RE: George Price vs Ayn Rand 🧠A Reasoning On Altruism 🤔

Great post. Tragic in a way. Is altruism possible? Altruism has so many definitions and forms that depending which definition one uses it is possible or it is not. Maybe the two authors show that in their work. What I definitely believe is that you can be altruistic towards anything that you love. Your own genetic kind or not. Maybe that is the only connecting base for true altruism. Love. Everything else is altruistic or not depending on the definition. It is for sure a term that is often misused for egoistic purposes. A tragic twist by definition, was the word altruism introduced as the counterpart to egoism.

It's true, it's meaning can be very subjective, but on some level I think a small portion of human beings are altruistic on a very deep level. However, I Ayn Rand was a pretty heartless witch who believed selfishness, greed, and hedonism were better drivers of society. !ENGAGE 60
ENGAGEtoday.Agreed.
Words of someone who never really suffered from anything or felt compassion. Unfortunately those people attract so many other lost souls, falling in the trap of believing this is the way to go.
But in the end her scheme made our world, sucks big times, but maybe the era will end one day...I hope...
