Hi Michał, I agree, I too saw characters obviously just trying to blend in and be liked by others. I think it’s a really interesting topic that people can conform to others and even go along with their ideas and beliefs, but because of their need of being liked and accepted, not because they truly internalise others’ views. But it can be tricky — we can conform to the right cause, but we can as well go along with something bad, vile, simply not right, only because we want to be a part of the group. I believe that’s why it’s important to always think everything through, even if what we analyze seems like a good option at first sight.
