People miss guts in this time episode. All feel as courageous to want to join the table, join the discussion and contribute their ideas, but when it comes down to standing out, standing by one's own ideas, risking a head for it and speaking up, defending it, then most of them play the cowards and hide behind the bush. Have a birthday party to organize. A tree to plant. A household shopping to do. Hold back. Try to satisfy the zeitgeist's picture of a good public image. And, above all, try to not to be a leader. Try not to be someone who inspires others, but just who staccatoes down its arguments like a record stuck on replay and who could be stolen from a factory which produces these guys from a mass mold.

Being defines consciousness. People don't just pop up and do something out of blue. They do whatever the environment dictates. Some are more progressive in their thinking but very few. The society as a whole does what what economic conditions predetermine them to do.

Yeah, I know but the late GDR as well as Soviet Union at the point had capitalism system restored and petty-bourgeois mentality prevailed when people do not think in terms of society but rather like individualists.

Yeah, I agree, lots of people prefer to sit and wait till someone does it for them. And on top, they dare to criticize like some mother-f-en spectators.
