Torture
Bahri Çağrı Toygar
There are particular perceptions in our sophisticated communities. They could prompt a certain type of behavior, a tradition that we conserve, a way of saluting our acquaintances on the street or just candidly, torture. We converse about a distinct kind of torture when it is in the social interactions that we pursue. A profound, vindictive, disdainful, scornful and savage scheme of torture. The wound of this dreadful and prevalent abomination is actually engraved in our minds: Discrimination. It is a thin sharp blade that causes unrecoverable wounds.
Society is inclined to postulate that an attribute that is defiant to the conventional ways of living is utterly inadmissible and should be condemned without exception. Individuals possess an innate sentiment of rejection towards change of patterns in life and this feeling leads to the dehumanization of certain social groups. Furthermore, this exclusive behavior results in the marginalization of individuals which then contributes to the dominion of torture.
However the society has not come to realize that the norms that are enforced and instilled on others to oppress their attributes and discriminate against them vary in the world.
It can be observed that culture distinctly changes depending on where a person dwells in. In the world of humankind, norms are not as we know it. All personalities and cultures are distinct and yet they are exactly the same because they all have the quality of being different. Being different is the norm.
