Selfishness

My life can be about whatever I want it to be about and if I have a right to be compensated for the property others take then (Which I do) then there is no reason for me not exercise that right.
Hym "Jordan, you just want me to fail because I suceeded to spite you. My life doesn't need to be about anything. Selfishness is one of the many higher order abstractions you're using to deny me my rights. You are a charlatan. You are visibly and actively co-opting the practice of psychology and the church for your own ends and colluding with American politicians to do so."

selfish-care

The belief that self improvement happens in a vacuum or begins and ends with oneself. As the opposite of collective care, selfish care symbolizes the hyper fixation of today's western society on individual efforts in regards to self improving and self care. Those individual efforts are often tied to capitalism and the self care industry, as well as colonialism.

iLiana Fokianaki explains in 'The Bureau of Care: Introductory Notes on the Care-less and Care-full':

"While depriving citizens of care, NAS narcissistic authoritarian statism nonetheless capitalizes on the individualist notion of care, widely promoted as “self-care” through an industry with billions in revenues. By ... taking care of oneself, contemporary subjectivities ... are tasked with the care of their overworked bodies, but are less and less interested in the well-being of bodies that are outside of the immediate realm of their family, class, workplace, city, country, and continent. They are further burdened with individual responsibility for their own care, since care has lost its character as a human right and has become a paid service. ".

Selfish care is the accumulation of influences from NAS on individual's belief systems about the notions of care. It represents the indoctrination of the capitalistic evolution of the care system, expressed through the associations with self care that tie it to a profit-driven industry.
"I can't come tonight, I need to do some face-masks and watch Netflix."

" Oh, so you're doing selfish-care tonight henny"

"I'm gonna treat myself. F*ck it, selfish-care"
