i dont understand the question
Muh materialism
>Individualism VS Collectivism and it’s relations to liberalism
Which brings us to an obvious fact that nobody is willing to admit. Collectivist ideologies are inherently authoritarian and individualist ideologies are by DEFAULT anti-authoritarian. Since liberalism puts all its focus on private property rights, free market, and freedom of speech is is inherently individualist.
Dont really expect you to understand anything
>A neutered monarchy that never does jack shit.
It's a monarchy, just not an absolutist one. If you have absolutism in mind, just say so.
>Are you trying to tell me that liberalism as an ideology doesn’t value individualism over collectivism?
Liberalism was historically very nationalistic and the nationalism obviously overruled any "individualism", which is why liberals were among the most fervent supports of Fascism, in Germany, Italy, etc. The Italian Fascists formed a "National Bloc" with the Liberals.
In Germany, the Nazis received most of their support from former Liberal voters. Same patterns emerge in other countries. Oh wait, you didn't know that, did you?
The most extreme version of individualism would be anarcho-capitalism, and there is no arguing with this.
Marxism proclaims itself to be materialist but it has revealed itself to be idealism, as evidenced by the way Marxists have clung to the intellectual model and predictions of Marx (none of which are actual material things and are therefore by definition idealist), in the face of the material evidence of more than a century worth of failed Marxist experimentation.
I believe the proper term is autistic
Authority is inescapable if you want to have a society.
All that happens is this alleged 'freedom' installs people into positions to impose their will on other.
the difference is the collectivist society has some sense of group cohesion and therefore the authority is trying to benefit the group, whereas the individualist society can claim to be individualist, and use this claim to justify the individual with authority continuing to use it for his own self interests alone
The assertion that a metaphysican would view this world as static is a false one.

The physical world, the world of becoming, as far as i know is understood to be a world of flux and change.
Its not something unique to Marx or materialists.
Engels predicted both world wars and the collapse of the USSR.
historical materialism is the most accurate predictive theory of history humanity possesses
