Anomie is a sense of defeatism, and it is one of the most common ailments infecting the West. Interesting both the right and left are infected. There is a pervading sense of hopelessness sweeping our people and our institutions, as if nothing can be done, as if the battle is already lost. We have been conditioned to think of ourselves as victims and to rely on the state to rescue us. It is the state that is the problem and the more we depend on the state the more dependent and hopeless we will become.
