Guys, at this rate I don't think the revolution's going to happen anytime soon.

You seem to have an entirely separate definition of what egotistical altruism means from how most other people understand the concept. In its simplest form it's just doing good unto others so they can live more productive better lives as more of their needs are met by community support.

Ok, that definition does not define how people acted during the pandemic either. Some people were even actively harming others.

Brother you seem lost I'm saying that's how people should act if they want to have a positive impact on their society

And I'm saying people don't act like that via the example of the pandemic. I understand the definition but think it's unrealistic to expect people to act like that. Does that make sense to you? From this end it seems like you're the lost one so I'm not quite sure how to clarify what I've said.
