“The antipode of individualism is collectivism, which subordinates the individual to the group — be it the ‘community,’ the tribe, the race, the proletariat, etc. A person’s moral worth is judged by how much he sacrifices himself to the group. [Under collectivism] the more emergencies (and victims) the better, because they provide more opportunity for ‘virtue’.” Glenn Woiceshyn, Canadian writer.
