Fanatics are fighting for an
ideology which logically speaking is highly questionable that it defies social
norms on morality and ethics. Thus, it is dangerous to have this people who
have fought on false ideals.
INTRODUCTION
The main discussion regarding
this matter was not about idolatry, workplace ethics, religious values or
anything that is indeed considered as social norms. This was more on people
fighting for wrong ideas, logical fallacies, short-sighted anomalies, and more
of what is considered ideologically junk.
Fanatics in such a matter refer
to the groups of people supporting an individual or worshiping an individual
that clearly equates to as cult. This was different to religion wherein good
moral values are promoted and people have the right to question their beliefs
where the theologians seek to answer their thoughts. And also on this matter, religions
of today equate more to peace and love between people, where cults were gone
out of equation. However, this discussion was not on religious matters. For the
main feature of the topic refers to those people who choose to have their minds
closed and instead follow their idolized stars, good or bad, without
questioning.
In the discussion, we will
discuss as to the root cause of the fanaticism, its equivalence to hypnosis and
how to resolve these problems.
Close-minded fanatics are like sleepwalkers. Misguided. |
ROOT
CAUSE
The root cause of fanaticism
may vary on the spectrum of life each and every person may face. Either they
face the harshest of life, or does not have the opportunity to show up their
potentials is indeed making them desperate enough to be a fanatic of things,
not to mention that their level of thinking and logical knowledge of things is
insufficient to see the clear picture and instead believing on the reverted
ideologies regardless of its grave mistakes.
Being desperate is one thing,
but is insufficient enough to act up as a radical and make extremely crazy
things that are unacceptable to social norms, especially if one has a sound
mind. Having the insufficient knowledge is another thing, but this thing on
itself is indeed dangerous enough that even in not so desperate circumstances,
this was still dangerous. It was as if their minds are specifically designed to
listen and see things they really wanted to hear and see, and disregard some
other things that is not in accordance to their thinking where all of which
attributes to insufficient knowledge where rationality was not the discussion
throughout the childhood days. One cannot blame for kids for have no interest
on knowledgeable things, for they wanted to have their colorful, playful days
complete. But too much of this things, or any things, work and study do apply,
may hamper the learning ability of the child where, the insufficient knowledge
do attribute that some time in the future, half-baked knowledge, regardless of
being desperate or not, is deemed dangerous.
The point of this thing is that
one’s present actions may reflect the results in the near future. And all of
it, radicalization, fanaticism and more will be prevented with sufficient knowledge
and as well having people understand between real and fake.
AS
RELATED TO HYPNOSIS
This is the psychological
spectrum of fanaticism where people were manipulated subliminally, without them
noticed, ending up believing they wanted to believe, even though it was morally
wrong. No questions asked.
In this matter, these were
inter-correlated one after the other citing that a half-baked mind and desperate
thinking simple made these people simply manipulated to do bad things, pretty
bad things. And they have no doubt questioned its credibility. They were just
up for grabs, thinking that it will benefited on the false hopes feeding up all
thanks to the root causes that made up what they have become. Talents never
tapped, thinking and acting like a zombie. Such attributes will definitely
never get noticed by those who are under such influence by others. Instead they
will do more and they tend to get satisfy to the things they believe will help
them where in fact it will not help at all. Throw them realities and they tend
to throw argumentum ad hominems to the messenger and not the message in itself.
They tend to believe at questionable sources rather than the credible ones.
Such is a dangerous attribute. All of which is related to a person hypnotized.
Overall, hypnosis and
fanaticism, although they have distinct differences, will have interconnections
once such circumstances arise. And such thinking of the people, psychologically
wise, once molded wrongly, is indeed dangerous to see.
SOLUTION
The very obvious and as well
the most effective solution is to convince them and feed them with right
knowledge. Albeit the difficulties, a friend or two and as well as some
relatives close to that person is enough to have this individual’s mind
changed.
And it comes with several
difficulties. One of which is that such person at first will resist any
informative ideas coming from relatives or even third-party persons and insist
that their ideas were right. There was nothing wrong to fight to such an ideal.
However, if it was the wrong ones, it is as well not tolerated as far as social
norms are concerned. So, in such a case, it all needs is one’s power of
persuasion, preferably coming from the ones close to that person, in such a
case that wrong ideals in some way can be corrected and realities getting
swallowed up. So that in such a case, a challenge can be brought up and solve
it legally and in accordingly with social norms where all of which without
influence, and more of self-motivation and proper guidance. Thus, such
individual will play a key part on the society’s improvement and if he was
fighting for ideals, it was indeed the right ones all in the mere case of
social justice and proper mindset that makes such person productive.
In this case, a person will be
his or her better version than the one who is easily influenced. This
individual fights for rightly things, free from other’s manipulation of minds
and is the catalyst of the betterment in the society. Somewhat that is
commendable from the workplace to the respective homes.
