@Outsideness yes. but, once again, the open boders people are not sick, and you're misguiding your friends and leading to misunderstanding.
@PoisonAero yup. #IronyAlert (a strong, reciprocal altruism has in this case.) (@Outsideness see? now people are starting to understand!)

@hbdchick@Outsideness that makes it pathological. But it isn't "altruism" anyway. It is a signaling tragedy of the commons. -
@PoisonAero no, that doesn't make it pathological. reciprocal altruism is an adaptation, not something cause by disease.@Outsideness -
@hbdchick@PoisonAero It's an extinct adaptation. And I thought we'd already shelved the disease thing. (Is cancer not pathological?) -
@Outsideness we can't shelve the disease thing if you keep using the word pathological. (~_^) most cancers prolly are in part pathological. -
@hbdchick I agree that to talk about "altruism disease" would be misleading. (Though not in terms of the classical meaning of disease.) ... -
@hbdchick Pathological =/= diseased. See #2 definition: http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/pathology … -
@Outsideness what? "something abnormal"? again, the average behavioral traits of nw euros can't possibly be abnormal. they're normal.
