Twists of ideologies
When I scroll through my social media newsfeed, the first thing I pay attention to is my friends' thoughts. Especially when they tell me once again, “your time has not come”. They mean my thoughts, or rather their perception. And once again I remember the joke about the meat pie.
A man buys a meat pie and sees that there is no meat inside it after taking a bite.
“Where is the meat?” the man asks.
“You haven’t got to the meat part,” the seller replies.
He eats up the pie but finds no meat inside it.
“Where was the meat?” he asks again.
“You must have missed it,” he is told.
So, you have missed it…
"Azerbaijan first became a state when it brought home Ramil Safarov [an assassin who axed to death sleeping Armenian officer Gurgen Margaryan and was heroized by Azerbaijan]. IMHO," one of my friends wrote.
I was thinking about it and agree with it. For the first time Europe openly turned a blind eye to crime, justice, morality and humanity and acted upon the desires of Azerbaijan, handing over the murderer who hacked to death the sleeping Armenian officer to the ideology of his glorification.
But, I think, it would not have led to the rise of Azerbaijan, Nikolism and Armenianocide if not for the perversion of logic, its loss, and partly the counter-argumentation of glorification among us.
Not only among us, but also children.
“Who is Gurgen Margaryan?” a journalist with a camera asked the school students many years ago.
“A hero,” answered the children who came to honor his memory.
“Why is he a hero?” continued the journalist.
“Because he was killed by the Turks,” they answered, and I realize that the school is on the brink of the abyss.
And so are we.
Do I need to describe in detail why?
