Collectivism

The opposite of individualism. The belief or socio-economic policy which states that the interests of the collective outweigh the interests of the individual and that the individual exists solely to serve the collective. Under collectivism the individual is subordinate to the collective.

Utilitarianism, Communism, and to some extent all statist philosophies practice collectivism.

Collectivist

Someone who believes the group to be superior to any one individual. Blindly following a mantra without much thought and at the cost of your own personal reality.

Q:"Are you going to make a choice?"
A: "I don't know, what would so and so X do in this situation?"
Response:"Don't be such a Collectivist and make up your own Damn mind!!"
