The simplistic and negativist idea whereby the modern human being must perforce resort to predominance, the club and the rules of the animal kingdom in order to stay alive. The single integralist ideal whereby the human being is given only two options for existence: "either being dominant, or being dominated". Those who fall into this "mental trap" (owing to imprinting, manipulation, disappointment, disorientation) look to the others with fear and uncertainty, start deteriorating to the sheer primal instincts of the human race by factually sacrificing the prospect of a happy and peaceful life in favor of a future of struggle for survival. Survivalism is the manipulator’s obsession.
I will give a few examples of survivalism by quoting comments by some readers of the psychoglossary who unfortunately have not yet had the strength (cfr. force) (and i wish they would find it in the future) to read it through the end, so they stopped somewhere and wrote quite dismissively:
"You should never wish to ever see what goes on in peoples’ minds"
"the human being is a territorial animal, with his/her competitions for any kind of resource (including sex), who is provided with a certain degree of greater intelligence than the rest of the animal kingdom, so he/she uses it also to beat his/her rivals"
"either you dominate or you are dominated in this kind of world, today I have started to believe it".
