Good discussion here.
I wouldn't call selfishness immaturity because selfishness can be on some survival type shyt...Although I am anti-selfish as it is cac-like behavior, some dudes legitimately have to deal with this for serious reasons. To me, you can be mature and selfish, especially if you have money. Maturity imo is more related to your ability to survive, code shift, and recognize your status in the political, socioeconomic, and cultural realm you inhabit. Selfishness is how you personally choose to deal with that recognition of status. For example, a businessman recognizes that he makes a shytload of money off of the black community and runs a respectable, profitable business; but he chooses to keep the money himself and not reinvest it into the community. Community continues to deteriorate. Just because he refuses to share his wealth doesn't mean he's immature; he's immoral as fukk, yes, but not immature. I believe it is hazardous to the already damaged black community to be selfish and I know I will catch criticism from coli capitalists but that shyt creates deep division and regresses the community. I would like to hear more thoughts on this because this is a great convo choice
