The Hate Revolution

The Hate Revolution 

By: Erreh Svaia

“It is easy to hate and it is difficult to love. This is how the whole scheme of things works. All good things are difficult to achieve; and bad things are very easy to get.”

Confucius

It's been known that tough times bring the best of us, but it also can bring the worst, it's precisely in hard times when desperation starts to become a bad adviser for us, we woke up this morning with the news about a new terrorist attack in the old continent, Europe, and the European Union were hit right in the heart again, still a couple of months after what happened in Paris, and not to far removed geographical from that place, this time it was Brussels, precisely the heart of the EU, but at the same time the heart of radical Islam in Europe, the neighborhood known as Molenbeek, the place where intense yihadist has been detected. 

With the EU's action taken in agreement with Turkey, and the recent capture of one of the radical Muslim leaders, is no big surprise that terrorist activity was about to start again, as intense discomfort between native Europeans and migrants is escalating to fearsome levels, but violence only spawns more violence and is a matter of time for extremist far right groups to start putting pressure on the Union in order to expel refugees at a quicker pace, as Turkey's surreal agreement, considering European Union democratic values and Turkey's authoritarianism, might become a direct shock to the whole system, a fast track admittance of Turkey to the Union, in the end, ironically, will result in the immediate free admittance also of al those refugees sent to those lands to the EU. 

As desperate measures start to be executed, far right groups, extremist, xenophobic and Euro skeptics keep raising their voice in Europe, call it the UKIP in the UK, screaming for Brexit, the National Front in France and the AfD in Germany, and now Brussels, the heart of the Union which can start witnessing the rise of such groups. 

But just as Europe seems to be in the middle of a rising "hate revolution", that revolution is also happening in North America with Trump looking like the obvious winner in the Republican presidential candidate race with a "con artist" kidnapping the slot, and the Republican Party moving fast under the table in order to stop Trump's advance, while in México, Andrés López, the potential presidential candidate for the extreme left wing makes a lot pact with the CNTE, a radical teachers Union advocating violence as its method to make fraudulent demands on the government. 

It seems that these days hate is a virus that is quickly spreading thru the world, diving societies and countries and adding even more chaos to the already convoluted world we are living in.
