Confronting authority peacefully takes a lot of courage and faith

in ungrip •  7 years ago 

Seems like i have nothing and a lot of things to say...we have been taught wrong and ego-centric version of anti-conformism. As only some of the people are capable of doing so, the chosen ones, the ones full of knowledge. However, it is the ordinary people that can be the best options in the times where conformism is a crime. This is because those "ego-centric" heroes only show up in the movies and we keep on waiting for them in our daily lives and they never appear. No hero appeared in case of Rohingya, no hero is planning to. This division between "common people and heros" have ruined heroism for ordinary people so they never speak up..we need to empower the powerless to stand against power..
Kudos to mama bear..

I agree. The hero is actually within each of us. I would also suggest that the savior that lots of people are waiting for is within as well too! Well written!
