I strongly feel that egoism or philosophical narcissism is the only appropriate reaction to the fundamental situation we all faceSociety as we know it is inherently oppressive and no one else will have our true interests or needs in mindAltruism is a lie, we are ultimately left to fight our own battlesTo participate in modern society, one must whore themselves out in order to acquire basic necessities To live in society is to lose dignity and self respectYou lose your entire identity as your whole purpose is accumulating and consumingCapitalism and marxism are both oppressive as they both need social coercion to thrive and (to varying lengths) require altruism as a fundamental principalNo one else will care about you and will likely advocate against your rights or safety if given the chanceAt least 95% of society wouldn't look twice if you were burning alive on the sidewalk This isn't to say you or I are the most important person in the world, but rather it is to say that for your own survival in the chaos that is life you should put yourself first
How much we don't matter is a scary thing.

>>18502717>the reaction to modern society being anti-human and atomized is being a selfish piece of shit libtardwhy is this every atheist's revelation? lol
>>18502824it's not like being selfless is going to change the global systemAt least when you're selfish you have your own interests accounted for instead of sacrificed for some pointless altruist goalThe real selfishness is those who comprise of society who think they are entitled to my labor, time, energy, money etc because we happen to live in the same borders and might be called a "community" I also am not an atheist and deeply believe a world beyond ours is ahead
