Recently, a film released by an American sparked wildfires around the Islamic countries (with countries in the Middle East reacting the most radical that caused the death of the US embassy rep and his mates). Well, protests calling the US government to get him punished are on the rise, with some radical minds blaming the US for this matter.
Well, it seemed that this film producer is really out of his mind to do this film to insult people from other religions and sparked centuries of the Islam-Christian conflict which has sparked wars in the past. I don't know why some people, living in the 21st Century where 'civilisation' should be understood by each and every human being in the world, would really love to cause havoc to this world that is meant to be peaceful and harmonious. Wasn't that bitter conflict is so last millennium and should have put to an end to that? When would this conflict end for once and for all? Would've the film producer think the consequences that it may occur if this stigmatic film is released to the world, or did the film producer intentionally want to do so?
Same case applies to the race issue. In my country, this type of discrimination has been reduced to a great margin since the times when the British rule over my country. Well, not quite for the world. It includes teens like us and it's mostly found online. Check out Korean rapper PSY's hit single 'Gangnam Style' MV Youtube page (you must be kidding me if you haven't heard of this hit). You would've seen some awkward comments like 'Why JB is better than PSY?' (does it even really matter?) and listed some so-called 'reasons'. Here are some of them:
1. PSY is a Chinese/Asian.
2. Chinese/Asians eat dog meat.
3. This language (Korean) discriminate the English language.
Some of you may think it's waaay bizarre but well, ask them why do they think so if you want. This is one of the prominent cases of race discrimination. What could I say. Probably those comments are posted by teens in the UK/US where there is a group of people who think that they are 'high-class human beings' and does not respect any other people whom are not the same race as them (I didn't mean all of them, but some of them that had became the people who had really disgraced his race for thinking so). Does an African or an Asian look 'low-class' just because they are not damn wealthy as the US or UK (in fact, nowadays the Asia-Pacific region is earning bucks ...) or do not have privilege extensive use of English language in home country (because we do already have our language)?
What about other types of discrimination? Physique and appearance discrimination, academic discrimination, gender discrimination (quite hard to solve this one, eh?) and many more of them ...
For those people who think that they are top class human beings just by purely classification by skin colour, I would say 'Who do you think they are? Did they contribute anything to the world or their country? Their skin colour is not going to determine which status are they at now. That's dishonourable and disgusting.' So, in the case of that film, I would hope that Muslims would not react too staggeringly by doing something that is not worth it. The US Government should do something to stop that from happening and slap that irresponsible producer to pay the price for the itch of condemning other religions with proper punishment.
Discrimination is hard to eliminate because there may be minorities who stand firm at his mindset, but minimising it is the ultimate task we humans must accomplish.
