43. Individuals

hate and are violent on an individual level. Groups hate and are violent on a group level. What we do on the individual level becomes what is done on the group level. For example, Erich Fromm's "The Sane Society" examines how a society with the individual pathologies of child neglect and abuse, substance abuse, certain mental illnesses, and violent crime are sick societies. As a retired psychiatric social worker who worked with those issues, I can say that the "little stuff" and the "big stuff" are much the same thing.
