My (with no evidence mind) intuition always suggested to me that there is some Group Selection going on in evolutionary terms. It could be on the memetic level.

My (with no evidence mind) intuition always suggested to me that there is some Group Selection going on in evolutionary terms. It could be on the memetic level. I am aware the Selfish Gene debunked this. Yet the way different classes of humans relate to each other, again and again the same coincidences. There's something going on but I don't know what it is. In my country there were originally two major tribal alliances literally going back thousands of years. Today the people in the two major political parties are descended largely from those two tribes. Also largely these are disjoint sets. If there was some crossover it could be just natural selection in the way we're all related to Genghis Khan but that there are no descendants of Tribe X in Party Y suggests something else is up.
