Individualism and High trust societies

We all know the effects of hyper individualism, but what about too much collectivism? You get Southern Italy, a place with little social trust. Atomized society, This is also common throughout the Middle East as trust ends in the extended family.

I was always taught not to be a fool for anyone and to exploit weakness wherever I found it, this can work as an individual in a working society but when your attitude is like this on a societal level, of course no one pays taxes and cheats the sheets

nigger mentality

This is different from NorthWestern Europe descended from the Western Hunter Gatherers and the Indo Europeans. I recommend Kevin MacDonald to understand this low trust vs high trust gradient and the WHG/ IE. youtu.be/rWWfPWdbPC8

but the main point is that,yes, too much individualism can be bad, but a moderatly individualistic culture is what gives us high trust and high functioning societies.

Which one..

Sweden, Spain, and Croatia are very safe countries with low crime rates. Trust means something else in this context.

It was a cynical mentality that applied even within the family, the worst part is that it perpetuates itself cause the only way to fight it is to either double down or become that holy fool that everyone takes advantage of. The way to solve this has not yet been identified

>germany, a country where coworkers report their colleagues, were neighbhors call the police on their neighbhors, and where children report their parents to the state for wrongthing, have a high rate of people saying "I absolutely trust people in my area"

The only reason to explain this I can see is that the germans are so paranoyed they were lying on an anonymous poll to look better by fear it would backfire on them if they didn't say they were completely trusting of everyone around them

Never trust a serb

It's ironic that Germans trust others, I would not trust a German or a Dane. They're sexual deviants and amoral. Northern Europe is a crazy place. It's more godless than North America.

Yup, I remember someone brough this up for the Greek euro crisis. Of course there were other factors, but in places like the Mediterranean and even more in MENA you're kind expected to finesse someone or you're a sucker/fool. Something similar with Black Americans.

>They're sexual deviants and amoral. Northern Europe is a crazy place. It's more godless than North America.
it's genetic

Hyper individualism is the only way the human spirit can thrive.

Honestly Dostoyevsky had it right, that novel where the guy goes to the garden of Eden, meets primal high-trust tribal humanity and accidentally corrupts them is what it all comes down to, how do you reverse the decadence and return to innocence and trust?

True. It's not needed for everyone however.

only a nigger would have to ask
God bless Finland

How can anyone trust random people? All I need is a sing walk around retards on the streets or how they shittalk everything behind the back to know that everyone else is effectively trying to fuck over everyone else.

Can guarantee all Russia (Ukie too :P) would be dark red

how? don't be delusional
there's like 0 genetic difference between Flanders and Wallonia

it's entirely cultural

It's about "clanishness" This was always much weaker in North Western Europe where the IE/WHG had weaker kinship, meaning less cousin marriages. But the Middle East was and is all about cousin marriages. People in low trust societies only trust their extended families/ the clan, and this obviously backfires. You won't have a proper meritocracy or judical system. Yes there is corruption everywhere, including NorthWestern Europe and Scandinavia, but it is way worse in the Mediterranean, Balkans, Middle East, Latam,etc. Just ask the people who live there. Ask a Southern Italian or an Arab what too much collectivism looks like

yeah, from my talks with my rusbros, probably. its kinda sad ngl, but then again im the green zone.

For now that is, as your country keeps on importing more engineers and rocket scientists

fuck man. does check out? More "clannishness" ?

you see bro, I try to be sympathetic towards you, and you try to agitate for no reason - this is the reason you are disliked. btw, no girl cums as hard as one that was forced to wear a hijab for 20 years. I will take a nigger neighbour over a russian, at least he can be tamed - you, however...

I don't get it, how can a collectivist society be classified as atomized? Is OP drunk?

kek, you gave him the benefit of the doubt. Typical of someone from a high trust society.

Collectivists societies are often centered around kinship and extended families, which make forming trusting communities harder. You should read about Southern Italy
