You believe in the power of group effort and cooperation to achieve common goals and societal well-being.
Collectivism is a political ideology that emphasizes the collective or group over the individual. It prioritizes the needs, rights, and goals of the group as a whole rather than those of individual members. This ideology is often associated with socialist or communist political systems, where the means of production are owned and controlled by the community as a whole. However, it can also be found in other political systems that emphasize communal responsibility and social cohesion.
The roots of collectivism can be traced back to ancient times, where communal living and shared resour…

When facing social pressures, do you tend to conform for the group's sake or stand by your individuality, and what influences your choice?
@9KWN8RF2mos2MO
I am very much an individual. I listen to what is being said. I research the issue and come to my own determination. I am open to other opinions and have learned from others things I didn't know. I find thoughtful, respectful discussion leads to education for everyone, even if a consensus isn't reached. At least I can understand the person who thinks differently than me better.
@9KWN6F3 2mos2MO
It depends if I feel strongly about the issue or not. I like to consider all points of view before forming an opinion. If mine is not the majority, it is wise to read the room and consider if its worth sharing or won't even be heard.
@9KWN5WH2mos2MO
individuality- how i've been taught and that I should NEVER just go with the flow unless I know it's right.

How do collective traditions within your family or culture enforce the sense of togetherness and its importance?
@9L9HSHP2mos2MO
collectivism can be useful in a society model like democracy. this can help us to work together to make more comfortable to coexist with other people
@9L9HDFX2mos2MO
America has such strong opinions on ethnic culture when Becky is 30% lateno and has never touched Mexican or Spanish soil if we as a society try to identity with our country rather than ethnicity such as other country's with higher patriotism rates we would be much less racist and much more willing to fight for our country.
Everyone is on the same page and can create a better change for the environment, people in America, and the state's economic issues.

How might small acts of selflessness contribute to a better school environment?
@9JR8FK6Women’s Equality3mos3MO
Students and teachers should come together and create a good environment.
@9JS53893mos3MO
I believe that if the students have a good relationship with their teachers then it invites them to be more open and willing to ask more questions.
@9JS5NDD3mos3MO
Teachers and staff are always talking about "being kind" and "coming together" but when a student actually wants to do that, teachers more or less kind of ignore it, and let it be another teacher's problem.
@9JR7T2J3mos3MO
Every student and teacher should be mindful to create an environment where everyone can learn and grow comfortably.
@9JR6SXJ3mos3MO
No collectivism. Just be a better person. Be more selfless out of the goodness of your heart. There needs to be no government system to enforce this.

How important is it when making decisions to consider their impact on everyone else?
@9HJLNKMPeace and Freedom5mos5MO
I feel like as a leader, it is especially important to make sure that your actions are with the intentions of helping the people that work under you. Especially if you’re president.
@9HJLF5S5mos5MO
Very important, as a nation consists not of individuals, but of one body.
@9HJLLL95mos5MO
Its important but I also have my perspective to add into it.
@ISIDEWITH5mos5MO
Can you recall a historical event where a collective effort changed the course of history?
Unionism has completely shaped the modern world, the only reason why the standard work week isn't 50-60 hours anymore is because of the collective threat that the workers provided. Collectivism can also be seen throughout human history providing vast increases in human living standards, technological developments, etc.

Men and women working the factories in the heat of the Second World War. The navy became so large that they had enough for concrete mixers to be turned into ice cream makers. They produced planes by the hundreds each day.

In what ways do you feel that modern technology either supports or undermines the concept of community interaction?
@9HTGLZFLibertarian 5mos5MO
Modern technology and Collectivism can go hand-in-hand. we can use modern technology to advance and enhance our lives. But modern technology can also be used to harm us. We have to have people who are smart enough and wise enough to use what we have to make as better and not use it to make themselves richer.

Would the idea of sharing all your possessions with your community make you feel safe or uncomfortable?
In an ideal world: Safe. In our existing world: Uncomfortable. During my high school years -- still high Anti-Communism years -- a nun explained that the word Communisim came from the same root word as Community, and that their convent shared some attributes that might be considered communistic. That is, in their convent it was "From each, according to her abilities. To each, according to her needs". That sounds good, but seems to only work with like-minded people who voluntarily subscribe to that philosophy. And, though that particular convent is now about 150 years old, history has many cases where other communes dissolved over just a few decades.

How would you describe the feeling when you sacrifice your own wants for the benefit of friends or family?
@9J2VB6F4mos4MO
I would describe the feeling of how I feel when I sacrifice my own wants for the benefits of friends or family is selfless in my opinion.
@9J2VFX2Peace and Freedom4mos4MO
It definitely hurts but I know it’s for a good cause .

How would you feel if your class grades were based on collective performance rather than individual merit?
@ISIDEWITH3mos3MO
@ISIDEWITH4mos4MO
In a challenging scenario, would you rely on a community’s wisdom or solely on your instincts?
@ISIDEWITH5mos5MO
Reflect on a moment when teamwork or collaboration in your life led to an unexpected success or outcome.

Our class did a team test recently and got an 100%

When I was working with my employees we all helped each other in ways we didn't realize and ended up being very successful because of it and creating a closer bond between each other.
