That is an illogical statement. If people group themselves according to class they just lost a part of their individuality. They are now a member of the herd.
not necessarily: a person is a member of a "class"; it helps identify who that person is. In that sense, it promote individuality; and, even if it were true, how does one's "grouping" oneself in a class make one a part of the "herd"? Don't a person still have himself? And, what about the bonds built? Are there not advantages to acknowledging class, such as a sense of comraderie? Also, taken in the context of comparing "class" to "no class" society, i think it is an ok statement, in that a classeless society promotes the herd mentality more than a class society would, so a class society promotes individuality more than a classless society would.
