Same here; the reliable ones I could count on one hand. And, as much as I think overpopulation is a factor, back in history has just as much, if not more, violence. During the Dark Ages, violence was an everyday thing. Can humans ever maintain a peaceful society? No I doubt humans will be peaceful. We need a universal enemy. It's not over population so much as changing how we live with others, We used to have a small group that you knew personally, now we have a much larger group that some of who I have never met in real life, and if I disagree with them I can de-friend them. Reality does not work like that and I think that social media in particular is setting us up for having issues around that. Social media as a factor; interesting concept, and I have a friend that would not only agree that it is a factor, she would say it is the only factor. WHY do humans need a universal enemy? What makes us different from other species who kill only for survival? Are our brains just not big enough? Or are they too big?
