This is a good point. If I weren't working on Bitcoin privacy research, I would find it fascinating to be a human behavior analyst.

Politics skews human behavior, so it becomes an economic derivative, not a concious choice.

not a conscious choice? is it political or economic or both? why does it matter? elaborate please

I'm entering a restaurant while other customers are leaving. There is a bottleneck at the door. If I see the passerby is a stereotype of my political opponents, I rush through first and do not hold the door open for them. If I see the passerby is a stereotype of my political allies, I smile, nod, and hold the door open for them.

This sort of friction exists in every single interpersonal medium because politics distorts the cooperative game, and turns society into a backstabbing match. There's no point in tracking intermediary steps towards inevitable political violence, you'd be better off just studying combat tactics.

Why are you entering a restaurant? If the reason is hunger you would not hold the door for anyone

Hold the door for females, be a gentleman
