“They are taught everywhere, from advertisements to schools and from media to relationships, that they must always follow their instincts, that if they are not "self-confident," they will not be loved by anyone, or that they must change things "to make the world a better place" and "contribute to the common good," which leads them to have a primal, worldly view and an empty, shallow sense of individuality.”

“Modern culture rewards surface-level uniqueness, such as appearance, career path, or social media presence, but punishes true divergence in worldview, thought, or behavior. What people often refer to as "being different" is usually just someone walking down the exact same path as everyone else, but with their steps slightly bent and curved rather than being direct and usual like others. So, although they appear as "individuals" from the outside, inside, they are actually a herd of the same kind of sheep blindly following each other. This is conformity within “individuality.” And this disguise is the thing that gives the tool for the Westerners to call themselves "freedom fighters.”

“I do not feel I truly belong to any group. I can walk into a gathering, even share a smile, yet I remain somewhat apart, drawn not to the crowd but to the rare few with whom a real bond can be formed. I live more through solitude than through society; independence is the air I breathe. It is not that I dislike people, I enjoy being around them, but I enjoy it most as an observer, not as one who throws himself fully into the noise. My heart does not find strength in the chatter of many; it longs for the depth of a single honest conversation. And so, in groups I often feel out of place, but in the presence of one kindred spirit I feel truly alive. I am steady in solitude, creative in my distance, yet always at odds with the world’s demand that I belong.”
