Mwachiwonekere ambiri a ife tonsefe. Ndili ndi zero kugwiritsira ntchito ufumu kapena nkhondo. Koma ndikugwiritsa ntchito malembawa ngati mwachidule kwa magulu awiri omwe nthawi zina amagwirizanitsa ndipo nthawizina samachita khama lawo.
Mmodzi amalankhula motsutsana ndi ufumu ndi nkhondo ndi kutsindika pa ufumu, amapewa kuteteza kusasamala, sanena zambiri za njira zothetsera kusamvana popanda nkhondo, kawirikawiri amakonda mawu akuti "revolution," ndipo nthawi zina amalimbikitsa chiwawa kapena kusintha kwa njira iliyonse zilipo kapena "zofunikira."
Wina akutsutsana ndi nkhondo ndi ufumu ndi kutsindika nkhondo, kulimbikitsa zida zotsutsana ndi zipolowe, zida zankhondo, nyumba zatsopano kuti zithetse nkhondo, ndipo ziribe kanthu kena kalikonse ponena za "ufulu" wotsutsana ndi zida zankhondo kapena zoyenera kusankha pakati pa nkhanza ndi "kugona pansi ndi kusachita kanthu."
Ndikofunika kwambiri kuti magulu awiriwa, omwe amagwirizana komanso ophatikizana ali ndi kusiyana kwakukulu, alankhulane wina ndi mnzake. Onse awiri akumvetsa kufooka kwa magawano. Onse awiri amakhulupiliranso kuti pali zofooka zazikulu potengera kutsogolera kwa ena. Kotero, nthawizina pali mgwirizano ndipo nthawizina si. Koma pamene zilipo, ndizopanda pake. Kawirikawiri zokambiranazo zimapita mozama kuti zitha kupeza njira zothandiza pokhapokha kapena kukopa anthu omwe ali ndi malo amodzi kuti asamukire kumalo ena.
Kukambirana nthawi zambiri kumawoneka monga chonchi:
A: Kafukufuku amene akatswiri amapanga akuwonekera momveka bwino kuti kayendetsedwe ka kupondereza kuponderezedwa kwapambana kawiri, ndipo kupambana kumeneku kwakhala kwanthawi yaitali, pamene kusuntha kumeneku sikukhala kosasunthika. Kodi pali zifukwa zina zovomerezera kapena kuvomereza ngati njira yabwino yochitira nkhanza ngakhale kumvetsa kuti sizingatheke?
B: Chabwino, koma nchiyani chomwe chimapindula ngati chipambano? Ndipo sindikulimbikitsa zachiwawa. Ine ndikungosiya kulamula anthu oponderezedwa zomwe angachite. Sindikana kukana kumenyana kwawo ndi ufumu pokhapokha ngati ndikugwirizana ndi njira yanga. Si malo athu oti tilalikire anthu, koma kuwathandiza. Sindilephera kulemekeza ufulu wa mkaidi wandale wandale chifukwa adalimbikitsa chiwawa.
A: Koma mwawona kafukufuku? Mungayambe ndi buku la Erica Chenoweth ndi Maria Stephan. Kodi mukufuna buku? Kodi mukuganiza kuti pali chinachake chopambana pa zitsanzo zomwe zimaonedwa ngati zopambana? Sindinayambe ndagwirapo kapena ndikulakalaka ndikuchita chirichonse monga kulamula gulu lakutali la anthu zomwe ayenera kuchita. Ndakhala wokonzeka kuchita zinthu ngati ndikufuna, koma ndikuvomereza kuti maganizowa sanachitikepo ine ndisanayambe kukambirana mofanana ndi iyi. Ndikuwathandiza kumasula aliyense ku ndende ndipo choyamba ndikuwatsutsa. Ndimatsutsa kuponderezedwa kwapakhomo ndi kunja kwina kulikonse kaya anthu akutsutsa. Koma ngati wina afunsira uphungu wanga, ndiwawuza iwo kumvetsetsa kopambana komwe ine ndiri nako - zedi ndikulephera - za zoona. Kumvetsetsa kumeneko kumanena kuti chiwawa sichitha kulephera, ndipo kuti chilungamo chenichenicho sichikugwirizana ndi kuthekera kwa kulephera.
B: Koma ndi funso lokhazikitsa mgwirizano wadziko lonse kuti tipeze anthu ochita zachiwawa padziko lonse lapansi, ndipo sitingathe kuchita zimenezo popanda kulemekeza anthu enieni omwe akukhudzidwa ndi kuyesetsa kuti adzipulumutse ku machimo athu a ndalama. Ndipo sitingathe kulemekeza iwo, ndi kuwalemekeza iwo, ngati tiumiriza kuti achite zomwe timalangiza. Kodi Iraqi alibe ufulu wolimbana nawo? Ndipo kodi kumenyana kumeneku sikungapambane?
A: Sitili malo athu kuti tilalikire ozunzidwa ndi madola athu amisonkho komanso zolephera zathu zandale. Inu ndi ine sitingagwirizane pa mfundoyi. Koma, apa pali gawo lonyenga: ndithudi ndi malo athu monga anthu kutetezera miyoyo ya iwo omwe adzakhala osayenera komanso mopanda malire ophedwa ndi ovulala ndi okhumudwa ndi osakhala pokhala mu zoyesayesa zogwirizana ndi chifukwa chabwino. Ife tikuyenera kusankha kukhala pambali ya ozunzidwa - onsewo - kapena a ophedwawo. Dziko lonse lapansi linathetsa ukapolo ndi serfdom popanda mtundu wa chiwawa umene United States anaona mu 1860s ndipo sichidzapulumuka. Simungathe kupeza chifukwa choposa ukapolo ukapolo, koma pali zifukwa zambiri zowonongeka zomwe zikuyembekezera kuti zidzatengedwa. Bwanji ngati anthu a ku United States ataganiza kuti athetse kundende? Kodi tingafune kuti tipeze malo ena ndikupha wina ndi mamiliyoni, ndikupatsanso lamulo lomaliza kumangidwa? Kapena kodi tikufuna kulumpha moluntha kudutsa lamulo? Kodi sizotheka kuchita zinthu m'njira zabwino kuposa zomwe zakhala zikuchitika kale?
B: Choncho, Iraqi alibe ufulu wolimbana chifukwa mumadziwa bwino?
A: Ine ndiribe ntchito yambiri pa lingaliro la ufulu kapena kusowa kwake. Zedi, iwo akhoza kukhala ndi ufulu kumenyana mmbuyo, ndi ufulu woti agone pansi ndi kusachita kanthu, ndipo-pa nkhaniyi - ufulu wodya misomali. Koma izi sizikutanthauza kuti ndikanati ndikulimbikitseni kuchita chimodzi mwa zinthu zimenezo. Sindikudziwa kuti ndingamvetse bwanji izi, koma ndikupitirizabe kunena - sindiwawatsogolera kapena kuwalamula kapena kuwalamula. Ngati ali ndi zina zotchedwa kuti ndizoyenera kuti ndisanyalanyaze gehena yamuyaya! Koma kodi zimenezi zimatilepheretsa bwanji kukhala mgwirizano ndi anzathu? Kodi inu ndi ine ndife ogwirizana ndi abwenzi? Ndili ndi abwenzi m'mayiko omwe asilikali a United States akukhala omwe akudzipereka kuti asakanize, monga ine. Ena mwa iwo sathandizidwa kapena akusangalala ndi zochita za Taliban kapena ISIS kapena magulu osiyanasiyana kusiyana ndi ine.
B: Awa sindiwo okha magulu amene agwiritse ntchito kapena kugwiritsa ntchito chiwawa. Ndipo palinso anthu omwe amakakamizidwa kuti azigwiritsa ntchito nkhanza, monga momwe mungakhalira mutakhala mumdima wakuda.
A: Mukudziwa, ndatsutsana ndi mnyamata amene amaphunzitsa "makhalidwe" pa US Army's academy ku West Point, ndipo amagwiritsa ntchito njira yomweyi kuti awonetse nkhondo zaumphawi. Koma kumanga makina akuluakulu a imfa ndi kuwonetsera kwenikweni sikumagwirizana ndi mnyamata yekhayo mumdima wamdima - mnyamata yemwe, chifukwa choyenera, ali ndi zosankha zambiri kuposa momwe tingakonde kuziganizira. Kukonzekera kumenyana ndi nkhondo kumenyana kapena kuntchito kumakhalanso kofanana ndi mnyamata mmodzi mumdima wamdima. Pano njirayi ndi yaikulu ndithu. Makhalidwe osiyanasiyana osadziwika ndi aakulu. Zoonadi, chiwawa chingathe kupambana, ngakhale zazikulu, koma kuchita zinthu zosasinthika kumakhala kosavuta, mopanda kuwonongeka panjira, ndi anthu ambiri ogwirizana, ndi mgwirizano wopita patsogolo, ndipo kupambana kumakhala kolimba kwambiri.
B: Koma ngati anthu alidi okonzeka kuchita zachiwawa, kusankha ndiko kuwathandiza kapena kuwathandiza.
A: Chifukwa chiyani? Kodi sitingavomereze kutsutsana ndi zomwe amatsutsa, pomwe sitikugwirizana ndi momwe akutsutsira? Ndikuganiza kuti ndidziwe chifukwa chimodzi chomwe chimativuta kuti tichite zimenezo. Ndi chifukwa chomwe chimasonyeza kusamvana kwakukulu pakati pa ine ndi ine, koma ndikuganiza kuti tingathe kugwira ntchito ngati tikukambirana. Ndipo ndi izi. Pamene ndikupempha kuti udzipereke poyera kuchitetezo ku Washington, DC, kapena New York, kapena ku London, palibe chifukwa chofuna kulemekeza zokonda zachiwawa za gulu lakutali la abale ndi alongo athu akutali malo. Izi ndizo zomwe mumakonda pano ndi tsopano zomwe tikukumana nazo. Ndipo mudakayikira kuchita zopanda chinyengo, ngakhale kuti zingayambitse kuyenda kwathu, kufotokozera uthenga wathu mogwira mtima, ndi apolisi apolisi omwe amachititsa kuti anthu azikhala osagwirizana. Nthawi zina mumavomereza nane pa mfundo iyi, koma nthawi zambiri.
B: Chabwino, mwinamwake tingathe kuthetsa kuvomereza nthawi zambiri pazinthu izi, sindikudziwa. Koma vuto lomwelo limabuka: pali ogwirizana athu pano ndi omwe akufuna kugwiritsa ntchito chiwawa; palinso mikangano yokhudza zomwe zimawerengedwa ngati chiwawa. Sitingathe kumangapo kayendedwe ka anthu.
A: Ndipo izi zikukuthandizani bwanji? Kodi gululi ndi kuti? Inu mukhoza kufunsa funso lomwelo kwa ine, ndithudi. Koma ndiri ndi lingaliro lothandizira ndi umboni wochuluka wakuti njira imodzi yowonjezera mwayi wathu wofutukula kayendetsedwe kazochita ndikudzipereka poyera kuchitetezo chosasunthika, mwina mwa zochita zathu ku Belly wa Chirombo. Sitingathe kumangapo kayendetsedwe kake kupatulapo anthu ambiri omwe sakufuna kuchita ndi chiwawa. Inde, iwo akhoza kukonda mafilimu achiwawa ndi chiwawa zomwe zachitika ndi ndalama zawo za msonkho m'maina awo. Iwo akhoza kulekerera ndende zachiwawa ndi sukulu zachiwawa ndi maofesi achiwawa a ku Hollywood ndi apolisi achiwawa. Koma sakufuna chiwawa chilichonse pafupi ndi iwo okha.
B: Kotero mukufuna gulu la onyenga?
A: Inde ndi amantha ndi akuba ndi zodzikuza ndi achinyengo ndi zopotoka ndi zoperewera ndi otengeka ndi olemba mbiri komanso olemba mabuku komanso otsogolera ndi olimba mtima. Koma sitingakhale osasamala pamene tikuyesera kubweretsa aliyense. Titha kuyesa kulimbikitsa ndi kutulutsa zabwino mwa anthu momwe timadziwira, komanso ndikuyembekeza kuti amachitanso chimodzimodzi kwa ife.
B: Nditha kuona zimenezo. Koma inu mukufunabe kumusiya mnyamatayo ndi mfuti.
A: Koma kokha chifukwa mfuti imatha kupatulapo anyamata ambiri.
B: Eya, munanena choncho.
A: Chabwino. Chabwino, ndiroleni ndiyesere kunena chinthu chimodzi chokhudza mfuti. Ndikuganiza kuti pali njira yomwe imalamulira anthu opondereza omwe ali kutali omwe sali ofanana ndi zoletsedwa kapena mabomba kapena mfuti kapena imfa squads. Ndiko kupereka kwa katundu. Amwenye Achimereka anapatsidwa mabotolo odwala, koma anapatsidwa mowa. Amwenyewa anapatsidwa opiamu. Mukudziwa kuti mayiko osauka omwe akugwiritsidwa ntchito aperekedwa lero ndi mayiko olemera? Mfuti. Malo padziko lapansi omwe taphunzitsidwa kuti tiwone ngati achiwawa amapanga pafupifupi zida. Zidazo zimatumizidwa kuchokera kumpoto, ndipo makamaka kuchokera kumadzulo, ngati magalasi a magalasi odwala. Ndipo mfuti imapha anthu omwe akukhala m'mitundu omwe amawatumiza. Ndikuganiza kuti kukondwerera mfuti ngati njira yotsutsa ndiko kulakwitsa.
B: Chabwino, ndiyo njira imodzi yowonera. Koma pali anthu omwe amakhala m'madera amenewo omwe samawona momwemo. Mukuziwona mwanjira imeneyo kuchokera ku ofesi yanu yotetezeka, ya air-conditioned. Iwo samaziwona izo mwanjira imeneyo. Inu mukudziwa chomwe ife tiyenera kuchita? Tifunika kukhala ndi msonkhano, msonkhano, osati mpikisano, osati mtsutsano, koma kukambirana za kusagwirizana kumeneku, kukambirana bwino, kukambirana kwakukulu kotero kuti titha kudziwa komwe tingathe ndipo sitingagwirizane. Kodi mukuganiza kuti tingavomereze pa izo?
A: Mwamtheradi. Icho ndi lingaliro labwino kwambiri.
B: Uyenera kukhala gawo, ndithudi. Iwe unali kuwupha kwenikweni pa zina mwa mfundo izi.
A: Ndipo inu ndithudi. Inu mwakhala mukukhalamo kwenikweni.
