  1. Are we really a society of altruists? Sorry, but I just don't see it. People look after their own interests first here.

  2. ​ @man.inblack  We're not talking about disasters here though ( well unless you're talking about Neoliberalism ) we're talking politics and every day life. Look at the splits in this country with Brexit, the selfishness around it, the divides it's led to. The constantly blaming of other for your own problems. The political apathy. The generational divides. The culture wars. The online hate. I agree we've been listening to psychopaths but I also believe as a society we look out for our own interests way more than now than we have done in the past. I think we've lost the community spirit somewhere down the line too. I could go on really. I mean, I like your optimism though.

  3.  @parametr  You can't just suddenly decide to expropriate everything that's been privatised . What do think would happen here?
