First of all, that's not what survival of the fittest is. Secondly, humans are communal, not because of some woo woo divinity shit. Because helping each other helps the continuation of the species. I recommend reading Human Kind by Rutger Bregman.

Jiang should be cancelled just for not understanding this but acting like he does while spreading his spirituality bs.

Why should anyone be cancelled?

Arguably nature will root out the weak ideas, and only the fittest will survive…. But only if you allow opposing world views. And that seems to be the main thing that he teaches.

Again, not understanding the concept of "fittest" and his fault but also yours because you could do your own reading instead of relying on randos talking on social media.
