The culture of self-inflicted shrinking, minimalism, the lack of those things that offer us advancement is such a big ball to digest. Sometimes it has more sadism than continence.
We're shifting our collective mind to tend towards eliminating everything that takes effort, getting slower and underdeveloped, all pursuing the ideal of reduction for one reason or another (internal or external environmentalism always seems to have something to do with it).
I see the development of selfishness as interesting and necessary for society to look again towards the development model that finds solutions to problems instead of constantly looking the other way every time we find ourselves with a by-product that stains or irritates the neighbor.
