Q: Is society a real fact determined by the existence of man, or is it a false concept, a conditioning which exists only because man is asleep? A: Society is not an existential reality. It is created by man because man is asleep, because man is in chaos, because man is not capable of having freedom without turning it into licentiousness*. Man is not capable of having freedom and not taking advantage of it. So it is an artificial—but necessary—creation of man. Because society is artificial, it can be dissolved. Because it was necessary once, it does not mean it has to be necessary forever. Man just has to change those conditions which made it necessary. And it is good that it is not existential, otherwise there would be no way to get rid of it. It is our own manufactured thing. We can destroy it any day we want. * licentiousness [laisenšsnis] noun samopašnost, razuzdanost, neukročenost, nebrzdanost
