if you lack empathy then there is no reason for you to help.

Let's say I saw someone drowning in lake. There is no way it'll implicate me legally as a bystander

that's the fucking point. Altruism is intrinsically illogical. That's why it's a virtue you dumb fuck.
Yes I could make a "Lindy effect" argument that the multiplicative effects of eusocial and altruistic behaviors by societies helps endure successive survival pressures which is why altruistic and cooperative phenotype are more emergent.... but that's not the fucking point on an individual level.
It's like "faith". When you take a "leap of faith" you're admitting that there is no logical reason to take a course of action, but you're doing it anyway.
You do it because you fucking feel like, there is no logical or reasonable reason for it!

People like you are the problem and why the world is slowly being ruined.
Completely snuffing out the concept of self along with free will.
I have no interest in killing myself but you better be damn sure I would use the most fool proof method around to do so if I did.
So I didn't have to come back & face shit heads like you claiming I need to be locked up for attempting to practice free will.
There is no more a burden from me eating a bullet in a field on my property than there is a deer dying there.
It's essentially compost, but all of you soft fucks would have to have it removed immediately based on your stupid fucking sensibilities instead of letting me enrich the soil.
Fuck off.

Altruism is a concept that doesn't even exist in reality. If you help someone it is never 'selfless' as you are always acting in the self-interest of getting that positive warm feeling from having done something nice/noble/etc. Even if you sacrifice your very life, you are still doing it to fufill a personal code and are only acting in that way because you find it intolerable not to.

You are obviously a child, so I will explain as would to a child.
You will find that the true measure of a person is not his opinion of himself, or his actions in times of normalcy.
A man is defined by his actions in the face or crisis.
Are you selfish and cowardly, hiding your face at a call for action?
Or do you act for the good of others simply because you can?
TLDR: What you are is defined by your actions.
The choice is always yours.

Suicide booths now!
I feel a lot of this world's problems would go away if people weren't forced and shamed into living.

or he can wait until she's dead and take whatever hole/s he likes. Bad argument.
