Do you have any recommendations on how to combat this? Obviously, mixing with groups that reward behaviour you wish to cultivate would be a good first step, but what other steps can one take? Do you think making a concious effort to identify more/feel friendlier towards people whose behaviour you consider laudable would help? This would be a step much more readily made for most people than changing their actual social group.
Combat what, precisely? Being human? ;-)
(Honestly, though, I'm not clear from your questions what it is that you're trying to accomplish.)
