stupid society.

[intertribal]

"Each society constitutes and perpetuates itself through setting and prompting certain standards it expects every member to follow, and those standards can only be made visible if some people are seen to fail to meet them. Such people can then be declared a 'problem' which the rest of society must and should cope with."
- Zygmunt Bauman
