So the only thing which a Nobody owns, to the perspective of society, is a body. And the assumption in terms is that they don't even own that.

Now even if I own what you term society, just like I own a dog house, and a bag of doggy food, and even if I own multiple bodies across history, or even if I just own the one you see before you, my interests are much closer to skin deep than yours are.

A cop knows that plenty of people out there will resort to physical force to assert their motivations. This is the bottom line of the position he or she is in, bite or be bitten.

Or so the assumption goes.

Like our dog analogy, the police perspective is that they at some level will end up with the upper hand. This is the default judgement of the average human if you closely consider it.

"Let the system continue that I may survive, more or less..."



While society may seem permanent to the average observer, it is merely because they are the end results of each other. This is why on the newcasts they show you shiny buildings. And toys and chit like the Space Shuttle. Every horse needs blinders.

The effect of meeting an actual avowed Nobody is basically ego death for your average chit-collector. The completely useful purposeful ego-death you might encounter magicians and hypnotists. the kind that taps directly into the subconscious mind.

So what kind of person breaks the fourth wall, and drags your hidden motivations into the glaring light of day.

In the light of the police officer I use as an example. What does Officer Friendly's uniform force him to do, and why is it sold to him as a source of pride?
