Diferenta intre experienta personala si simpatia citita prin carti

Imaginea asta mi se pare ca exprima cel mai bine discrepanta intre simpatizarea unor miscari extremiste si first hand experience-ul cu respectiva miscare. Prea multi oameni ce nu au experimentat situatii se bat cu tarie in piept si emana pareri despre situatiile respective. Nu zic ca este un lucru rau, dar cateodata mai trebuie sa iti vezi varful nasului.

Si eu ma simt vinovat de asta. Cateodata am pareri atat de fixiste despre lucruri pe care nu le-am experimentat ... incat si eu merit o poseta in cap. "Pustiule taci in #$@%* ma-tii ca nu ai idee despre ce vorbesti" - uiti repede ca este greu sa iti imaginezi lucruri ce n-au reprezentat realitatea ta niciodata.

The photo was taken at a provocative demonstration by ten Neo-Nazis at the corner of Norrgatan-Kronobergsgatan in Växjö (very close to another demonstration by the communist party). The Nazis were attacked by the public and chased to the Växjö train station where they locked themselves in the bathroom - and had to be rescued by police.

It is said [?] that the lady with the bag committed suicide after constant threats and harassment from Neo-Nazis. The photo was awarded “Photo of the Century”.  (source)
