Everyone is selfish, in one form or another, at some point in time with respect to something.
I don't believe there has ever been a person who lived who wasn't selfish. (Perhaps Jesus if all was as recounted by the bible? - So one person out of all of humanity? That's a huge exception.)
In my mind there is no differentiation of being a little selfish, a lot selfish, selfish in a superficial manner or seriously selfish. To me, it all selfishness. So, if that is my label, I embrace it, I accept it and I AM A SELFISH person at this point in time with respect to this particular topic and situation.
Having established that, it's a cruel world that marches on regardless of any one particular person's plight. I have watched the world march on during and after many events of personal hardship both personal and non personal, but known to me. The world simply stops for no one.
Natural selection, survival of the fittest etc ... this is what I believe in. I may die, you may die, but as long as the species survives, it is an overall victory for us a a group, as a civilization.
The Europeans came to The Americas and exposed indigenous people to a multitude of maladies. I am sure many great people with whole lives ahead of them perished, never to realize their potential. It's sad, but the end result was an overall improvement in the surviving part of the population that re calibrated their immune systems such that repopulation occurred over time.
That is one example of the process at work in nature.
Personally, I don't care if you live or die. You mean nothing to me. (FTR - I don't dislike you, so I would prefer you to live as you have never wronged me.) But either way, I would rather be free to make my own choice for what I want and don't want for myself and my body. Same as you should have the same right to choose. The problem is when we each choose for the other. AND, THAT IS MY FUNDAMENTAL DISAGREEMENT with this whole mess. I don't want to be told what to do anymore than I want to do the same to someone else.
Perhaps my point of view simply isn't valid with the level of population the planet is supporting? I simply don't know?
I don't care, if after reading my reply you think good of me or bad. The only thing I care about is making my reply and making myself clear.
