What is society? What is it composed of? By definition society is people coming together to create an ordered community more or less. But by what facts determine the orders in the community? You could answer with one's culture, or the majority ruling of culture. This could explain why there are so many different views of society, some that people agree on while some that others disagreed on.
In America, society thinks in ways that almost seems contradictory to each other. Be yourself and follow your dreams, they say, but do not forget that you need to follow our guidelines on how to best express yourself. Females can have more freedom and can express themselves, but do not forget to act like the lady that your ancestors were. Act on your dreams because that is the American dream, to build yourself and flourish in what you enjoy doing, oh, but do not forget that only these jobs can pay your bills.
Society is based on certain beliefs that others believe, so if we are basically following beliefs, why cannot we accept others as well? Why must we shut out different beliefs? Many may answer it with to keep everyone on the same page, or to have there be a systematic way of doing things so that we do not face any problems. But have we faced less problems? If someone thinks out of the box, it does not mean they are wrong, or that they should be shunned from society.
Remember, Einstein was also shunned from society for thinking the way he did, yet now he is praised for what he left us, a legacy. Same goes for so many other people who are now more favored than they were when they were alive.
I wouldn't say people who oppose society are always bad, they just think differently and maybe their ideas are what our future is composed of. Maybe we just will not understand their ideals because it is not the time to understand, yet.
But we should not judge other people's societal thoughts, because who says our society is right? After all, we are all entitled to our own opinions.
But where is it that we draw the line? Where can we say what is right or wrong? Who decides what we can agree on? Will we ever be able to come to a consensus for that?
