You and everyone except psychopaths cares about tribes even if you don't think you do. Tribe = society. Social exclusion = death. You can find new friends thanks to internet. Flat earthers and religious communities have more strong relations IRL than us here | |||||||||||||||||

Well what I mean is it doesn't matter if you piss off your tribe these days because you can just find another one that aligns better with you instead. No need to fake it to fit in. This is what's so great about today's globalised society and internet. There's always people like you somewhere within reach. I could totally not live in a small country town where I'd be forced to pretend to be religious and care about sports. And I'm into other stuff like polyamory that small communities tend to hate. So yeah that would be hell for me. I probably would end up excluded. I also tend to change pretty radically every few years or so. Including finding a new country to live, new hobbies etc. So I have few long term ties anyway. I like it like that. I tend to feel trapped in too stable situations. | |||||||||||||||||
