How do you feel about the words solidarity and coopetition?
I like both concepts because everyone is working towards a common goal but boundaries are set within the group and individuality is still acknowledged and appreciated
Individuality will always exist it's more about what freedom will you have to Express your individuality in your culture. Culture is what binds people together yet people will always have different temperaments, attitudes and experiences that lean them toward different interests and expressions of self

That's true. Thinking about it, each piece that makes a car is sized and shaped in a way that allow it to fit, build in, move with the others. Atoms connects to each other with their elementary particles to form a more complex structure. Colors work in harmony to create the whole picture.The assumes tacit acceptance by each of the component parts as to their purpose, and that every ball-bearing doesn't believe that they can one day be the steering wheel.
Great question, great thread.
Is it the same when it comes to people though?
Citizens of a nation, individuals of a people rarely all agree on which direction their respective ensemble should take, or what should be their role in it.The structure still stands though. If I had to give a hot take I'd say it might be thanks to two things:
1) a common culture
2) a system that permeates society and is agreed on de facto, even if the individuals don't necessarily agree on its terms (for example, capitalism, citizenship and laws of the nation-state, etc)

A nation-state will try their best to develop built-in safeguards for people rebelling against their assigned roles. It will seek to direct culture via media, allow religions to take root to encourage some kind of (spiritual) conformity, push various versions of capitalist thought, a host of patchwork opiates.
All of those vastly underestimate just how unruly humanity can be, even at the most unconscious level. Humanity will rebel simply because it can.

I think that they are more realistic and practical terms.
Easy to repeat terms like "unity" or the slogans/pet phrases of internet celebs, but when people step back and think for themselves.....they realize that those are just slogans.

They got me working from home today and they asking me questions about teamwork and unity.
You are articulated the stuff I'm reading right now perfectly. It all sounds generic and like slogans.

There isn't any real unity in this age but there is plenty of uniformity.
Look around, people copy whats hot and think its their style when in reality they're just drones who've adopted personas to fit in to what society (aka corporate interests made flesh) expects. People spit out trite phrases and go through the motions but none of their moves are natural as they are strangers to themselves.
Thats why you see things like:
Thats your unity except it comes from people attempting to express their "individuality" which just proves its conformity in disguise, not to mention how 99% of people have personalities/inner worlds that function very similar to others as they've been molded by the same system that slowly sanded off their quirks to create generic employees that can easily be trained and replaced.
Its a dirty game.

I think that the only way for effective progression is to have both unity and uniformity amongst individuals. The problem is that we have individuals who want control over the entire unit/uniform instead “staying in their lane.”
To piggyback off of the car part analogy, each part of the car plays its role. The battery doesn’t try to make the car change directions. It simply provides power to the electrical systems. Individuals needs to function in their own role for the sake of the entire unit. We love power so much that we shirk the value of our individuality for the sake of control and fame.

No, there is a reason why the military has uniforms, regulated haircut, similar basic training across all branches.
