I know what he's trying to say, but isn't this an argument for socialism too? I am a selfish mother fucker, and I selfishly choose to have children and teach them to do the same. #[0]

Yeah .. I think there's a lot to unpack there. Although he seems to be tackling the point of view of an absolute, self centered, hedonistic person. Not necessarily the qualities I would attribute to a socialist, and definitely not making the arguement in favour of socialism.

Personally, I like to mix it up with a little of Rand's selfishness, a bit of Chomsky's truth to power, and top it off with some of Camus's absurdity .. I find it goes down a treat 🤙🏼

Agree. Just the first sentence was confused. Selfishness is moral.
