Why is individualism a bad thing?

cross-posted from: hexbear.net/post/2409929

Everytime I here individualism brought up by someone from Hexbear or Lemmygrad, it gets talked about as if it’s categorically bad and wrong. Why is that?

This goes against everything I’ve learned in the states, where we consider individualism a necessary part of being a responsible and moral person, whereas collectivism strips us of our humanity and turns us into subhuman insectoid creatures incapable of thought.

PanArab,

Individualism goes against human nature, and it is probably why people are lonely and homelessness is epidemic in the US.

How is this working out for the US?
