To your point about "friends"- I find that most of them rely on the old herd mentality to control each other, using emotion and fear of being "cast out" as their weapons. Those with logic and reason in their character never fall for such primitive mentalities, and thus have fewer "peers" than the rest of the insects that pollute the planet. The one move that the true individual can make that renders him invincible is to remove ego from everything that he does. It's not possible to remove it completely; we are human, after all; but it can be done to the extent that one has almost complete control over his life, with logic and reason as his guides.
Spock (Star Trek) had the right idea.
That is an excellent point, and observation. Yes, over my several years of life I have tried, to the extent of my abilities, to be very objective about decisions rather than relying on emotions or the agenda of the herd. I know that I hold some opinions that were founded, not in objectivity but in early experiences, and these opinions might not be very popular in today's world. But as you said, we're all human.
However, overall I do try to be as objective about things as I can. And a part of that objectivity is that I constantly see the absurdities around me, the fake news, the herd mentality. I guess I just don't have a need to be popular... I'd rather be known as thoughtful and (in the end) right.
