The rise of individualism (even more fueled by lockdown!!!) is SUCH a big blocker for our future. We NEED other people to survive, no mattter how much money we have, we must remember this.

Absolutely! The idea that we, as an individual self are complete, when in reality we can't exist without the bacteria on our skin or in our guts, or water or air is crazy. Or even that we can protect ourselves through wealth: all that means is that we are relying on people we don't know, rather than people we do know. Either way, we still NEED others.
