RE: Forget being unique - and please keep those 'inspirational' quotes to yourself

in #value6 years ago

Love this. We are able to express our individuality like ever before, yet we're more interdependant on wider group of people than ever as well. This drive to celebrate the individual and ignore the responsibility they have to the collective is what is tearing the US apart right now.

Beyond that we also have a tendancy to individualize our problems in a really isolating way, like we're the only people that have ever and will ever experience them. It's incredibly theraputic to know you are not alone when you have problem and that others have had the same issue and found a resolution.

Sort:  

I think you're absolutely right. Although I'm not from the US myself, so don't know I can comment on that aspect of it. But it is also the direction Europe is going towards... Even in China I saw the same tendencies.
