This kind of answer shows why covid is hitting so hard in america. "I do whatever I want, you do whatever you want" it's not about the individual, what he want

it's not about the individual, what he wants or do. It's about this individual spreading the virus to the community later on.
- slumpt_ 6y agoIt makes me sad seeing a community I’d otherwise regard as intelligent being so profoundly ignorant. But I also acknowledge this is a western culture issue more than one of intelligence alone. Discouraging nonetheless. We’ve really messed up.
- SpicyLemonZest 6y agoIt seems terribly unfair to call it profound ignorance. As you say, it's a values difference. If you remember learning about "individualism", that's what it means; it's the idea that the collective doesn't have unbounded authority to tell individuals what to do.
- Chris2048 6y ago> It makes me sad seeing a community I’d otherwise regard as intelligent being so profoundly ignorant I feel the same about religion, so AFAIK this has always been so - move along, nothing to see here. Except religion has been around long enough to excuse itself from the obvious, or a least to bare its fangs at anyone thinking of commenting on the emperor's new clothes..
