You're right! A lot of what people mean when they say "human nature" is cultural and social, a product of stories we tell another. These are things can can, have been, and will continue to be changed. That said, there do appear to be some things that are not wholly learned. So perhaps it might be worth considering that humans are not wholly blank slates, to be formatted and molded to our infinite convenience. Again, you're absolutely right. Humans are made of stories and culture learnings and more! It just might be worth considering that complex low-hair plains apes might not be born pure and clean, waiting for any old arbirary formatting to come along.
