I still to this day don’t understand the point that book served. I don’t know if it was just a product of its time but I don’t think a bunch of children would behave like that in the event of being stranded

I sort of hated some books like that also. Anyway, I think it was more meant to be an allegory about society than a realistic tale of something that might actually happen.
Maybe I’m just built different but if society collapsed or something I wouldn’t do whatever that was
I hope you never face those circumstances. However, you can’t say you won’t do something until choices could be a matter of life or death.
There are a lot of discussions about society collapse in the not to distant future due to climate change effects on availability of water & food.
I truly hope humanity can use enough new resources and much better management of the continued insane levels of damage to prevent the worst case scenarios.
That’s the thing… it’s not really about society collapsing or being stranded on an island. It’s about human nature and how people set up societies.
You have no idea what you’d do when you’re a day away from starvation for weeks at a time.
Unless you’ve been there, in which case, ignore me.
