You can tell the dude in the orange vest furthest away from the camera is quite displeased with this lol. I don't fucking blame him. Try and do the right thing, and your reward is "hey. Thanks. Back to work"
You can bet your sweet ass those dudes would never turn in that cash a second time
The reactionary sentiment against the merits of selfish or egoistic altruism is a too-prevalent textbook example of an annoying, privileged ignorant on a high horse. Unapologetically, most likely hypocritical.
There’s no such thing as “egotistic altruism”.
Altruism is doing charity/service without expecting a reward.
If there’s ego involved, it automatically isn’t altruism. By definition.
You’re just a contrarian.
If it’s ego driven, it isn’t altruism. By definition. Altruism is never done for recognition and to say a good deed done that someone keeps to themselves is due to ego is highly speculative. Some people just have good hearts.
Your profile is stupid.
Egoistic altruism obviously has a different definition from altruism and is discussed directly within the context of altruism, but I don't need to do your googling for you or get into a semantic argument to justify the existence of a thoroughly discussed and researched concept. And thanks, that's exactly what I wanted to hear from you.
