A comment on Why Can't We All Just Get Along? Uncertain Biological Basis of Morality (2013). Parent comment
Individualism is directly comparable to utilitarianism.
The rational people in our society should be debating individualism vs. collectivism vs. utilitarianism (possibly vs. others).
That is in lieu of discussing the higher-level political instantiations of these things (e.g. libertarianism vs. socialism, etc.).
What political system you want depends (at least) on what moral system you favor.
I am not so sure about this...
