Argumentative Essay On Non Conformity

723 Words2 Pages

Have you ever been happy trying to fit in? Whenever you try to fit in, you're always trying to make yourself happy by fitting in but they're actually not being themselves so they usually feel uncomfortable and unhappy mostly all the time. When I see the video of social experiments of conformity and it only takes about 4 people to conform somebody to do the wrong thing. There’s a few people that do not fall for it; usually the people who do not fall for conformity they are non conformist. If we didn’t have nonconformist this world would be all the same nobody would create anything because nobody would think out the box. Sometimes I see people as a flock of birds that all go one way. I believe people should not care about being judged because …show more content…

The people who are conformist usually look at non conformist as weird. I believe that the conformists are the weird people because they all want to be the same so they don't get judged. Well, enough talking about conformists the non conformists are the people to talk about. They usually do not care about what the other people say they just appreciate this world by just being themselves because they know that they are not going to be on this world forever. So when they past they did not leave anything behind so they lived in this world, not caring about what anybody said so they lived being happy and themselves.

Furthermore, what is there to live if you are not truly happy by trying to be the same as everybody else. Some people who are conformist are truly not happy. The non conformist live their lives by not leaving anything behind and being themselves by not doing the same as other people. Conformists are people who are judging everybody who are not the same as them. That is why there is hardly any people who are non conformist because of the pressure that is put on them if they do not do the same.

Ultimately, you should think what you should do. The more people that are non conformist are the people who are happy and successful. So when you fit in high school by following the cool kids the kids who are usually called weird are gonna

    Moving away from books, there is an even bigger amount of articles explaining conformity.

    Everybody wants to be accepted, yet society is not so forgiving. It bends you and changes you until you are like everyone else. Society depends on conformity and it forces it upon people. In Emerson's Self Reliance, he says "Society is a joint stock company, in which the members agree, for the better securing of his bread to each shareholder, to surrender the liberty and culture of the eater." People are willing to sacrifice their own hopes and freedoms just to get the bread to survive. Although the society that we are living in is different than the one the Emerson's essay, the idea of fitting in still exists today. Although society and our minds make us think a certain way, we should always trust our better judgment instead of just conforming to society.

    "The average man is a conformist, accepting miseries and disasters with the stoicism of a cow standing in the rain." Colin Wilson was a prominent philosopher and his quote has the view that sometimes you just have to let life take its course and there is nothing else you can do about it. I would agree with his views and I have witnessed how others handle certain situations. The one thing I had witnessed the most was that people tend to not try and fix something that has already taken place, I feel as humans we tend to try and forget what happens and learn to live with the situation. The definition of a conformist is a person who conforms to accepted behavior or established practices. My point being that not only do we experience it, but also in movies when a tragedy occurs the characaters of that movie have to learn how to cope with life. I have also
