Usually refers to the cultural environment that DOMINATES where one lives. However, one is still a part of society regardless of their stance towards the dominant values of that society. Society includes everybody from CEOs to antiglobalization protester to drug addicts. Whose values dominate tends to depend on which social subgroup has the most POWER.
If you don't like the values that dominate your society, all you can do is stand up, speak out and live the values that you cherish most. My opinion is that it helps little to criticize a society without presenting viable alternative values.

Jane Investor thinks Joe Junkie is a blight on society because he lives in violation of her values. Society will grow by listening to Joe Junkie's inability or unwillingness to fit in more than it will from condemning him.

the terrible state we live in where we are bullied and put down by every little thing we do then people wonder why we cry all the time or have depression and are mute but hey you gotta love it because this is the terrible shit that is our lives we cant escape it unless we change the people
people wonder why 'society' sucks its only because of the people i think that if you change the people you change the society and our karma could come back to us one day because of our society
