Anti-Authority

Anti-authority is an attitude or mindset that challenges or questions established rules, authority figures, or traditions. Individuals with this perspective believe in thinking independently and may resist commands or regulations they perceive as unfair, unnecessary, or oppressive. It’s often rooted in a desire for personal freedom, fairness, or social change. While healthy skepticism can promote critical thinking, excessive anti-authority tendencies can lead to conflicts or disregard for important safety standards. Overall, it reflects a preference for personal judgment over unquestioning obedience to authority.
