reluctant conformist

One who reluctantly decides to adhere to societal or commercial norms in order to further their own , family or associates ends.

One who suppresses their yearning for self determination, freedom or rebellious nature in order to survive .

EG. You may join a government or military department but you will have to conform to a strict code of behavior. In return you get job security , maybe even job satisfaction and a certain societal standing.

Reluctant conformists can sometimes being a prime example of joining a system in order to change it from the inside. Often times the most pathetic way to bring about change.

“I don’t think young Harrison is cut out for a career in this company I don’t feel as though he buys into our systems and methods entirely.”

“…. Yeah - it seems to me that he is struggling within a straight jacket of conformity in his current role – he’s a real reluctant conformist”
