 That's a tactic of war. You know, you take something that somebody on the other side said, you take it out of context, you blow it up to be totally outrageous, you provoke outrage about it, indignation about it, you use it as a weapon. That's everybody does that on every side. And it becomes, you know, so it's a way to dehumanize the enemy, basically, like how could they say such a thing? They must be subhuman. By doing that, you are exacerbating the problem. How are we ever going to have a society of compassion, empathy, and trust if you are assiduously working to so distrust and enmity, thinking all the while that you're doing that with the long-term goal of a society of peace and equality and fairness and justice. But using unjust methods to accomplish that, justified by, well, they're on the other side and we're fighting them. So anything we do is justified because we're the good guys. And of course, the other side is doing the same thing. And so imagine how you look to the other side when you're taking their things out of context and painting them to be horrible people. When they themselves, in their corner of the culture, they're not especially horrible people. They watched their neighbor's dog when they went on vacation. They went to the PTA meeting and had a birthday party for their kids and invited the other kids and they were a Cub Scout leader. And they don't find themselves to be evil people. So these caricatures that are constructed from out-of-context quotes and things like that, they seem ridiculous. They make you seem subhuman to them. Because why are you attacking me? Why are you not fully seeing me? And ultimately, I think these tactics are ineffective. They set up a situation where both sides essentially have recourse to the same weaponry, the same armamentarium, and they fight to a standstill. And not a lot changes. And when things do change, it isn't because one side finally defeats and humiliates the other. It's because there is a movement underneath that that makes the fight irrelevant. So I could give some examples like what finally gave wide social acceptance to gay marriage. I think it was the AIDS epidemic where the humanity of these people suffering became visible. Anyway, that could be a long debate actually. But again here, what I'm interested in is what actually serves healing of society and the planet. And these war tactics, they just perpetuate war. Neither side ever gains a decisive advantage over the other. And both contribute to the underlying mind form of all those evil people out there. Contribute to a society of distrust, to a society of us versus them, to a society based on war. No wonder that war lens, that war perspective then gets replicated and projected and applied all over the world. It's a prerequisite almost of war to dehumanize somebody. Then you can bomb them. So I would really encourage anyone who calls himself a peace activist to begin walking and speaking peace themselves in everything they do, especially in social media and political conversation.
