dang rebels

its something we cant win.only with our minds are we truly individual.whn we use them. i think we all need to evolve.we need something new to rebel against,but theres always gonna be oppression. personally i dont see why we have to define ourselves,i have nothing left to prove.

sorry im v.p*ssed you see i stil think typical non conformists r just paranoid,but rightly so. i just wanted to be someone else,now i am.im f*cked.

To rebel we need someting to rebel against, it seems nowadays antipathy and realisation of how hard the task to change things actually is, prevail.

Rebellion against conformity is different from rebelling against what conformists actually conform to. Rebelling against conformity is pointless, that to me signifies rebelling against a collective body who believe the same thing, or have been indoctrinated to do so simlpy for the cause of rebelling. I think I'm right in believeing that you want to debate rebelling against society, the way it governs our lives/issues that need to be rectified etc and not actually the act of conformity itself.

What's really funny is when you hear people calling themselves freaks, and you ask them why and they say "because i wear black and like slipknot!"

Yes dearie, you're a freak. But you're exactly the same as all the other freaks...

My point exactly

Rebellion is such a pointless topic. People only rebel to look cool. As many of you have said, its like "Yeah, im a rebel, just like all the others". yeah, go you. Every person is different, no two people are the same, however every person shares atleast one trait with one other person. The only way to truly rebel is to create some completely new character trait that has never been seen before. An interesting analogy is of a bead necklace: you can create one that looks entirely different from any other by the different combinations of beads that you use, but in the end everyone has to use beads, cause there is no other option. In the end its just a necklace, just like everyone elses.
Personally i feel rebellion is just pointless, cause it defeats itself. Just be yourself, and you'll find your unique combination of attributes, and as a result you will be rebelling against something. (I went back and added bits in and changes my mind half way through about stuff, so if it doesnt make sense, but thats not important. should you complain about the lack of sense, your either trying to be cool by rebelling against what i say, or are just trying to annoy me, in which case your an idiot)

Jo, your an a*se

hey i just saw that! That is not an intellectual answer and I have an a*se, I am not one

So i think you'll find that sound in your ears is the gentle music of the "ner ner de ner ner"
