[empty left-wing simpleton blabber about "society"]

Society is not an organic entity. It has no will, it does not act.
Individual people have will and undertake actions. When they act in
concert, it does not mean some "collective" is acting; it means
individual persons are acting collectively, in pursuit of their *shared*
individual interests.

You have no clue what teamwork is.


An individual person can voluntarily leave a society and go inhabit
another place with a different society, or live in isolation in no
society at all. Your eyeball cannot choose on its own to go live in
someone else's eye socket, or to live in isolation.

Society can banish an individual member or they can imprison them or
they can kill them. The individual doesn't possess the power to do
anything if society forbids it. You're fantasy about the individual is
laughable. All individuals are under the power of the society. You can't
do anything without the approval of society unless it's a triviality.


You really should shut up about "society" - all your beliefs and
statements about it are wrong.

You mean in a layman's opinion, right?

You know what they say don't you? You're entitled to your own opinions
but you are not entitled to your own facts. Apparently you believe that
your opinions are facts. Especially when they concern society or
individual and collective behavior. Clearly you have no education or
training in sociology. You don't even know what the word means and you
don't even believe it exists so that is surely a case where you have
provided your own facts. I'm sure any Ph.D in sociology would tell you
that your views are not right. But you would tell him he knows nothing
about sociology. So there the rub. You know more than anyone, at least
you think you do. As long as you do that you'll never learn anything.
But hey, since you already know everything that shouldn't be a problem.
