RE: Reconciling Individualism and Social Justice

in #culture8 years ago

A good piece of work. I still trying to wrap my head around the SJW core ideas. My approach has always been philosophical, or, from philosophy. Parsing definitions in an attempt to reach the premise at the core. I see myself as an individualist by the way. I have always been troubled, ​though, by the seeming contradiction of individualism. How can a human claim to be an individual when it is plainly obvious we are a social species? Does being a social species negate the possibility of describing oneself as an individual? Isn't the goal of being human to achieve independence from all the things?Am I asking the right questions in the right way?

Focusing on your last questions, in my clumsy way; I'm certain only that defining your thoughts as right or wrong - would be wrong.

Look forward to more of your thoughts.

Cheers
