@ -10,13 +10,14 @@ Some signs of egoism include:
|
|||
- **Egoism masked as [joking](jokes.md)** (see also [doing it with a smile](doing_it_with_a_smile.md)), i.e. doing something egoistic and then pretending to do it for the sake of a joke; for example in the book *World of Warcraft Diary* the author *X* puts a huge quote of himself on one page and jokingly writes under it *"X quoting X in his own book"* -- hahaha we laughed ok? It's not egoism, it's done for a joke, BTW the quote will stay there. The author here thinks he is smart as he thinks this achieves two things: promoting himself while also making him look like someone with a sense of humor. In fact it just makes him look like the most egocentric bastard.
|
||||
- **[Assertiveness](assertiveness.md)**.
|
||||
- **Giving oneself special names**. Making a quick Internet handle is cool for practical purposes, inventing an artistic name or even changing it legally is just an inflated ego.
|
||||
- **Talking about oneself too much**.
|
||||
- **Talking about oneself too much**, turning any conversation into a conversation about himself, signs of this include for example starting sentences with "As an X, I think ..."; as in "As a professional game designer I think ...".
|
||||
- **Being a [capitalist](capitalism.md)**; by definition a capitalist only cares about himself, capitalist is incapable of love or wanting any benefit for anyone else than himself, he only benefits others if he sees it will somehow lead to his own benefit in the future (this applies even to for example to caring about his own family etc.).
|
||||
- **Using licenses that require giving credit**, such as [CC-BY-SA](cc_by_sa.md).
|
||||
- **Arriving late (bad timekeeping)**: by arriving late you're wasting the time of others and saving your own time, implying you think your time is more important, it's basically the same as physically beating someone. A good man will plan to arrive at least half an hour earlier so that even if he gets late, he'll still be on time, and if by some extreme miracle he still arrives late, he must pay the other one money or give him some other gift, for example free sex in case of woman.
|
||||
- **"Personal pronouns".** Also inventing weird sexes and identities for oneself.
|
||||
- **Making (or allowing others to make) art that glorifies you**, e.g. documentaries, books etc. You always have to oppose making any documentary, movie, statue and other kinds of works that would glorify you, even just slightly.
|
||||
- **Being a [celebrity](hero_culture.md)**: this one without any exceptions. A well known man may not necessarily be a celebrity, but it is almost always the case, it would have to be someone who became famous while trying as hard as possible to not become famous. No, that one favorite celebrity of yours is not an exception to this. No, not even when he looks like a good man and when you've seen documentaries in which everyone said he's a humble man and when you've read he gives money to charity and hugs trees and saves puppies and feeds children in Africa.
|
||||
- **[Virtue signaling](virtue_signaling.md)**.
|
||||
- ...
|
||||
|

Remember, **to love others you mustn't love yourself too much**, it helps if you hate yourself. Ideally you should love everyone equally, yourself and others too, but by loving yourself more you are hurting others while loving yourself less you only hurt yourself -- a truly [selfless](selflessness.md) man will rather choose to hurt himself than others, so it's always better to try to love yourself less.
