Not in my name

 Why disagreeing is an responsibility? You may like it or not, you cant deny the fact that you are part of herd especially when you are born is most populous country in the world like India. Your education, your job, your social life everything is decided by trend and that trend is decided by herd mentality.

If you think one step further why you are finding it safe to bet on herd mentality you cant simply take the pain of explaining the things to anyone. This goes fine where a social order is created and a protocol exists between group of communicating parties in giving life to certain mechanized version of day to day happenings.


All hell breaks down when this smooth oiled setup is obstructed by one such person who disagrees with the status quo and exhibits his willingness to stand against the wind. Till now the well oiled machinery which was in action for decades and centuries suddenly starts to feel contested. A first kind of reaction that emerges from the system is anger against the contesting party. The primary reason for such a reaction is primarily due to the reason they cant EXPLAIN the rationality behind the existence of such a machinery. They try to nullify the effect of existence of such odd amidst even through manipulation.

When clamour for odd thought process grows in volumes this gives raise to militant actions against compounding voices resulting in counter actions driving the parties involved to harm each other in show of power.

At the outset entire blame is shifted onto to one such person who stood out of the system as root cause and system which was affected by this non cooperation starts to brand him as a traitor. But the fact remains that he has chosen the stand wherein he is not made a party to the actions taken by the system assuming his silence as his concurrence and portray disagreement as his exhibition of feeling responsible to activities happening around him.
