When is obligatory to be tolerant with intolerants.
Globalized "Torquemadness".
Today, to write about some themes, seem a delicate job. There are themes that became to be “taboo” for whom want to give an opinion over these themes; almost lie if would be necessary to obtain a public authorization –for not call it “another’s”- to be able to say, with some temerity, a point of view, an opinion that not go with fashion’s thinks flow. And then, so avoid to be voraciously destroyed for the “correct politically” paladins, the truth’s masters, judges of, not only what can to be, but even thought-out.
It’s ironic, but who show off that attitude today, are the same people that many decades ago, was victims of resembling conduct from people they thought to be truth’s owners or of another’s destiny, themselves. Because this conduct isn’t new, of course. In ancient times, this was ones of prominent characteristics of whoms had the job to impose the order, what not was another thing, at that time, than to do and to think what said the authority. As can be see, the situation has no change so much, only had been spread who believe themselves with “authority”. From monarchs, hierarchs, presidents and leaders, long time ago, to anyone that have access to internet today.
We should therefore claim, in the name of tolerance, the right not tolerate the intolerant.
Karl Popper, The Open Society and Its Enemies.
Whit the appears of communications and information globalization, the stroke of the hammer, the sentences, not only are imparted by the authority now; the “power” of accuse was globalized too, and yes, to discriminate whom not be “only tolerant”, but until those who that are not almost a devotees of what the fashion flow dictates. What, like mentioned before, it’s dictated by whom few time ago was victims of same behave. ¿Revenge? Only that they not accept to be doing the same, since the consequences, it’s true, are not equals. Probably nobody go to jail, nor be execrated of local society. Only would have a tag after a tsunami of offence, expletives, lewdnesses then, skewered by vile mob (yes, granny’s words).
Between these themes, there are what encounter into “correct politically” category, that was subdivided in others topics. Religions themes too and, even though seem lie, themes into the world of science. This is like would exist a “to give an opinion” privilege. Privilege because, seemingly, not is for anyone. And this situation is founded in all areas of these categories. This will see it just a little more detailed, without go to much deeper.
