Super Nova,

If you do not regard yourself as an individual, then how would you describe/categorise yourself ?

How would you describe/categorise your own entity's relationship, among others ?

Yadda recognises that he is unique. Tongue

....as an individual, existing among other individuals. What else is there ?

Everyone is distinct, in some, or many ways, imo.

And as the French are known to quip, "Vive la difference!"

....i say!

Spot,

In Super Nova's post, i see what is there, i see what is stated.....

Quote:

Yes we are all individuals.....

I'm not.

Super Nova said he/she,    ....is not, an individual.

So, Super Nova must be a part of the 'collective', a part of the 'hive mind'.

"We are the Borg.
Lower your shields and surrender your ships.
We will add your biological and technological distinctiveness to our own.
Your culture will adapt to service us.
Resistance is futile."

I see that 'meme'    EVERYWHERE    in the West today.

It is the 'meme'    that is being promoted everywhere in our society, by the social LEFT and their social engineers,
who are busy, 'making a better world'
.

I used to think I am an individual. Of course i am but as time goes on and the more I think (note think) I understand more of the universe and the world, human nature, society...etc it occurs to me sometimes I am not really.

I have ever had an original thought?
Am I really in control of my own actions and outcomes?
Can I make things happen on my own?
Hs society beat my individuality out of me and made me a drone that society wants (think the logical song)

When I was young, it seemed that life was so wonderful, a miracle, it was beautiful, magical
And all the birds in the trees, well they'd be singing so happily, joyfully, playfully, watching me
But then they send me away to teach me how to be sensible, logical, responsible, practical
And they showed me a world where I could be so dependable, clinical, intellectual, cynical
There are times when all the world's asleep
The questions run too deep for such a simple man
Won't you please, please tell me what we've learned
I know it sounds absurd but please tell me who I am

I said now, watch what you say, now we're calling you a radical, a liberal, fanatical, criminal
Won't you sign up your name, we'd like to feel you're acceptable, respectable, presentable, a vegetable

I begin to conclude I am less an individual and more a compliant drone like the Borg.

Jonah Lomu was a stand-out 'Individual' in a 'Team' sport.
The French & Boks only had to concentrate on him to beat the whole All Black side.

Individuals in 'team' sports never quite get as far.

USA: Politics - Individual (President) is the positive.
the rest of the Political 'system' is negative.

Aust: Politics - Team (Parties) is positive. The individual PM/G-G positions are negative.
