Nonconformity and the Human Conundrum

Society: A group of people with regulations and rules mandated for their protection; a collection of individuals with a common set of ideals; a majority inherently exclusive of some minority in a designated region.
In a society, there a those who fit, and those who

Dont


What are the effects of a society? It's an interesting effect upon careful consideration. What is a major tenet of a society? [a common set of ideals]. That could be considered their general morality, as well as their general belief system. And what happens to those who don't fit?

(S O C I E T Y) <-- that's the box of society. We'll call it a microcosm

In a microcosm, situations, individuals, ideals that one has never encountered seem foreign, alien, wrong. If a certain set of humans are right to you, and another set are wrong, what do they become in your mind? something subhuman...?

With a rejection of difference comes an idea that some people are inherently beneath those who fit the rules of an exclusive society

We are fortunate enough to live in a great country in which freedom of speech is a right, not a privilege.

It is the responsibility of the dehumanized to fight back.

Every human being is equal. We are all of equal potential. And because some people dont fit a mold, who's right is it to look down on them?

NONCONFORMITY

Fight. Back.

To conform: to erase one's essential essence to fit an idea; the self-effacing that occurs when one is pressured to change identity.

This is why i speak out. i no longer accept evanescence. i will not evaporate to fit this society. i will not become something hollow.

i am a human being.

so what is the human conundrum: how do we fix the exclusive, erasing effects of society? to abolish society is to revert to animilistic instinctual living...right?

...can you solve the
human conundrum...?
