Uniqueness, Democracy, and Social Integration

It is very necessary and important, to try to understand the nature of modern democratic society, and the way that it treats people who are very unique, as the whole matter of individual and human uniqueness and social integration, is a very important one. Of course, everyone is potentially unique, but some people are very unique, and in a way that differs from very mediocre, very ignorant, and very so-called mainstream society.

There’s a very strange and slightly complex way, that democratic societies treat their citizens, who are very unique, as democracies do not try and socially integrate very unique individuals and people. Democratic societies, both paradoxically persecute, discriminate, mistreat, and superiorise people who are very unique, marginalising and socially isolating them, and then expecting them to adapt or adjust, within that marginalisation and social isolation. This is a total contradiction about so-called democratic societies, and one that in itself can create social and psychological problems, which democratic societies refuse or assume that they are unable to solve.

The somewhat paranoid, and very irrational fear, of socially integrating very unique people, in democratic societies, to a great extent, stems from democratic societies and governments fear of losing the very controlling, very repressive, and very dull ignorance and mediocrity, which is seen by democratic societies as psychologically healthy and as normality.

Whilst I am in no way, in favour of totalitarian societies or political dictatorships, I also have some criticisms of so-called democratic societies, not least, because democracy is never something that pre-exists, within any society or government, because democracy is actually something which has to be continuously created and progressed, through participation and political, institutional, and social change.

The other main objection, I have to so-called democracies, is that democratic societies and systems, sometimes justify very totalitarian behaviours and activities, such as illegal and totalitarian threats of incarceration, against people like psychiatric-diagnosed people, who are not mentally unwell and have committed no crime - on the grounds that they are "democracies", and so they feel justified that they should be allowed to do this to individuals and people, because they are "democracies" anyway, and so in their eyes and thinking, they should be allowed to get away with totalitarian policies, behaviours, and activities - against the very unique, less powerful, and less wealthy individuals and people in society.
