society

Description

Society is the grand stage of collective ego that celebrates individual freedom while diligently surveilling the actions of its members. It is an immense theater of expectations and disappointments, where people perform their roles shackled by rules and contradictions. While praising diversity, it never forgets that the safest form of difference is the one it ignores or absorbs. Those who shout loudest about the public good often reveal themselves as hunters stalking someone else’s purse.
