"Just the opposite is true", is his lead-in to the next sentence, which I cut for brevity.
The follow-up is, "Individualists advocate true charity, which is the voluntary giving of their own money, while collectivists advocate the coercive giving of other people’s money; which, of course, is why it is so popular."

Nothing, other than being in possession of a poor personality trait, but, that's only my personal opinion of selfishness. I wouldn't be in favor of forcing you to be not selfish. In fact, forcing you to give against your wishes couldn't, on it's own, make you less selfish, anyway.
Nice hat, btw.
