whether it is singing, eating their cuisine, accent etc

2017-07-27 07:31:54 UTC  

But I am not participating very much because I don't want to.

2017-07-27 07:32:21 UTC  

Don't leave the house?

2017-07-27 07:32:39 UTC  

You're exposed to culture irl

2017-07-27 07:33:19 UTC  

architecture, going to ur local store to buy cultural food

2017-07-27 07:33:26 UTC  

Sure, I'm exposed. But you don't seem to be able to tell the difference between perpetuating norms and expections, and choosing not too when it suits me.

2017-07-27 07:33:45 UTC  

I don't feel like I owe society anything.

2017-07-27 07:33:47 UTC  

You can't ignore culture

2017-07-27 07:33:51 UTC  

You don't owe society

2017-07-27 07:33:55 UTC  

you partake in it regardless

2017-07-27 07:34:00 UTC  

it doesn't expect you to

2017-07-27 07:34:08 UTC  

you are apart of a culture if you're apart of a community

2017-07-27 07:34:18 UTC  

a culture will develop if there is none introduced or already there

2017-07-27 07:34:36 UTC  

All true. But you are not addressing my first question.

2017-07-27 07:35:28 UTC  

If I don't want to get involved in certain things, like familiy commitments, education, work, tasks, standards, norms etc. Why should I have to? I'm just choosing not to because that's what I prefer.

2017-07-27 07:35:40 UTC  

I will do something else that suits me more.

2017-07-27 07:36:06 UTC  

You are not required to do any of those

2017-07-27 07:36:10 UTC  

but it is expected

2017-07-27 07:36:27 UTC  

you benefit society as a whole by obtaining a job and suiting standards

2017-07-27 07:36:36 UTC  

also by engaging in a family

2017-07-27 07:36:54 UTC  

Hooray. That's right. I am not required. I don't agree with the premise it will benefit society. I don't like society, why should I benefit it?

2017-07-27 07:37:14 UTC  

Because what society benefits from you benefit from

2017-07-27 07:37:17 UTC  

you're apart of society

2017-07-27 07:37:36 UTC  

not unless you disagree with the society then btfo

2017-07-27 07:37:41 UTC  

That's not the way I see it.

2017-07-27 07:38:08 UTC  

I benefit more when I do what I like. Not what others push on me.

2017-07-27 07:38:36 UTC  

Nobody really forces anyone to get married

2017-07-27 07:38:44 UTC  

Education is definitely recommended

2017-07-27 07:38:50 UTC  

and getting a Job is expected

2017-07-27 07:38:55 UTC  

in a capitalist society

2017-07-27 07:39:09 UTC  

you won't benefit in a capitalist society by being unemployed

2017-07-27 07:39:27 UTC  

Norms are part and parcel in any culture

2017-07-27 07:39:36 UTC  

as well as standards

2017-07-27 07:39:41 UTC  

Yeah. We're not getting anywhere.

2017-07-27 07:39:52 UTC  

Even if you established a new culture to escape those norms

2017-07-27 07:39:58 UTC  

you'd create your own standards and norms

2017-07-27 07:40:06 UTC  

others may disagree with those

2017-07-27 07:40:20 UTC  

But no one is obligated to them, in any scenario. That's my only point.

2017-07-27 07:40:56 UTC  

👻

2017-07-27 07:41:09 UTC  

Not unless you want to get arrested for public indecency

2017-07-27 07:41:19 UTC  

Maybe I do.
