#Individualism

Het postmodernisme bracht ons niks dan ellende: waarheidsrelativering, cultuur- en genderrelativisme, post truth waanzin, nihilisme, verlies aan zingeving, hyper individualisme, ondermijning van westers zelfbewustzijn, geflirt met destructieve anti-westerse, anti-kapitalistische en totalitaire stromingen en uiteindelijk bracht het woke voort: het gif van deze tijd: #postmodernisme #woke #nihilisme

The aging of the Spanish population is giving way to a more individualistic generation, driven by residential instability and the fear fostered by the security industry, which highlights the need to restore trust and community through old forms of neighborhood. (translated)

De la vecindad antigua a las alarmas en la puerta: "La confianza es la base del bienestar"

The Psychology of the Modern Leftist Once you understand the psychology of the modern leftist, the last decade of the woke revolution makes more sense. The endless outrage, hypersensitivity, and rejection of rational debate may reflect something deeper than ideology: a crisis of self-worth expressed as a moral crusade. “Leftist” is a broad term, but here it refers to socialists, collectivists, LGBTQ activists, and similar movements. What unites them may be more than politics; it may also be a psychological orientation. Modern leftism can be associated with feelings of inferiority, low self-esteem, powerlessness, guilt, self-hatred, and resentment. These feelings may be repressed while still influencing behavior. The hypersensitivity to language illustrates this. Words once used without negative intent can become symbols of oppression through activist campaigns. Ironically, those most offended are sometimes privileged academics rather than the minorities they claim to defend. Many leftists identify with groups perceived as weak or disadvantaged. This may reflect genuine compassion, but it can also involve projecting personal feelings of weakness onto others. Strength, success, competition, and rationality can consequently become objects of suspicion. Western civilization, America, and other symbols of power may be treated similarly. The criticism can also be inconsistent. Flaws condemned in Western societies may be excused when found in socialist regimes or traditional cultures. This suggests that resentment may sometimes play a role alongside genuine moral concerns. Self-reliance, personal responsibility, and merit are often viewed skeptically, while collectivism is favored. Objective truth can also become threatening because it creates distinctions: some arguments are better than others, and some people succeed while others fail. When equality of outcome becomes the moral standard, truth, merit, and individualism may be attacked—not necessarily to uplift the oppressed, but to reduce psychological discomfort. When victimhood becomes central to identity, problems may no longer simply be discovered; they can become necessary to sustain that identity.

Wie schlicht, naiv, eindimensional, untertänigst, gutgläubig, unkritisch, obrigkeitshörig und willenlos kann jemand sein; wie wenig Skepsis, Lebenserfahrung, politisches Verständnis, Ehrgefühl, Individualismus, Eigenverantwortlichkeit und Würde muss jemand mitbringen, um zu glauben, die Zuckersteuer sei Fürsorge des Staates für seine Bürger und dieses auch noch gutheißt? #Zuckersteuer #Politik #Gesellschaft

85% av muslimska väljare röstar rödgrönt. S ensamt tar 61,6%. M, KD & L får sammanlagt endast 3,8%. Islam och socialdemokrati är två kollektivistiska ideologier. Individualism, eget ansvar och frihet att ifrågasätta är hotet i båda systemen. Så klart hamnar man i samma båt. https://t.co/9yViFrx6pN #politik #val2023 #ideologi

Artiklis hoiatab Märt Meesak Eesti väike-hiinastumise suuna eest, rõhutades, et meie süsteem muutub sarnaseks KGB-le, kus riigikapitalismi ja nähtamatu kontrolli tõttu ohustatakse individualismi ja vabadusi. #riigikapitalism #Eesti #ideoloogia

Team brilliance won over dazzling individualism to secure the World Cup for Spain. Functioning, wholesome multiculturalism also got a share of the glory. Football overcame, only just, the rabid commodification and the corporate shenanigans that almost killed its spirit. Food for #WorldCup #Spain #Football #ES

El Mundial vuelve a demostrar que los españoles funcionamos bien en el colectivismo y el gregarismo, solo respondiendo ante Dios y guiados por un líder. El individualismo anglo, inferido por cipayos como Ayuso, nos destruye y languidece, nos empeora como individuos y como grupo #Mundial #Colectivismo #Individualismo

Článek reflektuje na čtvrtletí století existence Ameriky, zdůrazňuje rozdílné vnímání Ameriky a Evropy, zejména v kontextu ideálů individualismu versus kolektivního štěstí, a zpochybňuje trvalost a pravdivost atlantického spojenectví, které bylo původně založeno na společných hodnotách, jež se mohou lišit v závislosti na historických a sociálních podmínkách. #Amerika #americkýsen #čtvrtletí

Amerika je víc idea než země. Zhrzenou lásku si musí Evropa vyřešit sama

The veil, which is imposed on Muslim women around the world, is in conflict with several of the ideals that define Swedishness; individualism, emancipation, secularism. This does not mean that a ban like the one proposed by the SD is reasonable in itself, far from it. (translated)
