Conformity is back, but it only takes one person to fight back

Martina MarkotaRebel Contributor

I saw a video recently by a YouTuber named Blackpilled that I found interesting. It was about conformity.

It's important because most of us can understand how we are made to conform within the current political climate. If you do not, you are an "evil racist nazi."

The video brought up a study from the 1950s that I've always found fascinating: Asch’s Conformity Experiment.

It shows that it only takes one person to challenge conformity, and empower others to do the dame.

We're in a hostile political climate, and it's been made hostile by the people forcing people to conform. It has been created by an ideological and political force that understands human nature and exploits it. But it can all be broken if just one person speaks
up.

The left demands conformity while they pretend to be open and advocating freedom and free thought.

It may take some practice to “kick against the Pricks” but you just may start a Movement’

How nice it will be when people realize the totalitarian nature of socialists. Let’s remind people of this when governments impose green taxes and forbid them doing what they please with their property.

We also need free thinkers to counter reflect free thinkers to advance concepts. This is not a privilege of the intellectual class but a God given right our countries in the west recognize.
