As an individualist nation, there's little likelihood anyone will throw themselves away for the collective. Doubly so because the collective is super fucking thankless and turns everything it gets into garbage.
I've really been debating the idea if there's any point of trying to help at all at this point, and my current conclusion is: we're already wayyyy down the dystopia line. The only hope at this point is AI which will either save us or (hopefully) bring the great filter sooner (which means less suffering). But I no longer believe in protest.
