What's your wildest fantasy
I want to date a Nepali or North-Eastern femboy, and as we grow older together, we eventually get married. He marries a cute /nep/ pyaari and I marry a cute muslimah pyaari. One day we swap our wives and have a wholesome foursome. Happy ending.

Every emotion, chemical reaction in your brain, neural trauma processing and dreams processing, from lowest tweaks to intense changes, everything is a survival mechanism man. So, yea it's an evolutionary thing

Not necessarily.
Many of it is random mutations that didnt reduce fitness enough to be weeded out (dysgenics) or just random inconsequential mutations

Yeah, none of it is random man, anything not worth survival is not discarded, but it does exist, like an old tv. It just lingers. Not that, it is of use for survival but because there's no incentive to discard it. So it's not random at all, it exists because it served some purpose in the past

Mutation is literally random
Natural selection is just due to random mutations being weeded out because they reduce fitness

But not all negative/useless genes necessarily reduce fitness enough to be weeded out

But i do think, depression would have been 100% weeded out. I mean, how is the weak man with no motivations and no desires to live going to survive? But yet he survives, and also he has passed on generations with that specific mutation. One would think, it would have been weeded out by now but it didn't. And why is that? Because turns out it did serve a purpose in survival. Also, these mutations are never discarded, they maybe weeded out, but they aren't discarded for those that made "just enough" for survival. Evolution doesn't bother to remove them, but i do think depression is a survival mechanism , that make humans who take no risks. Because if you don't take any risks, your chances of survival are pretty good
