  I value the good of the collective over the good of the individual though

  The collective is made up of individuals.

  Also I’m not American so my opinion doesn’t matter

  Your opinion matters, however small it might be, and is probably better than that of many Americans.

  The rights of individuals is more important than any nation.

    This doesn’t negate the fact that I value the good of the collective over the good of an individual. Individualism is what led to civilization which is what led to the destruction of our planet and our separation from it. Individualism is the cancer that must be eradicated.

    The rights of individuals is more important than any nation.

    To me this is like saying “dog poop tastes better than cat poop.” Nations should not exist and individualism should not exist.

    Now just to be clear, I am a huge fan of individuality, just not individualism.
