Backwards Thinking

By Aj James

What A Shame In This Day And Age

It seems that no matter how much we evolve and how much we learn, that insidious generalizations still take place.

Every person that makes these unfortunate summations doesn't realize the impact these assumption have on the strength of societal cohesion and peace.

Racism, sexism and the disrespect of individual rights form an unholy trinity of ignorance that actually forces the evolution of thinking backwards.
This backwards thinking can be anywhere from mildly harmful to downright murderous in effect and the repercussions are plain to see for all and yet nothing changes - Why?

Social Pressure

As much good as social pressure can do, it can also have the opposite effect as people squander good sense and courtesies in order to conform to the beliefs of those who have authority over them.

This unfortunate pattern can have generational flow on effects that seem to cause nothing but the destruction of civil liberties and any thought of peace itself.

If only acceptance and tolerance were held in the same regard as illogical patriotisms and misconstrued loyalties.

Maybe we can all contribute to using our own social pressure to make those who practice such intolerance conform to peaceful sensibilities and we can escape the clutches of backwards thinking and the dark ages that define it for good.

Tolerance, Acceptance And Respect

These are principles that exist with pride in a civilized society and are lauded for their effects.

There are many things in society that are hotly debated, many have very similar people with opposing points of view, however if certain grounded methods of respectful democratic implementation are accepted then it is altogether possible that the method in which these disagreements will be more important than the subject of debate itself.
