BRITAIN – Satirical News

New philosophical thinking is on the rise in Great Britain. Not only in academic circles, but more widely. Proponents of this trend are called Unmandatorians.

In fact, the way of thinking mentioned in the title is of course not new by any means, says Susan Thinkenton. She has lectured on the subject “Guidelines to be Unmandatory”.

According to Thinkenton, it is not so easy to comprehent that doing something we think mandatory, does not really be mandatory at all. So, she likes to broaden people's minds to understand when mandatory is really mandatory and when it is not.

Susan Thinkenton is also a skilled writer. The works she has written so far:
- Rise of Unmandatorians
- Is it Really Mandatory to be You
- Unmandatorians in the Works
- Unmandatorians Eating in the Mall
- Unmandatorians Wondering if They are Mandatory

“Promoters of the idea emphasize that being involved in the way of thinking is voluntary, not mandatory”, says Susan Thinkenton.

The funny story above is a satire or parody. It is entirely fictitious.
