As you can see, I similarly struggled to communicate my ideas. Probably more than you did, however.
Two or maybe three years ago I suggested at a CFAR reunion that close-knit tribes / communities of humans, rather than individual humans, might be 1) alive / thinking in some important sense and 2) the natural unit of moral value
I am not sure that small groups of humans are complicated enough in their interactions to form a collective mind capable of thought.
It seems like tribe-centered moralities have a poor track record, but that obviously assumes a metric for evaluating moral success that you might dispute.
