Sure, but the interesting part is that we like to think such animalistic traits are beneath us. We're not rational creatures, we're just ordinary creatures that happen to be capable of ratio sometimes.
A lot of the social discussions we are currently having in tech likes to portray humans as entirely rational and intentional when in fact the problems we're trying to solve are engrained in our biology, not part of our culture. Doesn't mean we can't (or shouldn't) work around them but it means you need to do more than just pin all the problems on the majority and assume that once the power dynamics shift the problems will go away.
