<p><b>New page</b></p><div>Various versions of individualism are perspectives and ideologies which focuses on individuals rather than on social groups or on society as a whole. Three simple versions of individualism are:<br />
<br />
A.) Moral individualism - An idea about how people SHOULD be treated in society: "We should all be treated as the persons we are, rather than be subjected to [[prejudice]] and [[stereotypes]].<br />
<br />
B.) Inspirational Individualism - An idea about how persons can be, in spite of social pressure: "We can still try our best to be ourselves, instead of submitting blindly to social expectations."<br />
<br />
C.) Fake Individualism - An idea about how people [[a priori]] ARE treated in society: "Everyone is already treated as an individual, so [[prejudice]] and [[discrimination]] does not exist and can't be a relevant problem anywhere in our civilization".<br />
<br />
While moral indiviualism and inspirational individualism both can be used in their own ways to fight against [[categorism]], fake universalism is a tool for upholding and [[invisibilizing]] categorism. <br />
<br />
Note that when a person invokes individualism, the underlying discourse doesn't have to be any of the three versions. But it can be one of them, or a mix of two or of all three.</div>Xzenu
