That's the trick. The trick is to get you to think it is more one vs the other and that you have a choice. This isn't so at all. Individualism vs ingroup are there and present all the time with every action and every inaction you ever take.

You CANNOT take an action that either DOESN'T require the group or DOESN'T affect the group. It is utterly IMPOSSIBLE for the individual to exist, act and survive without the group.

Every action you take REQUIRES resources acquired and provisioned to you by the group. Simultaneously, every action you take either ADDS or TAKES away from the net / net resources of the group.

Lastly, your BIRTH / EXISTENCE is EXPLICITLY an expression of the ingroups existence and success.

You literally have no say in this whatsoever.
