you do you, my friend
Fair enough, I am interested to hear your point of view though
take advantage of others is in our very nature...
Acquaintance*
I dont take advantage of others
compared to Aristotle's more individualist beliefs
My evidence is my commission checks at at&t when i was a salesperson
@AiarUther Well, do you want to live in an Anarcho-capitalist society? Or do you want borders? Because borders define a 'collective' of *something* even if it's super inconsequential
Collectivism and Individualism aren't binary
Just because you are individualist doesn't mean you have to be an anarchist
@Deleted User It's time to clean the floors.
False dichotomy
Alert!
@Silver Shield His point was, that if you live in a nation, you're still in a 'collective' of sorts. There's a layer of society that is more important than yourself
And those are children and the gays
@Silver Shield I think you do, to be honest
@Fitzydog I think though that if there is any interraction, it has to be as volunatary as possible.
Think of the most minarchist America imaginable: It's still a 'collective' of Americans who value border security
In regards to voluntary choices
The idea of individualism is that the emphasis is on the rights of the individual. It doesn't necessitate that you can't be part of a group, just that the group's importance is less than the individual's.
Consent prevents rape 100% of the time
Exactly
This guy gets it
@Silver Shield Of course not, but if you're not part of a group, then you're in a stateless society
just look at my avatar
so trustworthy
well there would still be organisations in a stateless society.
Looks like Willem Dafoe and Gordon Freeman had a baby
You know I wonder if delta city from robocop wouldn't have been a better outcome?
@AiarUther If I lived in unincorporated Alaska with no state, and provided everything for myself, then yes, I'm finally an 'individualist'
