You seem to have an entirely separate definition of what egotistical altruism means from how most other people understand the concept. In its simplest form it's just doing good unto others so they can live more productive better lives as more of their needs are met by community support.

This is America we are discussing. On a worldwide political spectrum. Sure, definitely to the right of the central line but from the American perspective that's as left as it gets.

Claims to understand language

doesn't understand word is being used in a non-gendered manner.... The verb is completely detached from the noun in normal use. You could say Elon musk is the world's richest bitch and that would not be even insulting. That would be a snide way to say he is exceedingly wealthy. If I said Elon Musk that rich bitch? then again, bitch would not be being used in a derogatory or gendered manner. If I said Elon musk is a massive bitch. Now we have finally arrived at an insult. Still not gendered.

Edit side to snide

I'm not the guy you're replying to and I am interested to hear his response, but also I'd like to point out that you jumped to conclusions faster than Superman can jump over a building. But hey what do I know? I'm just a libertarian minarchist. Personally, almost all of your purity tests are repugnant from my point of view.

Maybe you should look into egotistical altruism.

It's a political slang word. It refers to those who support leftist authoritarian regimes such as communist, China. Regimes where the state can do no wrong and the people do all the wrong so the state must step in to crush the people and "protect them" from dangerous, Western and capitalist ideas. Pretty sure the name derives from the 1989 tiananmen square incident.
