taken individual-differences medicine
Socialism , whether it's the 'soft tyranny' of the EuroAmerican management state or the murderously repressive forms taken by Hitler , Stalin , Mao , or Pol Pot, is all about disindividuation , a steady, relentless erasure of the individual differences among us, everything that makes us who we are.

No alternatives allowed, no choices, no individualism , no individuality , and ultimately, no individuation . L. Neil Smith
