The majority are all Humpty Dumpty’s grandchildren.
The majority, too, face all sorts of issues and problems. Most problems are common, and almost all are easily solvable if they work and stick together.
But the majority won’t. And that’s not in its DNA. That is its curse.
Remember that cliched crab mentality? That’s a lot of people in the majority. There is no better metaphor. And the market forces keep hurting them.
The masses and groups making the majority have no qualms about undercutting another sect, betraying people, and getting thoroughly undervalued. They do not have much of a voice when their religious symbols are disrespected.
So why won’t the majority stand together and fight?
Unfortunately, the majority can’t unite. It’s a genetic glitch—something that destiny does not intend.
In the majority, conformity is a plague. It wants to be different from others in its practices, rituals, and beliefs. The majority do not copy or plagiarise concepts; they just adopt and adapt to the new tortures, pressures, demands, and desires of external forces.
The majority has always been different, different in approach, different in interpretation, and differently perceived. Everything the majority does reinforces its philosophy and existence, much like its subsects and groups.
The majority knows and complains about the unity of the minority, but they will not watch each other’s back. No, within the majority, the groups will not come to rescue each other.
As small and big subsects within the majority religion, the majority now is wired for repression through our secularism, acceptability and inclusiveness. It is rigged and doomed to be corrupted in practice because it has always respected all and has been tolerant and inclusive. And in the name of being secular, be exploited.
This in-built yearning to be seen as secular suppresses our indigestion and anger at anything that questions our beliefs.
All in a landscape that brims with the exact opposite.
Look outside of our ghettoes of constrained thinking, and you’ll see how other religions fight for themselves.
No one dares to even dream of messing with them. The minority stands and laughs at the majority. They mock the system and the majority’s adaptability. They want the majority to be inclusive and call it violent while mercilessly repressing the majority time and again—or at least that is visible to a blind eye.
You can’t do anything- not even what they happily do to the majority.
I am not joking. The majority are just plain idiots.
They live in their basked glory of being adaptive, inclusive and tolerant. They are wholly given to the lure and seduction of being branded secular.
Unbothered by mundane matters like religious protection, dignity, repression, and conversion.
The majority’s desperation to remain under the radar, not create undue problems, fuels a passion for religious dominance in others- where such things as tolerance and inclusiveness are sacrificed.
How I wish the majority had a united front. Voices that fight, advocate, and stand up for their collective good.
Sadly, it’s just a dream—one more mirage in this unforgiving desert.
Minorities will continue to exploit this congenital flaw in the field of political support and use it to their advantage.
They understand that the same keeda that drives politicians to create unique benefits and schemes for them. And that, for everything else, there is the majority to be blamed.
They know the majority are helpless addict to their fragmented structure. Perfect for others to exploit.
The majority never had the solidarity to push back, and the walls crumble daily. The majority remains naive, splintered, and locked in a self-destructive pouty-lipped standoff. They can’t even vote as a block. They can’t and won’t even support people who openly belong to them.
The majority’s inherently fierce love for creating division within themselves and protecting their limited originality is both their greatest asset and Achilles’ heel.
Divided, the majority continues to fall, crack open eggshells, and eventually exterminate themselves. The minority then has no one to look at; they become the new majority, who understand the game far better than the fragmented majority. And when someone tells them the truth that divided the Humpty Dumpty would fall- they call him communal- as it does not fit the secular woke image that is only supposed to fit the Majority
