It can be depending on the case.
Its bad when its not me being selfish. Everyone else should care about me personallly
Most of the time it's bad in the sense that it negates the purpose and ideological underpinnings of believing selfishness to be not bad or good. You reduce your social power.
>he thinks stealing is a bad thing
Being selfish does not exactly correlate with being a criminal, it's simply holding one's own interests as their highest value. One cannot steal and expect not to be stolen from, and because of this most people should choose not to steal. That doesn't mean that people don't steal in the name of selfishness, but criminal behavior detaches itself from every moral virture and pins itself to the morally questionable ground of hedonism. You will find thieves and leeches stealing in the name of selflessness just as easily.
Can you expand on this, genuinely interested in what you're getting at.
Pls go on
this may sound like brainlet talk but it's all about balance, is bad to be too selfish and it's also bad to be extremely selfless
