fear to conform...

I kind of feel like that society/culture is less afraid than ever to conform. While outwardly perhaps there is more rebellion against the norms and categories, the effect of mass communication, and increased subtlety in propoganda, I see all people fitting into broad/indistinguishable groups on the macro-level. For me I see the need to establish only two categories of people. The 99.9% that suck, and the .1% that don't. Yet.
