Its weird that i hear so called individuals

Make claims that selfishness and greed is "human nature ". If that was true then individualism wouldn't exist would it?

Aren't people who see themselves as individuals supposed to feel it is their nature to be selfish? Why wouldn't individualism exist in a world of selfish individuals? I am having trouble understanding why it is weird to you? No one else responding to your post makes sense either.

@sree251 of course. You make sense and no one else does...😷

@whowasthatmaskedman Seriously. Make a clear argument to explain your utterance. We are a nation of slogan shouting individuals. Are we programmed to say things? Can you explain what you said??

@sree251 Humans are individuals , so no two are alike. However, those who learned to cooperate and communicate did more to advance the species than those who didnt. In other mammals, those who are in the pack survive better than those alone..😷

@whowasthatmaskedman Of course. This is why China is going to pull ahead of the US.

@sree251 Yes. Centralised government creates one narrative and a single rule set, and off 1.4 Billion people go.😷.

@whowasthatmaskedman All governments are centralized: power at the center. It has nothing to do with the people. China's socialism is akin to that of an elephant herd.

@sree251 Agreed. But they are all charging in the same direction . Unlike the Tug of War paralysis in America..😷
