Aspiration
Ideals
Select Small Group
(Passionarism + Negative Outlook + Synoptic Lens)
Group Description
The ideal is the result of an absolutizing simplification associated with the leveling of individual defects. The real world is imperfect, hence orientation towards the ideal inevitably leads to disappointment and disillusionment. They set distant, fundamentally unachievable goals, and therefore suffer.
