"I think people should do what is best for the common good." - Whose common good?
"In my opinion western society has become a little too individualistic. Too much focus on the self can make people selfish."
Fucking idiot. Individualism is the antidote to the collective nonsense you are espousing. When you protect the rights and value of the individual, you naturally defeat the problems that arrive from tribal collectivism.
Western society is best society
GG @Deleted User, you just advanced to level 4!
What you are actually whining about, is your inability to climb the dominance hierarchy because of your incompetence.
See even the bot agrees

I never said individualism is bad
I think if their is too much of it then its a problem.
People who put too much emphasis on their own personal needs without taking into consideration the needs of others are selfish.
Also there is no need to be disrespectful @The Dank Lord calling people idiots doesnt help your argument and its uncivil.
If everyone was cocerned about their own needs that creates sectionallism which leads to division.
And division can lead to chaos.
The civil war is the greatest example of that. It wasn't just a war caused by slavery but their were other factors to consider. The south cared about its economy (dependent on slaves) and the north cared about its ideals without taking into consideration the effects it would have on the rest of the country.
Also the common good means something that benefits most members of a community (general@ public). @Deleted User ironic how you say western society but disagree with my argument on the importance of the common good over individualism. The u.s. a western society and many European societies were founded and influenced by the enlightenment that brought you these ideas such as the common good.
GG @πͺππππππ πͺπππππ ππ, you just advanced to level 2!
I never said I want a communistic or highly collectivist society I just believe the west is becoming a little too selfish and sometimes arrogant. And your refusal to be open to your opinions and your rude behavior @The Dank Lord hurts your moral high ground. I do not hate the west in fact I live in the west. I just like to think for myself and I have my own opinions on the world that are based on reason and some analysis of history.
I just said western society is best society and left
I wasnβt disagreeing with your argument or anything hell I donβt even know what your argument is i literally said that and left
Sorry @Deleted User Its a llittle harder to understand what peoplel mean
with text we dont have tone, facial expressions and body language to better interpret what people mean
Itβs understandable
my argument earlier was against extreme individualism
basically I think too much focus on one's self leads to selfishness and problems
I tied this into the u.s. civil war
The us civil war was about slavery
where both sides focused on their own goals instead of national unity and considering thein interests of their neighbors
Nothing else like leftists will try to make you believe
Yes the civil war was about slavery but other factors played a role
No just the need for slavery
Again sometimes the left is right.
Iβm not saying the left is always wrong
Iβm saying they are wrong then
im not saying you are
also the reason why the south sllavery was economics
they made them money
True
some of it was ideological
but as i stated earllier
