Name it! Roll the conflict

Huh, its like grabbing your coffee in the morning and — out of a blue — hearing some tragical news that somewhere people were killed. Shock, sad, confused while trying to take a first sip of coffee,…”sooo um, how did it happened?”pop-up in between your thoughts. Well, pity that our sympathy is often lasts till we switch to another channel — literally, using a remote control:

“That, like, sucks. Oh yeah, by the way there is a good game on a sport channel to watch!”

— so yea, the news about some tragic that happened in thousand miles away not kicking the real care feeling towards the victims, but simply enough to slide-on clip of one-side idea who is bad and good guy in this story…dah, using specific key words: terrorist, separatist, zionist, communist, nazi…words that have become amalgamated in a blab of confusion.

In the mean time the trick is — YOU NAME IT… stick to the particular narrative…and further folk’s infantilism will do the rest, going with “don’t complicate me, tell me who’s bad and who’s good coz I’m gotta move on and watch sports and so whatever”. 

first is to…

aim for Sympathy

So far, any motive should involve “touching” content, something that majority could feel sympathy for, like killing the civilians, raping women, slaughtering kids…Sticking more and more gruesome text like “decapitating babies’s heads”, “ripping open pregnant women”… – ugh mind-boggling awful things, usually the true acts that happened at different times in different places during genocide. The text that comes with standard connotation – “those horrendous acts were planned and those who did that should be called no other than terrorist”. Sounds familiar? The use of such hate-serve words is so frivolous nowadays, especially when care upon to mock the county of the conflict. Well, the strong word like “terrorist” comes up whenever there is unprecedented unlawful acts like an attack on civilians, innocent (unarmed) people to bring the feeling of sudden fear, awakening from daily routine to get that patriotic bond within the nation. And also, counting on fear to face this bad-guys country afterwards,… “if we wont stop them, next will be you” running slogans.

then do…

Seek for pardon:"oh yeah they must be bad then"!

Using terminology that linked to disgust, which takes its form in rats, bags, and so forth, any kind of insect that lives in dirt, spread diseases, and said to be eliminated for the sake of world cleansing, to rail a healthy settings for ‘righteous’ species. Weeasy breezy: call someone a rat and everyone would ‘feel ya’ the need or act of killing ‘them’ (in the stages of genocide).  Not going too deep into this subject but just to chip-in the point how stereotypes are very subjective, hypercritical, and gradually persuasive for any duped idea.

and facing…

Why, how, what's really happened?

No one would care much for investigation process when the big conflict just has started. Any duped idea seems so reasonable at first…the crucial evidences of why, how, and who is really responsible for what was done is revealed after a while,… um decades if not centuries, involving a long lasting investigation that constantly interrupted by new atrocities, mounting more conflict lines that erasing previous cases of discord.  

After all, the course of conflicts and disagreements is now looked like a standard list of actions, a question of memory in the future: what would be remembered depends on the storyteller.
