Societies make advances in all walks of life when their
mindset stay focused on certain objectives : a keen desire for greater
achievements, an obsession with thoughts
for improvement , and an ambition to
travel yet further. Whereas on the other hand, societies which feel contented
and even satisfied, become stagnant and action- less, which are the ailments
which gradually culminate in decay and collapse. Pakistani society has been
collectively suffering from certain fatal ailments which go unnoticed even by
the men of letter.
Paranoia, & social narcissism, most of the people are suffering
from this ailment. They feel that the whole world is out to harm them and
lessen their influence (which to them they wield) . To them there is a conspiracy
in each and every action initiated by the major powers of the world. They
remain under a kind of delusion that they are of much importance to the world
and the world cannot run its affairs without them, they view all the
developments in the world form this prism.
History of perfection, their satisfaction is further
boosted by the version of history they are taught in their educational
intuitions. The main theme of which is that Pakistan has made achievements in all walks of life, be it
science or social values, military
power, natural resources or economy ‘we
are the best’. We have performed well in all walks of life…
Interest in conspiracy theories. Every action of others especially
of the major world powers is analyzed
and viewed as a conspiracy launched against them.. be it in Africa or north America, but they feel that it
will ultimately turn against them. Although conspiracies cannot be denied, but
this mindset has grown into ailment. To them the world has nothing else do
except to launch conspiracies against them.. Even to them there is a hidden
conspiracy in polio drops against them…
Remain besieged to the body of
narratives, it is
interesting to note that there are certain well known narratives imitated by
the interested sections whenever they feel the need, and almost all the people
are part of one or the other narrative. The three major narratives are as
under.
1 democracy
is at stake: This is a useful card used by the political elites of the country
for galvanizing public support whenever they feel their vested interest if to
be served.
2. security
of the country is in danger: this tool is utilized by the security
establishment to get more empowered and
esteemed in the eyes of the public and secure space.
3.
conspiracies are ahead against the religion. The tool is very handy for the
religious elites of the country, it is always instrumental for them in the
process of space sharing with intuitions and building pressure over them by
indoctrinating the simple minded masses.
The nukes,
the nuke are deemed by some people as something which no other person on the planet
possesses, or their nukes are far more better than those of the others ,especially
of Indian which to them will turn into a damp squib ‘when the time come’( which
they badly wait for).
A Faulty comparison, In everything when it comes to
comparison India is mentioned, be it, education, science, democracy or again
cricket. India has certainly gone ahead in these areas, whereas pakistan is lagging
behind, they need to have another developing country available for their
comparison which they resemble.
