OT: Individualism vs. Collectivism

[Arraya]

A human being is a part of a whole, called by us _universe_, a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feelings as something separated from the rest… a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest to us. Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty.”-Einstein

Go off by yourself into the wilderness and see how long you survive without any help from others. That will tell you nature’s (or God’s, if you’re religious) opinion on whether humans are meant to exist as individuals or as part of a collective unit. As I recall, someone tried this not too long ago and discovered the answer.

If you want to survive you dont’ go out into the wilderness alone expecting the wilderness patrol to come air lift you out of there.

Collectivism has been tried by the Soviet Union and was proved to not work.

Humans are individuals not sheep.
