Dear Individuals,

In premodern times, people tied who they were almost completely to the group they belonged to. Peasants were peasants. Kings were kings. But then something crazy happened: we discovered the individual. Humans came up with the scientific method, they exchanged goods across the globe, and they learned to read and write. When this happened, people stopped thinking of themselves as only members of a group and began thinking of themselves as human individuals. And the world became a much better place because of it.

There is an urge to take us back to a place where our group identity is more important than our individuality. Fight against it. 

Sincerely,

Mr. Heimbuck
