What discourse? The user is promoting some thought-terminating capitalist ideology cliche of "rational individual man" and "every man for himself".

All it does is decreases solidarity while the use there thinks of himself as some smarmy economist intellectual who knows all about human nature.

Yeah fuck rational logic, really overrated.

Just because someone declares it rational, it doesn't mean that it is rational.

Everyone is trying to get as much as they can for as little as possible

That's literally as rational as it gets.

Thanks for being yet another total fucking asshole on Lemmy. This place is by far the most toxic shithole I've ever been on the internet. You're like the tenth person I'm blocking now. Incredible.

It's not rational, bud, it's short-term interest. In the long-term we're fucked because of it.

Toxic shithole? You're the one promoting sociopathy.
