respect but it’s not that simple. Bonobos have matriarchs and when there’s a violent abuse like a rape, the female bonobos rip the others genitals off as a show punishment against their actions. Or how elephants care for and mourn their dead. If we were in the wild, our life wouldn’t be that of a deer, rabbit or bear, we are a pretty unique species where most of our closely related within our genus are wiped so all we have left is to look at monkeys for simulatry. Be it today or 100,000 years ago, homo sapien was just as smart then as now.
You list other animals as positive examples and then say yourself that our life wouldn’t be like other animals.
When we were still small hunter gatherer groups, individuals who made problems or simply weren’t strong enough or a bit sick would cold heartedly be left behind alone which was a death sentence for early humans sooner or later.

Yeah but I don’t live in nature so what do I give a fuck? I just want people to stop being assholes to each other
