Conformity, as a principle and purpose in life, is seen concretely as a passion for fashion, which is to say continual pointless change.
Burke said this in the 1790’s, but I continue to believe it worthwhile to repeat the obvious, and to continue to try to say it better, with the ideal being more meaning in fewer words.
Edit for context: Im listening to the Dandy Warhols. They cannot stop me. They have a song with a lyric close to “ I can’t believe you are doing heroin because it is so passe.”
