In evolutionary theory this is called 'natural selection'.

Social Darwinism is an evil, vile bastardization of evolutionary theory for ideological purposes and betrays a complete lack of understanding how how natural selection actually works. Some species are social, altruistic, and cooperative because natural selection caused them to be so.

You people are fucking sick. Go to Hell.

There was nothing social about my Darwinism.  That being said when it comes to humans they have only a limited capacity for actually caring for other humans.  Typically this is limited to their family and their tribe.  All others are strangers and are at best easily ignored and at worst are enemies.

The fact is humans evolved for a Stone Age.  This whole civilization thing is still rather new, being only 6000 years old.

Also just because you are pathologically altruistic doesn't mean everyone else is.  One of the reasons why diversity is not a strength but a weakness.  You might want to look into the Putnam Hypothesis.
