#1 Identity Undefined
I understand the purpose of the writing "Summary: Theory for Beginners" is to give the audience an insightful look into our society, and how it has shaped our way of perceiving the world around us. However, a pessimistic tone has been set which causes the reader to doubt whether their thoughts and actions are truly their own, or if it's an implementation of society's rules and expectations. I agree in some aspects that the knowledge of our world is limited to the sometimes perverted framing of information fed to us through media, but i feel in order to survive in this world we need to trust in one another at least to an extent. I've had strangers prepare my food in restaurants, and strangers have worked on my car. It's mutual trust that i'm going to get a safe service, and they're going to get paid. In the end it's all about survival. We trust in others because we have to. We follow societies rules and expectations because it makes survival much easier for us.
