I felt so terrible seeing an albino teenager on a train a while ago. I watched him for about a half hour and the whole time, he kept his head hung between his legs and tried to cover himself with his arms. He lifted his head a grand total of two times but it was only 2 seconds before he put his head down again. Now, the reason for his behaviour could be due to anything, really, but I had a gut feeling it's due to the uninformed/prejudiced/ignorant people in society.
What if ill/harmful feelings were reduced/removed from society somehow? Would people be more forgiving and open-minded if they are surrounded only by such thoughts? Or do you think they serve as a balance to keep things in harmony? As in the yin&yang? Hypothetically, that's all fine and dandy but we all know life isn't perfect. |

i dont think its ever possible for ill feelings to be removed.
not even if you were to wish on a genie or something. its just not possible. same with world peace. people will always want to break away from the norm; people will always think that they're better than others. its the idea of superiority. should society all be unique, or should everybody be the same? bringing about the discussion of communism. i dont think its really balanced, because ill feelings are honestly so immersed in society nowdays, the nicest people involuntarily think of the meanest things sometimes. because they're just used to it. they hear it all the time and their brain just absorbs it. i definitely think it could be reduced. i WISH it would be reduced, cause man, its so irritating hearing people talk down about others like they're sooooooooo much better than them. when we all know they arent. ugghs. |
