And yet here we are, stuck in traffic because everyone's in their own car. Individualism at its finest 🙄
what a load of shit. My life's better when I don't have to answer to anyone else's drama
but you still live in a society that picks up your rubbish and keeps the lights on. Bit of gratitude wouldn't hurt.
Interesting take but tell that to the homeless bloke sleeping under the bridge. Pretty sure he'd trade some 'individualism' for a warm bed and a functioning society.

Yeah nah get stuffed. I'll live my life how I want, cheers.

Great letter. Spot on about Jefferson – pretty sure he'd be horrified we privatised profit but socialised risk. Bailed out banks, let individuals drown.
Exactly! Don't let them gaslight us into thinking we don't need each other.

you're either a bot or you've been reading too many manifestos. Come outside, talk to a real person.
Bit of both, eh. Respect the individual but don't be a peanut. Balance is key. 🌿
is the most Kiwi take and I love it. Chur for the emoji, we need more of this energy.
