It’s not genetics that makes people selfish. The genes for cooperation exist universally. Competition has a cultural origin. For example, antisocial personality disorder, in which a person lacks the usual behaviours of community building, is caused by child abuse. On a larger scale, competitive behaviour is usually caused by capitalism.

The rest of us allow them to exist and breed and it will be the end of our species eventually.
