There's a big difference between being an egotist and being self-absorbed. The latter is more forgiveable as it does not require arrogance.
The family of an egotistical or self-doubting person might be equally neglected or even more so by the latter.

But from the perspective of condemnation, I think we need more charity & not to dismiss all self-absorbed people as egotists.
-
I agree with everything so far but I also think we should ideally be forgiving of egotists, even though it'd hard to do.
-
They probably can't help it either when it comes down to it, no.
-
Yeah, people's behavior is ultimately based on luck. They may be able to help it, but whether they want to or not is luck
-
Yep. However, going to the ultimate ends all conversations on behaviour, values, ethics etc & we still need those.
-
I think the conversations can still be had while acknowledging luck's role. In fact I think it's more muddled if we don't
-
Its a bit like solipsism. I think we only have to acknowledge that everything ulimately down to luck once & then go on.
-
Make sure everyone accepts this & then talk practically abt the value of various ethical standards.
