That's an insight into self-obsession and maybe B.R. identifies one root of today's hyper-individualism.

Perhaps our culture's hyper-individualism could be traced to more Christianities which stressed the importance of internal psychological states and events.

Though the Puritan ethics would seem to have been a brake on, or obstacle to, actions which were openly me, me, me. cf #DonaldTrump
