Altruism is an illusion. No one truly acts selflessly β every good deed either brings a good feeling, social recognition, or something in return, be it material or emotional. Even those who help without expectation do so because it aligns with their own values ββand gives them a clear conscience. In the end, it's always about one's own benefit β whether directly or indirectly. Selflessness is just a clever mask for well-disguised egoism.
