I think the saddest realization one may ever have is to know that people are sheep. The endless ways in which they vie for individuality is to chase fame, cut their hair, wear clothes, have tattoos but never it seems, change their way of thinking. None of these things makes them free or individual. These are the permits of society but the chains of society are fixed into their imaginations and never undone.
When I read senone recently saying nothing is free I pointed out the planet was never paid for. She said those times are extinct. Not seeing that we are inculcated into this system, everyone has to be brainwashed into believing it is a fact of life not life itself and not understanding that it rules our imaginations because we are not sophisticated enough in our thinking to live without it.
