Groupism sucks!!!!!

Indeed, Groupism sucks. I do not understand as to why individuals have to make groups. By doing so, the individuals tend to dominate over their friends. A rigid set of rules ensures that individuals do not do anything that is against the interest of the group. A factor of individual principals is compromised, and the group manages to survive only after certain hard compromises. In the case of small children, it results in their Oath of Friendship being tested over and over again. In the case of Teenagers, it is all a matter of dominance. In today's time, Groupism has being given serious legitamacy by the factor of Liberalization of the economy. Working in Teams is now the in-thing, although i might be the only one who might not agree with this factor.

It is perhaps very hard to gauge as to how individuals can remain adhered to a particular group. For it is very clear from the outset, that Individuality of an individual is compromised for the sake of the group. the very fact that a Group curbs indirectly, what individual says or does makes Groupism very dangerous indeed. If individuals stick to groups, then it creates an atmosphere of suspicion when the individual meets individuals outside of the Group circle. Interactions with other friends not belonging to the inner circle is curbed, and thus relationships sour.

If personal liberty is set aside, then the individuals manage to compromise it by the factor of security and comfort. An individual joins a group because he assumes to be safe from whatever threats he/she might face in the larger context. Whatsoever complexities might be faced by persons can be sorted out if in a group. This point is largely make-believe, and thus concludes to the fact that individuals need groups so that they can have something to fall back on.

Groups can be productive if they can be flexible and more understanding of individuals. But, in a conservative society, groupism indirectly suggests the termination of sociality with other individuals in the same society. In such cases, groups are primarily created so that they can withsatnd the social back talking done by conservative sections of society. Nothing is wrong with that , but unfortunately, it is practiced to the very extreme. Groups tend to go into their shell, and thus terminate all sorts of communication.

When Personal liberty and understanding is at stake, when freedom of movement and thought is restricted, the most important fact for Groupism is that individuals get complete security. The very fact that there is a presence to which individuals can fall back on is why Groupism will flourish and thrive forever. It is indeed a tragedy, for these things can terminate the process of communication, and give rise to the process of Suspicion.
