IV Good morning
“So you want me to be a part of
society. Hm! But they want to exclude everything that is different!” - “Right,
because it's uncomfortable.” - “Uncomfortable? I am not concerned with them.
Then why don't they want to leave me alone.” - “It's not that simple. Imagine
walking the same route every morning, but every evening someone changes the
bus route, the direction of travel in one-way streets and so on! You'd have
to rediscover it every morning. It's inconvenient. People who are different
are also uncomfortable.” - “Haha, a good example. So, you want to say that
humans are creatures of habit. Or I would call this laziness. And then they
also think that they are better. It doesn't matter whether we are talking
about religious people, conservatives or environmentalists and liberals. The
one who condemns his neighbours because he is homosexual, and the other who
builds his house in the middle of the forest because he loves nature ‘so’ much.”
- “Every group, trend or fashion has its own code. You could also call it
snobbery. Basically there are manners and customs. This becomes morality that
is forced upon us by the people around us. On the other hand, there are principles
that you need to build for yourself. The latter is hard work, putting
together your own values within yourself.” - “If I have understood you
correctly, you want to express that social work actually means to educate
people to have their own thoughts. Is that possible?” - “Let's look at
history a little! From the slave, whose life ended with that of the Pharaoh,
to today's human.” - “All right, it got a little better. But imagine a
company! It can only work if everyone is integrated. If everyone tried to
realise their own views, everything would collapse. You cannot expect people
to behave like real slaves in the workplace, and then use their heads in
private life.” - “You mean that education is not enough?” - “Right! At some
point Marx wrote: ‘The work determines your consciousness.‘ This task is too
big for me. I can influence people, but I cannot change the economic process.”
- “ You don't need that either! With the emerging consciousness, there will
be desires and new needs. Humans will then strive for it by themselves.” - “In
five thousand years!” - “Then you would be out of date for them, like today
Ku Klux Klan.” - “Are there no values or views that are forever valid? For
example Hippocrates or democracy?” - “The democracy of Athens has also
developed further. It is not just the majority that counts, but also human
dignity and the division of state powers.”
