And what will be done? Everyone in a position to do something is his toady or doing the same thing. This is the end game of individualism and capitalism.
I don't think individualism is bad per se. I'm very left but individualist. It just means I'm not bound to groupthink. I have my own opinions and i temporarily align with political parties but never have unquestioning loyalty to any party or country. If anything that unquestioning loyalty is a hallmark of fascism and not very individualistic. The extreme right is a group cult and people who speak against the group narrative are exiled immediately.
I'm from Holland so being left is a lot more left than in the US. Yet I can still speak my mind at political meetings even if it's against the group opinion.
They do exhibit some individualistic properties but more as a group. But inside the group the forced groupthink is extremely strong.
And individualism isn't just about what's good for a person. I'm individualist but I still care about the environment as it's important to me and the people i care about.
Nothing as long as we set the bar as low as possible and refuse outrage because its distasteful.
