That's still bullshit made up to make yourself feel better about it. What other people do is completly irrelevent to what you do. At the end of the day you could be saving peoples lives and you aren't... and unlike this guy. It's out of selfishness. Rather then a mistake in doing the wrong thing that you think is the right thing. Everyone acts out of selfishness, some people in fact more then others. However that doesn't make any amount of selfishness right. |
This is a core-argument that far too seldom is brought up in political debates about taxes and sharing of wealth for example.
It's all a big illusion that most people live in. It really pisses me off that people aren't even aware of the fact that the vast majority are selfish - and that it's in fact natural to be selfish.
Therefore we get many twisted and hypcritical debates about taxes, wellfare, immigration and whatnot, usually with people who've put themselves on moral high horses demanding that others should be un-selfish and share their wealth or make some other kind of sacrifice.
