For the most part this is just “how to be an amoral dick”. I like how these Social Darwinists use natural selection as an excuse to break every law of civilization by exploiting everyone around them. This works great for the individual, but just because it works doesn’t mean that it’s RIGHT. Falling into this Machiavellian mind-set aligns you with CEOs and politicians and anyone else who’d see fit to put a thousand people out of a job to marginally improve profits.
You can be part of the problem or part of the solution. Just because your help won’t fix the problem, doesn’t make it OK for you to become part of the problem. As more and more taboos of social conduct are being broken, and as it becomes more and more IN FASHION to be selfish, we can’t help but notice how people are becoming less and less “civil” with each other. Anyone who has driven a car for the last fifteen years knows what I’m talking about.
This kind of behavior feeds off of the corpse of civilization and provides nothing in respect to the good of man. This “each man for himself” attitude isn’t some brilliant new concept. It is the natural state of mankind and all life. If we stayed like that we’d never have gotten beyond the caves. But instead, our ancestors decided that for our kind to meet it’s potential, we would have to work together. To go against our nature, and to help each other. And it took EONS for us to get this far. This primal selfishness is the reason it took so long. Look at these rules and try to identify the author as anything but a psychopath.
