The real hopeless victims of mental illness are to be found among those who appear to be most normal. "Many of them are normal because they are so well adjusted to our mode of existence, because their human voice has been silenced so early in their lives, that they do not even struggle or suffer or develop symptoms as the neurotic does." They are normal not in what may be called the absolute sense of the word; they are normal only in relation to a profoundly abnormal society. Their perfect adjustment to that abnormal society is a measure of their mental sickness. These millions of abnormally normal people, living without fuss in a society to which, if they were fully human beings, they ought not to be adjusted.

It's social cancer, camouflaging itself as a culture and ideology.

I think instead of social cancer it's actually, absolute unawareness of their world in any real way.

I was like that not so long ago and it's amazing how accurate the phrase "Ignorance is bliss" actually described my world view of just going along for the ride, so fucking clueless.

Ya know, I never actually read that book.

Both Brave New World and Brave New World Revisited are well worth a read. The latter has some very prescient insights into the current state of the world.

They are not, but from the conformist point of view they're identical. "Oh he's doing X, that's insane!"

I vote, I pay my taxes, and I am a law-abiding citizen! What do you think, I'm crazy?

Yeah, kinda...

Those who control the narrative can chose who they will label as sane or insane.

Then there is natural or unnatural. We are all born with instinct to be repulsed by unnatural.

This is why (((they))) are having such a hard time getting everyone to accept degenerates and non humans.

Just remembered someone you know that is a White liberal. You can probably tell that they lack instincts and intuition in all parts of their life, not just when it comes to politics and social issues.

So in today's world sane means repressed instincts, no intuition, waiting for media to tell you what to do, and insane means trusting your instinct and intuition, judging things by what's natural or unnatural.
