Those mechanisms have been with us for hundreds of thousands of years.

Every time "they" make a discovery about early man, they push back when "sophisticated" behaviour and problems arose.

I think humans stopped evolving about 100 years ago and have started a profound decline of de-evolving back to their true essential animal nature. Soon the education system will have us resembling dumbed-down Neanderthals with a vocabulary that consists of only calling each other names, getting offended easily, and existing only for free handouts.
