“The pendulum was swinging. The #conformist in them said this is wrong. The #rebel in them did it anyway. Neither side was #free, because neither side had looked at the rule itself and seen that it had no authority.”

Sadly, Jello became a chickenshit conformist it self
That's probably how it goes: at some point, you can't take it anymore, and you give in or go down.

"Little Boxes" is a song written and composed by #MalvinaReynolds in 1962. The song was first released by her friend, #PeteSeeger, in 1963, and became his only charting single in January 1964. The song is a #socialSatire about the development of #suburbia and associated #conformist #middleclass attitudes. It mocks suburban #tractHousing as "little boxes" of different colors "all made out of ticky-tacky" and which "all look just the same".

#ReverseDiscrimination is when #Subtly and #Imperceptibly the #Conformist #Cohesion is used as a weapon to highlight your #Uniquenes as #Inadequacy
It is the biggest HR #Heist into #HumanMindset. #CultureUnfit and #Proud with Narghiza Ergashova

Saw someone on #TikTok posit that Gen Z's paranoia at being perceived #online and ridiculed has led to #conformist behaviors and ideologies that have caused them to be more #conservative and I can't stop seeing it.

I know I'm painting with a broad brush here, but I think there is some truth to it. It explains the whole disdain for "millennial-core" which at its heart is just an acceptance of one's own cringe. Cringe is an unforgivable sin now. More than before.

Smart people who pull their punches because they know who butters their bread are really no different from dumb people who play the conformist game by blind savage instinct.
