Basically, we were hoping that we would never have to write articles like this again. We actually had something else prepared for yesterday (today). But then it didn’t seem appropriate.
1. The Information
As we have already written here, the war is about banning our free speech. But it is more than that. On this past anniversary. Someone once said that the most interesting thing about war is information. On the other hand, we humans tend to follow simple (sometimes not so simple, but emotionally very obvious) descriptions of new experiences. Interestingly, we also tend to take sides without remembering the context of the outbreak.
2. Contexts
It would be too easy to say that this creates simpler descriptions. We create ones that we are convinced are better for us. In one conflict or another. Since truth is always what we imagine it to be, our beliefs appear to be true. Contexts are no longer perceived. And some then show what…. ?
3. The Information
This is not about reassembling information. Nor is it about setting things right. Others are responsible for that. It’s perhaps more about ending heated debates (it’s amazing that we debate about right and wrong instead of finding out about the fate of the abductees). To go through the whole story again and make sure that we know what happened a year ago. And if this story started a year ago or not. Or maybe thousands of years ago. Like all wars.
