"almost all of them are conformists. They are more or less honest, but they tolerate those who are not honest" - Grigori Perelmen

Basically we need to round up and shoot the conformists and dishonest bunch to Mars when ever the rockets are ready. We already have enough personal data to categorize everyone pretty accurately.




Wouldn't this selection process ironically conform to the main view? And isn't the analysis of personal data yet another chilling effect on non-conformism in the first place?


I was just being flip. The selection process will never happen because the conformists and professionally dishonest will have something to say about it.


I got that, I meant to illustrate the idea that anti-conformism isn't always what it purports to be
