Competition is just as innate in humans as cooperation is. We don’t need to venerate one over the other, let alone embrace an economic ideology that doesn’t even acknowledge the other.

Take sport as a case study. There are both elements at play and nobody questions the need for both.

Or take a less friendly example like academia, where competition is nothing but a hindrance.

Markets should be an obvious case too.

Happy to expound if you need me to.
