The sense of insecurity within a community can indeed be exacerbated by educational approaches that prioritize fanaticism over rationalism.
Promotion of Division: Fanaticism tends to promote an "us versus them" mentality, fostering division within communities. When education emphasizes rigid adherence to certain beliefs without encouraging critical thinking and understanding of diverse perspectives, it can lead to mistrust, fear, and insecurity among different groups within the community.
Rationalism, on the other hand, promotes critical thinking, evidence-based reasoning, and respect for diverse perspectives. When education emphasizes rationalism, it fosters a culture of open-mindedness, tolerance, and empathy within the community. This can strengthen social cohesion, trust, and mutual understanding, ultimately reducing feelings of insecurity and promoting a more harmonious environment.

Educational approaches that prioritize fanaticism over rationalism can contribute to a sense of insecurity within communities by promoting division, discouraging open dialogue, increasing vulnerability to manipulation, stifling critical thinking, and undermining social cohesion. Emphasizing rationalism in education is crucial for fostering a more informed, tolerant, and secure community environment.

Addressing the root cause:
1. Many are kept perpetually poor and handouts-dependent. Why?
Individuals prone to toxic fanaticism may have underlying psychological traits such as black-and-white thinking, rigid belief systems, and a need for certainty and control. They may also exhibit traits like narcissism or low self-esteem, seeking validation and significance through their fanatic beliefs.

Toxic fanaticism often originates from a combination of psychological, social, and ideological factors:
1. **Psychological Factors:** Individuals prone to toxic fanaticism may have underlying psychological traits such as black-and-white thinking, rigid belief systems, and a need for certainty and control. They may also exhibit traits like narcissism or low self-esteem, seeking validation and significance through their fanatic beliefs.
2. **Social Influences:** Social environments play a crucial role in fostering toxic fanaticism. This can include echo chambers where extremist views are reinforced, group dynamics that encourage conformity and discourage dissent, and charismatic leaders who manipulate followers' emotions and beliefs.
3. **Ideological Indoctrination:** Toxic fanaticism often stems from extreme ideologies that promote intolerance, dehumanization of others, and a sense of superiority. These ideologies may be religious, political, racial, or cultural in nature, and they often exploit fear, anger, and grievances to radicalize individuals.
4. **Emotional Manipulation:** Fanatic leaders or groups often use emotional manipulation techniques such as fear-mongering, scapegoating, and demonizing perceived enemies to maintain control over their followers. This can create a siege mentality where adherents feel justified in extreme actions to defend their beliefs.
5. **Lack of Critical Thinking:** Toxic fanaticism thrives in environments where critical thinking, questioning, and independent analysis are discouraged. Followers are taught to accept beliefs uncritically and to view dissent as betrayal or heresy, further reinforcing the group's control.

Toxic fanaticism can indeed lead to paranoia and extreme behaviors. When individuals or groups become overly fixated on a particular belief or ideology to the point of fanaticism, they often develop a heightened sense of distrust and suspicion towards anything or anyone that contradicts their beliefs. This can manifest as paranoia, where individuals may perceive threats where none exist or exaggerate the significance of minor issues.
Sabotaging and boycotting local businesses as a form of protest or expression of beliefs can have far-reaching consequences beyond just the immediate economic impact. It can damage the country's image, goodwill, and overall stability in several ways:
Economic Impact: Local businesses are essential contributors to the economy, providing employment opportunities and driving economic growth. Boycotting them can result in job losses, reduced revenue for the government, and overall economic downturn.
Country's Image: International perception of a country can be influenced by how it treats its own businesses and industries. A widespread boycott of local businesses can signal instability, lack of confidence in the economy, and potential political or social unrest, leading to a negative image on the global stage.
Goodwill: Local businesses often have strong ties to their communities and contribute to social welfare programs, charitable initiatives, and community development. Boycotting them can erode this goodwill and disrupt the social fabric that supports a cohesive society.
Stability: A thriving local economy is crucial for overall stability. Boycotting local businesses can weaken economic resilience, increase dependency on foreign goods and services, and create economic imbalances that can lead to social and political tensions.

Boycotting local businesses can indeed have far-reaching consequences that go beyond mere economic impact.
1. **Economic Impact:** Local businesses are the backbone of any economy. They provide employment opportunities, contribute to tax revenues, and stimulate economic growth through innovation and competition. By boycotting these businesses, there's a direct hit to the economy, leading to job losses, decreased tax revenue, and a slowdown in economic activity.
2. **Country's Image and Goodwill:** Local businesses also play a significant role in shaping a country's image and goodwill. They often represent the entrepreneurial spirit, cultural heritage, and unique offerings of a nation. When people boycott local businesses, it can send a negative message about the country's business environment, potentially tarnishing its reputation and goodwill in the global market.
3. **Currency Strength:** A thriving local economy is closely linked to the strength of the national currency. When local businesses suffer due to boycotts, it creates instability and weakens the currency. This can lead to inflation, reduced purchasing power for citizens, and increased economic uncertainty, affecting everyone in the country, including those not directly involved in the boycott.
4. **Social Fabric:** Local businesses are often deeply connected to the social fabric of communities. They sponsor local events, support charitable causes, and foster a sense of community pride. Boycotting these businesses can erode this social cohesion, leading to divisions and tensions within society.
In essence, boycotting local businesses can be seen as sabotaging not just the economy but also the country's image, goodwill, and overall stability. It's important to promote a balanced approach that encourages responsible consumer choices while also supporting local businesses and the broader national economy

Children must learn to question their intuition and develop healthy skepticism to think critically. Children must learn to verify information from trusted sources with credible evidence and diverse perspectives from people of different backgrounds. Children must learn to practice cognitive hygiene by prioritizing reliable sources and engaging in fact-based discussions. Children must learn to embrace intellectual humility and be open to revising beliefs based on evidence. Children must learn to avoid the seductive appeal of certainty and be wary of oversimplified narratives about the supernatural. Children must learn to spot emotional manipulation, such as fear and outrage, disguised as logic.

Msian Msia is the way forward to unite, progress and prosper?
Unity through integration is superior to unity via assimilation for several reasons.
Firstly, integration acknowledges and respects the diversity of individuals and communities within a nation. It promotes inclusivity by allowing people to maintain their cultural, religious, and linguistic identities while still being part of the larger national fabric. This approach fosters a sense of belonging and acceptance among citizens, reducing feelings of alienation or marginalization that can arise with assimilation.
Secondly, integration encourages mutual understanding and cooperation among different groups. Instead of forcing everyone to conform to a dominant culture, it values the contributions and perspectives of various cultural backgrounds. This diversity of viewpoints can lead to more innovative solutions to societal challenges and promote a richer tapestry of arts, literature, and traditions.
Additionally, integration promotes social harmony and reduces the risk of conflicts that may arise from cultural suppression or forced homogenization. When people feel respected and valued for who they are, they are more likely to participate positively in society and work towards common goals.
Furthermore, integration fosters resilience in the face of external pressures or threats. A nation built on the principles of integration is better equipped to adapt to changing demographics, global trends, and geopolitical shifts without compromising the rights and identities of its diverse population.
In contrast, unity via assimilation can lead to cultural homogeneity, erasing valuable cultural heritage and stifling individual expression. It may also create divisions and resentment among marginalized communities, leading to social unrest and instability.
Therefore, prioritizing unity through integration not only strengthens the social fabric of a nation but also contributes to its long-term sustainability and prosperity.

Akmalkin Skywalker: I Corrupt All Cops? Instigators: On having the balls, courage and jantanness to surrender & come clean about bearing their responsibilities:
The identifiers for instigators causing vigilanteism can include individuals or groups who:
1. Spread false or misleading information to incite anger or fear e.g. by exaggerating of human error as intentional provocation
2. Demonize, accuse, slander and call for boikot certain companies, communities or individuals, leading to a sense of condemnation and persecution
3. Exploit existing emotional tensions or religious grievances for personal or political gain.
4. Disregard the rule of law and promote a "justice by boikotting at any cost" mentality.
5. Use inflammatory rhetoric or propaganda to mobilize supporters towards vigilante, extremism or terrorism actions.
6. Target specific individuals or groups as scapegoats for broader societal issues

On curbing vigilantism: Arrest today, not tomorrow
In cases of terrorism, all parties involved play a significant role in the perpetration of violence and must be held accountable for their actions:
1. The person with deemed divine knowledge who preaches is guilty because they have the power to influence individuals' beliefs and actions. If their teachings promote or condone violence, they contribute to creating an environment conducive to terrorism.
2. The person with caliber and position who incites is equally culpable as they have authority and influence over a larger audience. Their words can sway public opinion and motivate others to commit acts of terror.
3. The person with little grey matter who commits the arson act is directly responsible for the violent act itself. However, their actions are often influenced by the rhetoric and ideologies spread by those in positions of power and authority.
4. Responsible enforcers who fault to act prophylactically by stopping the perpetual instigators
Therefore, in the context of terrorism, each party plays a role in the chain of events leading to violence, and all must face consequences for their contributions to promoting or inciting such acts.

Noble people earn respect through their actions, integrity, and positive contributions to society. Nobility is not just a title or status but a way of conducting oneself with honor, honesty, and compassion towards others. When noble individuals uphold these values consistently, they naturally earn respect from those around them.
On the other hand, rogue people often resort to force, coercion, threat, or blackmail to gain respect or compliance from others. This type of behavior is not based on genuine respect but on fear or manipulation. It does not reflect true character or integrity but rather a willingness to use power or intimidation to get what they want.
In essence, nobility earns respect through virtue and positive actions, while rogue behavior relies on fear and manipulation, which is not sustainable or honorable in the long run.

This kind of cold turkey economic strategy will eventually fail as it will "keep the rich at bay to strengthen the poor," which is very similar to our education system, which took away all the exams so that no one will happily fail the primary school exam and come to secondary school; the whole classes failed.
