3. What kind of mindset will solve the problem of intolerance?
The mindset
that consciously exercises empathy of those who are different is necessary to solve
the problem of intolerance. We should avoid doing what we do not want others to
do to us.
We should
also watch ourselves to see if we are acting equally to anyone because we tend
to be unaware of our discrimination.
Those who habitually
release stress by bullying others should stop it. It is addictive and thus
destructive to them, getting rid of their ability to enjoy true joy of life, as
well as to those who are bullied by them.
In addition,
we should also know that the idea of excluding others who do not share what we believe
is important excludes us from happiness. It reduces chances to expand our world.
It makes our image bad among those who are discriminated against by us. It leads
to hate crimes, by those who discriminate against others, and terrorism, by
those who are discriminated against.
