Putting the individual above the collective is a very simplistic, and quite inaccurate, summation of my morality. My morality is that I can't use violence in an aggressive manner, only defensive - this is often described as the non-aggression principle or "NAP".
You might be fine with the idea that as long as the majority agree, we can delegate aggression upon the minority via a central governing body; but I am not.
I also hope (and suspect) most people subscribe to the idea you can't initiate coercive force against others - however we've for some reason agreed you magically can as long as we vote about it. I'll never understand that... It seems like a logical disconnect to me... Maybe I am weird... idk.
