No there’s still selfishness. They don’t consider how much short term suffering affects other people. If that person owns their home, has savings, can brace for not having a job for a while that’s great. But it’s pretty blase to say that they’ll be fine while they disregard everyone else who isn’t set up as well
They are saying that they would be fine in the context of being a part of the people that would suffer. They might have not considered that there are people in worse situations

Yes but the selfishness lies in how he claims he will be fine, without regard for others. Selfish. He isn’t either selfish or ignorant, he is both.
