An Imaginary Country With a Very Servile/Cringe System
Note: All the Events happening in this blog are purely related to an Imaginary Country. It is up to the readers to make inferences/judgements of their own
There is an imaginary country in the map of the world. Let us call it country “Banana Republic” for our own ease. Banana Republic has a very rich history and culture. Banana Republic is famous for its bananas too. Banana Republic is only its name, actually, it never wanted to do transition to a fully fledged republic country. Every time, this and that happens to stop the process of transition to a full Republic from Banana Republic.
A Surprising thing about Banana Republic is that, it loves to teach people to behave well all the time. People in this country have to be too much polite and a big smile on the face all the time, because people believe that it is their culture. Though, the creators of Banana Republic are not abided by this Strong Code. Actually, Creators can do whatever they like. They do not face any consequences. In this country, People have to work hard to impress others to make things done and to survive. Those creators are very conscious about their rights and privileges, but have always neglected the internal feeling of those public and dissatisfaction. Public could face consequences even for speaking up, because the Strong Codes are tough like steel.
Many people in Banana Republic (only conscious one and those who are aware of things happening around the world as well as those who have learnt that freedom with responsibility is the best policy) consider/blame creators for pushing people down using their power. Dissent is not being entertained; it is being crushed or shamed. The funny thing is, older generation in this Banana Republic are very good supporter of the system set up by the creators. They admire the system so much that it looks like older generation is ready to sacrifice their own blood to protect it (not literally, but it gives the sense)
Banana Republic has indirectly pressed every step to a full fledged democracy, change, transition, freedom, any voice of criticism of creators, change in status-quo using the “Zombie Force”, which is loyal to the creators. The Zombie Force is very loyal to creators because it gives them the best recognition and puts them in the center of system and all processes. It is a win-win situation for both sides. That is why Zombie Force has always come forward to support any ill -intentioned decisions made by creators. In other ways, it is a very nice system of Symbiosis – where each side benefits by being together and help each other to grow and survive. Every time , there is a voice of change or criticism is on the road, Zombie Force has crushed it and enjoyed the good economic growth of the own. Everyone knows, Zombie Force has no idea, how to earn money, how to invest it and how to do auditing as well as control corruption. So, ultimately, it is Zombie force, who has gotten all the benefits of manipulating the economy and other systems of the system.
Every system in this Banana Republic is full of “Unproductive Formalities”. Where ever you go, there would be 100s of formalities before every process/event. These formalities are tiresome. New generation do not understand these old formalities and their existence is solely to impress a higher system of creators. Creators of Banana Republic might be loving to see people following unproductive formalities (otherwise, they might have spoken up about these long time before or abolish those unproductive formalities). Their is a race among people, who shall work hard to impress the system and creators with their dedication to follow unproductive formalities. Older generation grew up following those unproductive formalities, so it is understandable them to love it. Offices, schools, every events are full those unproductive formalities.
Example – Creators have so much dominance that ————->>>>>>> Every event in Banana Republic starts with worshipping the Creators of the system. They are to be worshipped with a prayer, music and a long speech. Then, events starts, till all the participants have lost their enthusiasm in the event.
The creators of the Banana Republic were very smart to came up with an idea. It is alleged that Creators found a nice way to edit the history of the Banana Republic. The allegation goes like this —->>>> Some creative Creators shredded the real history and start writing new history with modifications benefiting their establishment. People of Banana Republic had to follow a complete new set of history with new historical events with modifications , till modified one became the only history left in the books. In this way, the modified history was perfectly established in to the mind of people as well as in the system. Not everyone know the real history of the country anymore. Another smart thing about that modification was to write new history in such as way that it would only make people of Banana Republic so to notch proud all the time that they would forget to ask any questions about it. That is why people of Banana Republic are proud of history , but do not show any criticism or any questioning. In this way, creators of Banana Republic achieved their two target; 1. Modifying old history to benefit them immensely and 2. Modify to give immense pleasure and proud feeling to people towards the history till they cannot criticize it.
Not trusting Young Learners/Juniors/Those who are lower in position is the personality trait of Old Iron Heads. Every time, when young generation has asked to be listened, Old Iron Heads have ignored them completely. This Ignorance by Old Iron Heads has raised frustration and a desire for change among most of younger generation in the Banana Republic. Ignoring younger than you can be seen in the whole system, which is trickled down to society to neighborhood to family level.
Old Iron Heads love to maintain a dominating role and position over young and juniors. Old Iron Heads would lose their cool, if they are being questioned or their authority is threatened by someone younger than them. Old Iron Heads have got their head rusted in such as way that they take offence very easily. Old Iron Heads are everywhere in the society of Banana Republic. Below are some examples of Old Iron Heads that exist:
For Example – Caretakers would not discuss any family issues with their kids. If, their kids question their caretaking, they would surely be blamed for speaking up and raising their voice. That is why 95% of children in Banana Republic have no intimate relationship with caretakers; it is more like a care taker and receiver relationship, not a team. Children have to share their issues with their friends, close teachers, or suffer with mental agony. 95% of caretakers can’t imagine their children being the part of the team of family; that is why those caretakers are good at keeping secrets from their own children. Caretakers learnt this arrogant attitude from the very top of the Creators. A Proverb: The Imprint of Parents would always remains on their kids. Caretakers are doing exactly the creators are doing with the whole system and what the whole system is doing to the public of Banana Republic.
2. BookWorm Geeks is one of the most prestigious working class of people in Banana Republic, and are supposed to deliver the knowledge from books to learners. BookWorm Geeks has also imitated the personality and attitude towards learners similar like those of Creators. Mostly old BookWorm Geeks are Iron heads; new generation of BookWorm Geeks are more open minded that old ones. BookWorm Geeks love to dominate learners in their learning penitentiary. BookWorm Geeks community have made many BullSh*t rules survive this long. Top BookWorm Geeks, who stay at the top of the learning Penitentiary System created those rules to synchronize with the objectives of Creators and its establishment. For many generations, BullSh*t rules made the life of learners a hell. Rules such as ———->>>>>> learners shall not choose the hairstyle of their choice, learners shall not question BookWorm Geeks, learners shall always crawl on the flow to show their respect, learners shall accept every word of BookWorm Geeks without any criticism or counter question, learner shall not show his/her creativity in front of BookWom Geeks otherwise they might be offended, learners shall tolerate loud shouting/threats/beating by BookWorm Geeks. These rules ruled for a long time, and also create a huge frustration in young learners, who were expecting otherwise from Learning Penitentiaries. The amazing thing is —–>>>> many caretakers love the way BookWorm Geeks treat young learners. No Caretaker has ever resisted the bullSh*t rules in multiple generation. So, we can say that this Strong Code in Learning Penitentiary has strengthened and emboldened to the grass root level of community after many generation. Some BookWorm Geeks are very harsh on young Learners; they even go to the extend of shouting, embarrassing learners in front of other people, creating instant new rules to dominate a student who dare to cross the line/authority.
BookWorm Geeks would never let Young learner to sit at equal level to them; always have to keep young learners in a dominating hierarchy in Learning Penitentiary. Sometimes the writer wonder, why do humans invent chairs to sit on? BookWorm Geeks have to change their spectacles to understand the feelings, interest, opinion of Young Learners and a change in learning policy where Young learners are the Centre of Learning in Learning Penitentiaries.
3. System Executors are those people whose sole responsibility is to execute based on the Strong Codes set up by the Creators as well as Dummy people. System Executors also try their best to follow rules irrespective of them being too old, harsh, traditional and unsuitable with modern Banana Republic society. They are ready to punish those who ask questions, kill the voice of dissents, never show enthusiasm to change those great-great-great pa times Strong Codes and be loyal to the system.
One interesting thing about Banana Republic is ————————–>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
It is very advanced technologically in comparison to many other countries , but at the same time it is very backward due to traditional stone era beliefs. This imbalance between between existence of advance technology but traditional beliefs is weird. Banana Republic has high class trains, internet access, domestic production of things, international ties, flow of foreign currency, booming economy. This might look like an evolving country. But, when observe deeply the beliefs, they are super traditional. This imbalance has hindered the progress, creativity and innovation. Young Learner Generation have access to modern technology and services, but a huge waste of time in formalities, a great resistance for new thoughts other than traditional one, tiring job of impressing Caretakers/BookWorm Geeks and System Executors. Young Learner would not have mental capability to think something out of the box, unless a balance is being created between technological advances and social beliefs.
Young Learner is Energetic and ready to break the chains of Traditional BullSh*t Strong Codes
But, it does not mean Young learner generation and Mango People admire Traditional BullSh*t Strong Codes. Young Learner Generation had no access to any modern technology and a system to connect themselves. Internet and mobile connectivity has given a power to Young Learner Generation.
Young Learners And Mango People are very aware of discrepancies, inequality, BullSh*t rules, dominating system, killing voice of dissent etc. The mazing power which Young Learners and Mango People have got got is — the Mobile phone and fast internet. This has given power to Mango people to understand the outside world with first hand information and make comparisons between their status with others.
Also, this technological advance has worked in favor of Young Learners and Mango People. They could get access to any information as well as share their opinion, frustration, gather support, show reality, criticize as anonymous with anyone. The absence of fear and anonymity has led many Young Learners and Mango People come forward to say what they feel like to say.
Young Learners and Mango People are tired of century old beliefs, Strong Codes and thinking process which has hindered the creativity, innovation, freedom of speech, success among themselves. Young Learners and Mango People have clearly understood this linkage between overall success and must presence of freedom. They know that western societies have succeeded so much in so short time is due to presence of Top Notch Freedom, absence of fear to do mistakes and supportive environment. Young Learners and Mango People in Banana Republic are smart too, but they need an environment, where they can bloom like a flower and boost their hidden potential to the pinnacle of success, rather than wasting all of their energy fighting the system. A reformed system would surely help Banana Republic succeed in short time.
Young Learners and Mango People have a long way to go to achieve that desired environment and the road to the destination is very winding and full of obstacles. It is Young Learners and Mango People, who have the ability and courage to bring change by making other Young Learners and Mango People more aware and more educated. This would ultimately push for the change.
Let us hope for good. And wish good luck to Young Learners and Mango People of Banana Republic
