All over the world you hear people feel the need to place themselves above others. “I was born in Somalia, I’m better than you! I’m a Discord moderator, I’m better than you! I’m a Trotskyite so I’m better than you!” When we consider that every living being in existence boils down to a consciousness, there is nothing for us to be identified with. If your consciousness was put inside of another person, you would then be described with the egoic labels of that person instead for that lifetime.

When we take the egalitarian approach, we are providing equal respect to the masses without favoritism. We are also not putting ourselves on any ideological or superficial pedestal above the masses. From this approach, we are able to be more genuine and we can more successfully live by socialist ideals.

We must uphold egalitarianism in our lives to have good relationships with people. By building relationships we can also become better revolutionaries with more potential to organize and come together to end capitalism, slavery and exploitation. Egalitarianism is the only way to defend from toxic egoic energies and from becoming narcissists.
