I'd describe the white race as twinless when all other races have twins. Now how can one twin live without the other the truth is that it can't twins are connected to one another for better or worse. There is no life without the other, don't you realise?
robplum: Religion is a form of collectivism, the blind leading the blind. Yesterday I read our an appeal had been lodged in relation to a woman convicted of strangling a pregnant woman, cutting her body open and kidnapping her baby is scheduled to be the first female inmate put to death by the U.S. government in more than six decades. However the execution is delayed because her lawyers have been unable to visit their client because of the flu...fair enough...
That a state will execute someone for being so crazy that she strangled a pregnant women then cut her body open so she could kidnap the unborn child it bigger's disbelief, that the state is somehow less insane than the very sick mind that strangled a pregnant women then cut her body open so she could kidnap the unborn child.
now watch your collectivism
Hi Rob,
Agree with regards to religion & collectivism and it's a perfect example imo.
The death penalty Am not sure there is a more callous and authoritarian act a govt can commit to one of its citizens.
And women globally adopt the appearance of white women for this same twinless one of a kind. Entrancement with her own uniqueness compels her to appear whiter.
Men it's more the case that women love a man in uniform. It's unmasculine to be a flower to be looked at and thats the problem with individualism. The vanity. Keep on reading Ayn Rand and youll never get a girlfriend; a complete lack of social skills does not mean you're superman

I agree, it is callous, its sad that scenario represents an extreme level of stupidity practiced in lots of places common demonstration of religion & collectivism that is sadly practiced in many forms.
To my mind in an attempt to offer some sought of understanding to others its my view that story displays a complete lack of understanding of the nature of interdependence's of our experiences good bad or indifferent, a clearly stupid outcome that proposes the judges are some how all knowing beings, beings with sun shining our there one end and pure evil pouring out the other, clearly they are quite stupid, ignorant, and foolish people in the extreme, driven by a gravy chain of callous insane lunatic full of it religious nutters.
People shouldn't be harshly judging the karma's of others, harshly judging the failings of our shared human society, no constructive activity directed towards the well being of all parties in identified wrongs in that example clearly represents a wide spread simplistic bias driven by the afflictions like and dislike, which is not limited to America rather its a worldwide completely ignorant, foolish and very stupid misunderstanding, that is clearly being promoted by ignorant religious bigots in all corners of our global community.
Individuality and collectivism....both are necessary to live and love as human beings on this planet, to foster and share our own gifts and ideas, and to graciously encourage others' gifts and ideas. Both should be fostered for us to move forward into a future that is only limited by our own ego.

I think It depends on the type of collectivism and if it is productive or destructive...I did state some of views on destructive collectivism...but could add to them a little later

Working together and individually is necessary in a family unit, friendship circle, community circle, usw.

usw=South County Dutch [= Deutsch]. Anyway collectivism is such a broad term it's not worth comment--no civilization without is. It's a spectrum like socialism. Both fall within the extremes of laissez faire capitalism (which becomes feudalism--literally, see teh fall of the Roman Empire and the beginning of the Dark Ages)--and Communism (the Party know what the people think and the majority should dictate). The majority should not dictate and the government governs best that governs least. The limits of that were being worked out till recently when it went too far. That kind of transgression is rarely fixed.

LeeCharming: I am very much an individual thinker and like to speak my mind about various different subjects... I never virtue signal and never fear discussing things...that others fear to discuss... I say it as I see it and it's no skin off my nose if the collectivists don't like it... I advocate thinking for yourselves...first and foremost...not being afraid to go against group think and standing for what you believe in
I see vast problems with lefist group think and the cult brainwashing of lemmings...I see it as destructive and unproductive...I see it as controlling and oppressive...I see it as a major threat to individual thinking and freedom...The way I see it...
Are you a collectivist? Do you fear going against group think? Do you speak your mind in opposition...or self censor? Do you want all to agree on everything? Are you opposed to collectivism? Do you advocate for individual thinking? Do you anyone ever learns anything...from group think? Do you think group think is anti productive?
