The bulk of social insects, including ants, are of the order hymenoptera. This order has a unique method of sex determination.

Among the hymenopterans, sex is determined by the number of chromosomes an individual possesses. Fertilized eggs get two sets of chromosomes (one from each parent's respective gametes), and so develop into diploid females, while unfertilized eggs only contain one set (from the mother), and so develop into haploid males; the act of fertilization is under the voluntary control of the egg-laying female. This phenomenon is called haplodiploidy.

One consequence of haplodiploidy is that females on average actually have more genes in common with their sisters than they do with their own daughters. Because of this, cooperation among kindred females may be unusually advantageous, and has been hypothesized to contribute to the multiple origins of eusociality within this order.

Humans, and mammals in general, do not possess eusociality, which would be a required hereditary trait for socialism to succeed as a political system. The collectivists conveniently forget this fact and killed tens of millions attempting to enforce eusociality upon a species for which it is genetically unsuitable. Now this stupidity of collectivism arises again in Venezuela and will suffer the same fate as it has elsewhere.
