I spent over six years and tens of thousands of dollars studying at university to, among many other things, learn how to critique and question. I toyed with, tested and then constructed an ethical framework and slowly carved out a worldview that serves me to this day. I like to think of those years as the years that I created my own 'canon', for I am the product of the books that I have read.
On gaining employment with a large bureaucratic organisation I have found that the skills of questioning and the art of argumentation for ethical ends are generally undesired. I am expected to accept that the dysfunction is as inherent to the system as is the indoctrination.
I'm not sure whether to feel insulted or angry. Perhaps it is both.
