How to Handle Fanatism - De-escalation and Documentation
Its true we are experiencing higher levels of discrimination today, with people of all nationalities and genders rising out of oppression and coming into their own there are bound to be fears.
But when fears can't be rationalized and de-escalated by just allowing the natural good experience to over come our past prejudices, some times people and even groups of people will start to catastrophizing their fears instead of taking the opportunity to learn more or spend time getting to know others on common grounds.
The idea of the fear someone can create out of nothing but an idea they created in their own mind or even from a one time experience (at times the people themselves are antagonizing to other and cause issues, then gaslight or blame others for the issues, these tend to be deeper mental health issues, best to consult help in dealing with what I have termed "Target-Clickbait" [copyright] or simply bullying)...
These cause issues that can be used in the fanaticism to catapult the relational of the fanatic(s) into power over others, like Narcissism or Psychopathy and that becomes a dark place.
But the reality is every time a person or group targets another person or group for reasons that are fear imposed with no proof or rational to support it other than, because they say, because they think, obscure objectives in world issues or news that support and antagonize this type of thinking (again to create hype for news or even to create more news over conflicts).
THEY ARE CREATING THEIR OWN STATEMENT - THEY ARE NOT SAFE TO BE PART OF COMMUNITIES.
Seeing the news reports about people who are attacking other religions, political and racial positions because they see their faith, political position or culture superior to others and then make a public statement, take a public stand or attack others who are not the same as them (no proof of any harm to them from someone, only news and propaganda to support fear they have whipped up in their minds and catastrophized to support their claims) this is mental illness and structuring working towards gaining power over people or in agency.
This tells the world, we need to be keen, prepared and aware, we can't just brush it off, ignore it or pretend they are harmless, crazy or Ego-tripping.
WE NEED TO SEE IT AS THE THREAT IT IS INTENDED TO BE.
literally there have been attacks on people, schools, industries and religious and spiritual places...
LETS FACE IT WE HAVE NOT SEEN THIS LEVEL OF HARRASSMENT AND TARGETING BEFORE - WITH OUT CALLING IT TARROISM
When someone stands in a public domain and projects catastrophizing attacks upon another human being, religion, culture or political position, we need to start de-escalation processes.
We need to be aware that this behaviour turns out to be the results of more serious issues, harm and even tragedy, we need to take the action seriously and act upon our own instincts to protect ourselves and those we love from harm.
We need to start considering these people the threat they are putting out, not down play it, their potential to loose control of the fear they have can turn dangerous.
We need to be aware, not live in fear, but document and see when issues get heated, a real level of protecting the community, needs to be considered, report, call the authorities, ask community members to witness and document what transpired, and be safe.
Don't try to do this alone, don't be embarrassed, or feel you can handle this, call someone and have them witness by phone and record it too, report and document, engage witnesses in the public around you, call for help.
Tragedy can be prevented by just being more aware, a threat is a threat...take it seriously and get to a safe place and call be help.
