Everytime I here individualism brought up by someone from Hexbear or Lemmygrad, it gets talked about as if it’s categorically bad and wrong. Why is that?

This goes against everything I’ve learned in the states, where we consider individualism a necessary part of being a responsible and moral person, whereas collectivism strips us of our humanity and turns us into subhuman insectoid creatures incapable of thought.

    ooooooh this is a reallly really fucking good explainer, I might have to adapt some of the language a bit but this is exactly what I needed for a friend of mine who keeps agreeing with me on practically everything and I keep just being like “bro you are a communist you just don’t realize it”

    Wish Roderic Day wasn’t such a combative asshat sometimes, I genuinely like a lot of his stuff.
