I was stating that my own "youth leftist thing" wasn't necessarily self-interest unless you want to boil down the desire to help others and see them be well as neurochemically-driven "selfishness" or whatever.

And I'd believe you, I don't think nobody helps others out of the good of their heart or whatever. Those people exist, loads of them are here.

I'm saying, when you get into generational views, it might not hold up for a large amount for them.

As a numbers game, you're right, it doesn't.

My biological family is staggeringly loaded with chuds to the point that I moved to the opposite coast in part just to escape them.

Mine too. But they're old and need help, even though they don't see it that way. So I help them then get sick of them. Rinse repeat.

I did that for decades of my life, but those chuds are on their own now. I'm raising a family of my own as far as I can be from their influence now. curry-space
