Do you use the second person with the intention of not including yourself in that group?
If so, I’m interested in what you believe distinguishes your group from the group you’re addressing.
I’m a useless social retard, and thus am no longer receiving signals that I’m just-barely-making-it. I am instead receiving I’m-fucked-and-need-to-self-terminate-for-the-sake-of-the-pack signals.

Um, no you’re not? This is the theory of Group Selectionism. There is no chemical signal that your brain will naturally produce corresponding to “suicide for the good of the pack”. You can arrive at that idea through other means, but there is almost certainly no low-level chemical signal which corresponds to suicide for the good of the group; everyone who might’ve passed that gene on to you died out for the sake of the people that didn’t have it.

If the pack contains blood relatives, yes it can. See Kin Selection.
