You've been down voted but I agree with your position. Humans will prioritize their well-being over others survival; this is an unpleasant truth. I think everyone has a different threshold of what they will accept & rationalize, but at some point they will no longer shoulder personal hardship for the greater good. They will collapse their support to a sub-tribe, like country, community or family and choose "us" over "them", even though the differentiation is very recent.
- SethBraud 7y agoI think this is not true and lot of people are living out of moral superiority, fake altruism, based on the ego. They want to be a cultural hero by saying stuff that imply moral superiority and people with other opinions are evil! There are good reasons to be sceptical about locking down a complete economy, but everybody is afraid to speak out, because they know they will be destroyed by the moralists! The communists believed in altruism... they thought they were right and people around them evil. The human mind is corrupt. Some people simply live in a fantasy world. The christians, communists and fascists had 1 thing in common... they thought they were right and used the truths as a weapon against other people. Speaking about other people as "evil", is sometimes projection or an egoic illusion.
