Everyone loves their individuality yet no individual matters in the whole. People are not in this world to help the societal group they live in, they are in this world to exploit their individuality until they reach a point where they are looking down the societal group. You are here to be better than your neighbor you just mask your individuality with different traits that you learned just to reach your individual goal.

Everyone loves their individuality but we fail to see that we aren’t free thinking individuals. Your individuality depends on others and the environment.

You lost your individuality the moment you gain consciousness.

Josiah Royce said the moral purpose of society is to create and foster strong individuals and at the same time, the moral purpose of individuals is to create a strong society. We are sadly getting worse all the time on both sides.
