In a nation of frightened dullards there is a sorry shortage of outlaws, and those few who make the grade are always welcome:
In Hunter S. Thompson's "Hell's Angels," he reflects on the state of society, suggesting that it is filled with fear and conformity. He describes a culture where people's lack of boldness and individuality leaves them feeling dull and uninspired. This environment leads to a scarcity of genuine rebels who defy societal norms and embrace their own paths.
Thompson conveys a sense of admiration for those few outlaws who manage to stand out in such a climate. Their presence is not only needed but celebrated, as they represent freedom, adventure, and a break from the mundane. Through his observations, Thompson underscores the importance of challenging the status quo and the value of those who choose to live authentically, regardless of societal expectations.
