Is the glass half empty or half full? The answer is the one that tells the least lie.

• @Mahmuda, I think truth is what human perceive as correct. Absolute scale lies only in one's heart, as one can prove the base of physical world is only in one's perception. See delayed quantum erasure experiment.

• That is an issue only if the selfish person cares about how much others hate him/her, which probably isn't the case.
• Beyond one point probably everyone can be seen as getting selfish. The disagreement is on where the line should be drawn. You know there is a scientific name on this line, it's called "The Monkey Sphere". Not kidding.

  There probably will be a automated way 50 years later <---- what I said.
• I think horse wagon riders though the same when they saw fat man driving the first invented cars on road.

  But the truth is: we are not living a better life compared with the past. Just a different life.

• The fat lazy where the car drivers <-- recheck my comment.

• Maybe we are really witnessing the beginning of the end. Or may be not. Time will say. Algeria will be tough ground. The regime is really ruthless. I woun't be surprised if this one fails.
• That's expression of hope and optimism. But there is still reality and calculation.
• China is politically socialist. Economically fully capitalist.
