collective identity needs to be tmepered with individualism or you get the problem of china where they don't develop or invent their own technology and are dependent on stealing from other nations

No ideology sides maybe egoism is entirely individualist or collectivist

A meritocracy of separate collectivisms defined as "nations"

they all just have a lean

Pretty sure communism leans to collective

Communism is entirely collectivist

^^

Libertarianism is almost entirely individualist

^^

you could debate that

communism denies hiearchy is egalitarian it rejects the tribalist collectivism nations stem from

but it's very close to "I will do anything I want cause I can"

I'm not saying actual communism can ever be achieved; it cannot

Communism and Fascism are two different kinds of collectivism

but people are dumb enough to try it

Communism wants gender and racial equality and a denial of hiearchy

same goes for total individualism

while fascism wants a complete hiearchy

again, communism ideally is total collectivism

well, those it considers in its collective

Fascism is not, but it recognizes the importance of components involving collective effort

considering rich people in your own nation aren't part of the collective lmao

Fascism is based on the organic reality of a nation state and the reality of a class based meritocracy within such a collective. These collectives themselves are divided in the world, hence, multiple conflicting and independent nations.

and I think that's an accurate understanding of macro human social relations

agreed

Detriment. We'll lose our soul if we become machines.

That's quite a broad question

Transhumanism? More like autism

So broad

detriment, b/c it will become a slippery slope to losing our humanity

Are heart monitors transhumanist?

Are fitwatches transhumanist

Transhumanism as in things like genetic engineering, advanced prosthetics, nanomachines, etc

depends how we use it
