Importance of the Individual

-Importance of the individual is once again starting to be recognized. For the past several decades the culture has continually decomposed and chipped away at the power of the individual, by implying your only “important” if you contribute to the culture, a culture of waste and destruction. It denounces our appearance and makes you continually strive to look like someone else, tells you to fuel a major corporation that crushes the small person, and says you need a 8x12 sheet of paper to give you any intellectual merit. Recently though, through drug culture and the increase in psychology and neurological fields suggests we are once again starting to value the beauty of our minds over knowledge of other worldly contraptions. We know how to fix cars, how to maintain electronics, and how rockets work but barely anything about how we operate. Hopefully we realize it’s better to be able to manufacture and repair your own mind instead of handing it over to the nearest greasy haired mechanic.
