He considers everything that most of us consider to be normal as wrong - arbitrary standards put on us by a controlling society. Going to school, getting a job, meeting a woman and getting married, buying a home, etc, are all standards that sheep follow.

Because no one ever explained why it was important.


Society has become so atomized that everyone forgot what values built our society or how we live in community with one another.

Decades of families and communities torn apart by self-interest economics and career choices have disintegrated the values and community.(You're considered a loser if you're still living back in your hometown after HS)


Lots of "conservative" boomers never explained to their kids anything about marriage and we're only fiscally conservative.

How many lefties do you know that call themselves "fiscally conservative socially liberal ". These are the perfect products of boomer culture. No values only money and materialism.


It's not a shock younger generations are completely disconnected from a lot of society-building institutions.
