One must conform and one must also be who they are. These are powerful conflicting memes that are prevalent in society today. This dichotomy results in a problematic situation where people are convinced that if they don't conform to the standards of society by simply being themselves that there is something wrong with them. I see so much anguish over this in too many people. It rips at them every day. I watch this and I remember I used to feel that anguish too, until one day I finally decided "Fuck it. Fuck you all. Fuck off. I'm a freak. I like being a weirdo. I'm glad I don't fit into your worldview and I DON'T FUCKING WANT TO BE LIKE YOU!". It's freeing. It's liberating. And I'm not going back.
