IDENTITIES WHEN THEY BECOME THEORIES

This identity is primarily for our identification and often leads to discrimination. And harmony in our community becomes even more dangerous for peace and stability when it turns into ideology. We don't even realize when our identity becomes superior and we begin to think of ourselves as superior to others.

Let's take a look at how we think and what factors play a role in our thinking. If the reality of two human beings is different from each other, their experiences are different. If they have not received the same love, compassion, acceptance in life, their important and unimportant, good and bad ideas are different from each other, then how can they reach the same conclusion. Their understanding of facts, beliefs, claims and opinions may differ from one another.

The whole problem is that we don't allow other people to have their own opinions and ideas. We believe that the conclusions we have drawn are final and should be acknowledged by all. Here intolerance is rooted in society and extremist attitudes flourish. We all keep telling each other that extremism is a bad thing. Society must be protected from extremism. The question is what is extremism?

Extremism is the name of thinking in which we consider our opinions, ideas and facts as the ultimate truth, And begin to misunderstand the opinions, ideas and beliefs of others. A sign of extremism is that we refuse to recognize the right of others to be free to practice their ideas and beliefs according to their own consciousness, their own knowledge and their own conscience. Extremism is the name given to the idea that we want to force others to be like us.

We are surrounded by people of different views and identities. We often try to make them look like ourselves and have no identity of their own. This is the moment when our attitude, leaving the path of thought and understanding, turns into coercion and bullying. If someone doesn't take our word for it, we try to persuade them. We have a culture of debate rather than dialogue. The purpose of discussion is to compete and defeat each other; while the purpose of dialogue is to try to understand each other's point of view with an open mind and heart and to find the best solution for all.

Can good and useful goals be achieved through violence? The answer to this question is very simple.

If our motives are good, why don't we express our point of view openly, in public and within the law, instead of resorting to violence? The majority of human beings are not evil and conspiratorial. If our point of view is fair, people will support us. Social cooperation is the most important means of achieving justice through dialogue. The perpetrators never have the courage to acknowledge their actions, attitudes and methods at all levels.

People who torture within the walls of the house do not come to their streets and admit that they tortured anyone. When powerful people use violence in the streets, they turn away from the local administration. Openly tortured rooms based on influence in their area declare their innocence by swearing in court on charges of torture. Oppressive governments resort to public violence at the expense of state resources but refrain from supporting violence in front of the international community.
