The Regimentation of American Life is Soul Sucking and Destroying Our Spirit of Individualism

From our first day at school to our last day of work, we are told not to be entrepreneurs or think for ourselves, but instead to do what others tell us. Rather than playing a pickup game of whiffle ball on the neighborhood corner, we play organized tee ball with coaches and uniforms. Rather than studying what we are interested in while in college, we take classes that will “lead to a good job at an established company.” Instead of starting a company, we work as a nameless drone for a corporate behemoth. Rather than explore the woods, we follow trails through parks and natural forests. We don’t read what we’re interested in, we read what others say we should. And so on and so forth. Every action is the result not of reason, but of someone else saying what to do.

But to merely lament that fact would miss the point. It’s a tragedy that Americans are no longer the resilient, independent, self-confident people that they were during the days of Lewis and Clark. What is worse, however, is why many of our countrymen have devolved from lions to lemmings.

That is the goal of the traitorous Demonicrats, and it will continue to be their goal until, following their trial, conviction, and sentencing, these traitors experience a short drop and quick stop.

For the vile globalists to succeed, American individualism and the American nation itself must be destroyed. When you consider the fanatacism of the one world globalists, the fact that they control academia, the MSM, big tech and capital markets, you soon realize that stealing an election to rid the obstacle of “America first” Trump was to them a necessary, noble act.

Globalists control the labor market which is the worse thing of all.

Every Red County should issue a few of these to its patriot citizens. The regimentation of America would come to a swift close.

“Real” Americans must be shamed or cajoled into buying T-shirts with pre-printed controversial slogans to advertise their independence and rugged individuality. Or so say the tin-pot T-shirt patriots.

The funny thing is that if I had free rein to choose my classes in college I would have taken a few more technical classes instead of the liberal arts classes I had to take to make me "well rounded". I don't recall any history majors taking semiconductor physics although science and engineering students had to take English, history, psychology and such.

Right, learning about Shakespeare is critical to your life. Someone knowing how electricity is made is not.

Re: Studying what you are interested in...

This is a luxury involving both time and money. It is similar to having enough excess money to buy fine wine and then having the leisure to drink it slowly.

When the base layers of Maslow’s Needs are met only then is there the excess time and money for self actualization.
