Universe-25 and Behavioral Sink

Recommended Posts

Watched the new video by Mr and Mrs Gao, about an interesting experiment conducted in the 60s.

Some websites have documentation of it in English:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Behavioral_sink

http://www.todayifoundout.com/index.php/2018/12/that-time-a-guy-tried-to-build-a-utopia-for-mice-and-it-all-went-to-hell/

https://io9.gizmodo.com/how-rats-turned-their-private-paradise-into-a-terrifyin-1687584457

The experiment was an utopia for mice. Initially their numbers increase but after a few hundred days, they all died.

The video drew parallel to Japan and their declining population.

I can also see some similarities with modern Singapore - high GDP, crowded space, declining birthrate and increasing gay population. Hope Singaporeans don't end up like Universe-25.

I read about this article before. The mice eventually went extinct was the strangest part for me. How can they lost their animal instinct totally? That's quite bizarre.

I also read about human brain size actually decreases from being a hunter gatherer to a living in a society.  The size shrink further in a more sophisticated society. The theory is there are more reliance on others to get work done thus the human utilise less brain power. In simple words we become more stupid as the society progresses. LoL...

From the way I see humankind progress, we are basically working towards self destruction. See how AI and tech introduced these days are basically working against ourselves.
