It can spawn both Molochian dynamics and the cooperation to beat them, the latter tends to win.
The biological equivalent of Moloch is the propensity for cancer that all organisms-made-of-organisms have. The """humanist""" """rationalist""" dream of sacrificing the future for endless masturbation is a closer example of it than the innocent process they hate so much.
No more moronic idolatrous memes plz.

Isn't that true of most Molochian systems?

What do you mean by "win"?

People doing things that are strictly suboptimal for everyone involved because coordination is hard. Cooperation typically happens when reciprocation is reliable enough that it's a sensible selfish decision.
Positional goods are highly susceptible to that, and evolution is full of positional dynamics.

I'm kind of surprised this wasn't a screamer.

But prioritizing that over poetry and flowers IS Moloch.

Correct. Evolution is Shub-Niggurath. Moloch is what happens when evolution produces agents that can coordinate, but does not provide them with sufficient grounding on what to coordinate about.

No, that (unlike Moloch) is inevitable. Fortunately, flowers and poetry are tools of survival, there are always tools and their fetishization, like organics.
