Humans are social animals. Social isolation can cause long term brain damage. There’s more to it, as you may have guessed. But the person you fundamentally are can be altered by much more than just the material stuff around you
Wow I would not expect that sort of reply from someone on Lemmygrad. You know some people are very very poor, and live in public housing in the 'hood, and are surrounded by liberals?

There’s more to us than just the material conditions around us. One example: friends, or lack thereof.
Reducing humanity down to less than what it is, is simplifying it. Even if it’s complicated compared to other perspectives
Explain to me how friends, or lack thereof, changes “human nature”?
