That one's a thinker. You covered a lot. I bet it was cathartic, though. So much of this post sounds like my partner. I'm tempted to go read it to him, but I already know he won't even look up from his computer and he'll say he's busy. He gets tired of the whole 'being judged' thing too...but, who doesn't.
And you're so right that it seems most schools teach children to be obedient. Perhaps they are the lucky ones, those kids who learn to be obedient. I was taught to question things, to test limits, to explore ideas. It hasn't worked out so well. Apparently, I'm not a good peasant. too uppity.

Personally, I don't have a problem with the word, 'society'. Perhaps you could offer an alternative term?
