InSUBordination - Wag the dog

Sometimes you might have the feeling that your boss, your government or anybody else is just wrong. To make sure you are right you reflect the pros and cons of a problem. After careful consideration you might have the right or even duty to disobey his decisions. This behaviour would be in accordance with Immanuel Kants demand of "leaving a man's self-caused immaturity." Btw.: Don't take this stuff too serious. It's what I write when I'm pissed.

Having a choice is an outpost of freedom

You think you are free, but are you really free? Without having choices to make you're not.

You can be the freest man in the world. Without having oportunities to do what you want it doesn’t help you anything. The lack of options is as worse as lack of freedom. Meaning you are encased in your contemporary state of existence without a chance to escape. Even if a government or a society pretends to protect your freedom, pretending you are free to go where you want, free to speak up and tell what you think, free to become whatever you want to, this doesn’t count if you don’t have the opportunity to. Then you are doomed to an existence in stasis.

We don’t change our hatered job because we don’t see an alternative. We leave our needs our personality and our demands behind and adopt the demands of the society or employer. We are deprived of the possibility to do or to find what we are born for by fate and the conditions created by the society. We don’t change because we are afraid of loosing our job, because we need the money, because we have bills to pay, because we have a family to support.

We stop fighting for our freedom and we give up what we are. This is the worst prison of all. Remember, nothing in the world worth having comes easy !
