High levels of the 'aggression' drive can be adaptive for self-defense but can also be accessed without clear indication of preservation of life or safety.

“Sure. As aggressive drives get higher, which you see why they're in us, because let's say we're defending ourselves, or you're defending a family member or like an entire family. Then it makes sense to have high levels of aggression if your family is threatened. So those drives are in us at potentially those high levels for a reason. But we certainly access very high levels of aggression without the indication of preservation of life or preservation of safety.”
