story 1 in a nutshell: if we don't like you, we probably aren't going to do what you ask unless we have to. if we have to do what you ask we will follow it to such a degree that it will become a major source of annoyances for you. in other words we can manifest spite as extreme disobedience or absolute obedience, so just pick your poison.

Yeah, it certainly explains why I get the heebies and my trigger finger itches, whenever I am around communists.

For everyone in the comments: The uncanny valley evolved to avoid diseased people and corpses, the idea that we evolved it because of "human shaped predators" is some internet meme.
It could also be that one of the other members of the Homo genus in the distant past was similar to us but not quite the same AND was a huge threat to us(perhaps they ate us the way some great apes occasionally eat smaller monkeys) and the aversion to things that are similar to us to the same degree as those hominids were became part of the genetic memory of the species. It's also possible that it developed as a defense mechanism against psychopaths, sociopaths, and schizophrenics who's behavior and mannerisms wouldn't be quite right even though they were human in appearance and who could be quite dangerous in a world where mental health care isn't available to them. Or I think most likely the combination of diseased people, mentally ill people, and the existence of a dozen other similar but different hominids at the same time as us in our early history all combined to produce the highly calibrated uncanny valley which I believe the same mechanism is also responsible for why some people can just rub you the wrong way for no reason that you can explain and you look at them and despite never really interacting with them or knowing them and despite them not being particularly ugly or attractive think "I hate their face" or "I don't know what it is about them but I just can't stand them."

That's the skinwalker or fey mythos,no? Probably,early humans had an autist or aspie in their ranks,& misinterpreted it as a shapeshifter.

But it's not impossible, although it is improbable. Many millennia ago, the universe was a lot smaller.

The thing is, modern humans are tought to be about 400 000 years old. Millions of years ago does not compute in that equation.
We were ape-like back then. The first genus homo was around 2.5-3 million years old.
Homo sapiens was 300k. Modern human was 100-200k.
