Humanity is the best example of Bipolar disorder on a mass level. The most complicated, brain developed, and genius creature yet the most psychotic.
Since there have been records in history of humans, there have been wars, destruction, an urge to prove how powerful we are by wiping out human life, wildlife, monuments, and simply try to show off who cam more easily make our breed and planet disappear forever. It's a demonic desire to reach self-extinction on one side.
On the other side there are desperate over-developed brain creature (unbelievably still human), who are spending their lives trying to figure out how to save us. Researching against cancer, genetic diseases, Alzheimer, HIV, heart disease, and any other issue which afflicts the well being of humans and animals too. They have come as far as successfully cloning, experimenting on stem cells to aim at repairing our sick organs. They now have artificially produced even sperm in a lab. If this is not the sign of the human fear to fight against extinction, then I really I have no other explanation.
What amuses me is that the Chinese philosophy of the Yin Yang couldn't be more accurate than this. It proves we constantly are in a vortex of opposing forces. Is this what keeps an equilibrium? Then why does it feel so out of whack by the extreme differences? Good and Evil, Love and Hate, we all experience it on an individual level in our daily routines too. As individuals we are all different, some experience it on a milder level and others on a more acute stage such as Bipolar disorder. This is why on a mass global perspective I view humanity as the symbol of Bipolarity. In all eras we have had super-geniuses, kings of destruction, advocates of imbecility and radiant enlightened beings. Oddly we are all human... but at times I have my serious doubts about it.
