The concept of this thing we call "society" is just that, a concept. It is an abstraction. "Society" isn't out there somewhere. Each individual makes up this thing we call society and society is made up of individuals. You and I are society. There were many individuals who made up the society of that time who saw the cruelty of slavery but their voices were 'almost' mute in the face of the loud clamour of those who were less conscious and resolved to further their own interests in the face of such cruelty. Cruelty is cruelty regardless of the consensus. One must stand ALONE and not be so dependent on the authority of the experts and academicians and politicians and priests in order to navigate through life. One must not look to the consensus of 'society'. Stand alone, by yourself, if you dare. Now we 'think' we are talking about pigs. But we are really talking about our treatment of each other, the environment, animals, over population, climate change, rape, murder, war, etc. We may take a fragment of the entire quagmire and discuss the different threads individually, but the threads are a manifestation, in whole, of an absolute crisis in our own consciousness. We are at the brink, and we cannot blame (other) animals for it, nor can we blame trees and plants. We have brought ourselves here. The way that individuals treated other individuals in times of slavery, the way that individuals treat other individuals now, the way that individuals treat animals .... society is made up of individuals and I am one individual talking to another. Call it "society" if you wish but I prefer to talk in real terms rather than abstractions. |

Food for thought .... "It is no measure of health to be well adjusted to a profoundly sick society" I'm not going to quote the author because it doesn't matter. We are at the brink of destruction and you want to know what the research is? If it was peer reviewed? If "society" is in consensus? Who the "authority" is? Why not just find yourself a new priest? You talk about subjectivity as if subjectivity was separate from the object. |
