RE: Ridicule and Blame Hold Humanity Back And Are A Hidden Cause Of Massive Suffering. Let's Explore Non Judgement, Non Blame & Non Ridicule!
I feel that a lot of ridicule is caused by peoples' cognitive dissonance. They don't want their ideas or beliefs to be wrong, so they just use vulgar, rude, belittling, and presumptuous statements to make their beliefs look stronger in their own mind.
yes, it is the lack of self acceptance i am pointing to here. to accept that you do not know everything and that some of your logic is false, is to expose your true self and that is what is most hidden by many people. many people consider their true self to be unacceptable and so an inner struggle occurs that often just results in denial and dysfunctional habits.
