As human beings, our interests, philosophies, politics, etc, yes.

As workers in a job, not so much. The analogy works in that scenario. We all conform, to varying degrees, to the groups that we join. Especially when that group is your full time employ, where you spend most of your time and gain most of your money.

There’s a HBO show called The Wire that is amazing, and I would recommend to anyone to watch, but particularly to yourself because “Simon has said that despite its framing as a crime drama, the show is “really about the American city, and about how we live together. It’s about how institutions have an effect on individuals. Whether one is a cop, a longshoreman, a drug dealer, a politician, a judge or a lawyer, all are ultimately compromised and must contend with whatever institution to which they are committed.”[5]”

Warning: it is slow paced, it’s more like reading a book on your screen than watching a traditional TV show, but it’s worth it

This article is comedy gold! I particularly enjoyed the list of straight pride events in the past, such big successes!

They’ve poisoned and clear-felled and strip-mined this earth
Made a cess pit of the paradise that was ours by birth
They’ve raped and they’ve burned and they’ve plundered our world
Our banner of resistance will now be unfurled

We’re nailing our colours right up to the mast
The sands of time are running out fast
To stop the nutters destroying our home
Kidnapped from our children from whom it’s on loan

Enough is enough is enough of their greed
Mass eco-defence is what the earth needs
Terra-ist action all over the land
To stop the lunacy the rich have got planned

E.L.F. strike in the dead of night
See the bulldozers are burning bright
Construction area totally trashed
Earth-rape machinery utterly smashed

Some might say that we’re too “extreme”
But all we want is air and water that’s clean
And a green earth not a desert is what we need Don’t let them sacrifice it on their altar of greed

Rise up and conquer your fear
They can be stopped like Jose-Maria
Our world a toxic slag-heap they will make
So take whatever action you feel it’s right to take

It’s up to you it’s up to me to make a stand
Our generation holds it’s future in it’s hands
Time to fight back let them do their worst
Green anarchy in action - put the earth first!
