Human minds are universally intelligent, we can figure out any solvable problem when given enough time and resources. There's a race between mind and evolutionary forces to keep us from solving the problem of suffering, which would free us from serving organismic and social goals

So do you mean that eventually we’ll solve the suffering problem and it’s just a matter of time and then we might face societal decay? Or that the mind and the evolutionary forces are trapped in the race forever which is the way society and micro organisms perpetuate themselves?

Individuals have solved it all the time, for millennia, and then they equanimously die in caves or hang out in monasteries. But they mostly don't have offspring, so evolution takes care of that.
