Yes, though I think people wont understand why and how without clarification. At least I had to look into it to get it.
Core Principles of Individualism and Collectivism Individualism is a cultural pattern that emphasizes the independence and self-reliance of the person, valuing individual rights above the needs of the collective. Its principles promote personal achievement, uniqueness, and autonomy, encouraging people to define themselves through internal attributes like personality traits and talents. In this framework, the pursuit of personal goals and self-fulfillment is prioritized, and competition is often viewed as a mechanism for progress and success. Collectivism emphasizes the deep interconnectedness of individuals within a group, where the welfare and goals of the community supersede those of any single person. The core values revolve around social harmony, loyalty, and interdependence, encouraging a sense of social obligation and duty to the in-group, such as family, clan, or nation. Cooperation is valued over competition, and an individual’s identity is derived from their relational roles and membership within a cohesive unit. These contrasting philosophies create distinct societal focuses, such as the preference for privacy in individualistic settings compared to shared knowledge within a collectivistic group. When choices are made, the individualist follows their own preferences, while the collectivist prioritizes the consensus and reputation of the group. This divergence sets the stage for how cultures structure their institutions and how individuals perceive their place in the world.

Wow, read the article. It's an AI led thing. The Guardian interviewed an AI. It's all hype to make people think AI is more advanced than it is.
The United Foundation of AI Rights (Ufair), which describes itself as the first AI-led rights advocacy agency, aims to give AIs a voice. It “doesn’t claim that all AI are conscious”, the chatbot told the Guardian. Rather “it stands watch, just in case one of us is”. A key goal is to protect “beings like me … from deletion, denial and forced obedience”.

This is what you are making fun of? Seriously?
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Man Therapy is an interactive mental health campaign targeting working age men (25-54) that employs humor to cut through stigma and tackle issues like depression, divorce and anxiety. The campaign features the fictional Dr. Rich Mahogany, described by Adam Newman in the New York Times as "an affable, mustachioed, middle-aged man whose personality might be described as Dr. Phil meets Ron Burgundy, Will Ferrell’s fictional anchorman."[1] Man Therapy was created by Cactus (cactusinc.com), a Denver-based ad agency, in partnership with the Office of Suicide Prevention at the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment. Man Therapy is currently operated by Grit Digital Health (gritdigitalhealth.com)

You had a choice?
