Ok, so a serious answer.

Relating mouse behavior to humans while not automatically wrong, can be a problem when trying to abstract it.

The free mouse has nothing to loose by freeing the other mice, therefore it isn't a selfless act. There is no self-sacrifice. It can also argued that it's a selfish act as it increases the chance of getting a mate. Then there's the question of how much are mice actually even self aware.

That's usually not the case with humans. Humans are much more complicated than mice.
The mouse also does not understand, know or care how that locked mouse got there. It's just doing what's beneficial to the survival of the species in that moment.

Like you said, the reason I'm eating pizza is that my ancestors learned to cooperate, but cooperation requires action from everyone involved, not blind empathy. What do you do with people not cooperating? It also requires a means of communication and a framework on which to communicate.
Mice do not have any of that.

If we want to apply mouse experiments to humans, let's do the mouse utopia. I know you are in favor of providing everyone with means of survival (food, water, shelter).

BTW memetics are a great tool

@druid being able to communicate effectively is pretty much the biggest cheat in nature

To save on energy, we should ban open source software and only distribute compiled binaries. People compiling software themselves are using much more energy, which contributes to global warming.

It was positively reviewed by the people she fucked and their friends hoping for crumb of that coochie

holy shit, wikipedia cites zoë quinn's "Depression Quest" game as "positively received" and that all the negative reviews were just "harassment"

yeah right

@druid
Maybe that's why mice are eating garbage and I'm eating pizza :PepoSmug:
