Why do humans always want to make other people do things their way? Whether it is what religion to practice or form of government, humans cannot leave each other alone. Societies want other societies to think the same as they do? This question interests me. I really cannot formulate a solution to this problem. Maybe if I studied the human psyche, or even better, the animal psyche, I would be able to comprehend our actions.
The United States wants to spread democracy all over the world and I'm fine with that. But Americans don't understand that races, ethnicity, etc. do not appreciate things forced upon them. Iranians are one of those races. Iranians, hate being told what to do. It just doesn't work like that for them.
I read this all the time in history books. White supremacy started because Darwin made that bullshit about evolution. Whites (Europeans and Americans) thought for reason they were better than the rest of the world. Yet they are too ignorant and hypocritical to know that 3000 years ago civilizations were flourishing in India, Iraq, Persia, China, and Egypt. Where were the Europeans? I think they were still in the caveman mode.
I hope I am not sounding too emotional or showing hatred. I'm just trying to be honest. The reason why Westerners were able to flex their ideas and society to the rest of the world was due to gunpowder. The one thing that caught the imagination of Westerners, blowing things up. I find it ironic that the first cannons were church bells laying on their sides. While the Chinese invented gunpowder for fireworks, the second it reached the west some idiot said "hey, we can kill with this thing."
During all this reasoning in my brain, something odd occurred to me. Children! Why are children overlooked? The one person you have the ability to teach your ways, your beliefs, what you see in life is your child. Think about it. A baby is born, wiped clean nothing in the brain except a couple of natural instincts and father and mother's genes. You have the ability to shape this baby into an angel or demon. The baby can learn to be obedient and thoughtful or irrational and rude. It's all up to the parents. But what are the parents doing? They are too busy thinking how to make the rest of the world think while the younger generations in their own, native, indigenous country rot. Being 18, we might not have children until later on in our lives, but I'd like everyone who reads this blog to remember that the one chance you have for someone to think the way you want them to think is your child. Take advantage of it.
