If many people find agreements with a person's notions of conformity, by the evidence of the popularity of their writings, does that make these people conformists, and therefore engenders conformist attitudes towards the author's point of view on non-conformity?
Genuinely pondering.
- jfarmer 6y agoI think the one-dimension "conformist" / "non-comformist" axis isn't useful. We all participate in orthodoxies that we're blind to (or at least not fully aware of). The only questions are "Which ones?" and "What are the consequences of our participation?" In that sense, we're all "conformists".
