en-A kapitalizmus torzító ereje

"CAPITALIS"

This is an idea rising from the depths, blinding, and like a flood, it forces the earth down. Under the plastered wall, rotting mud brick, with black mold inside!
This idea circles among us, poisoning the people like swine fever to pigs; it grinds them down, and with helpless eyes, they rot away in a bucket.
While it would live freely, it could die where it desires. We execute it, so no harm comes to us, and with a charming grin, our greatest worry:
What will be on our table tomorrow!
Who will execute us? Ourselves?
Let us think about this: If there will be no more, what will happen then?
Should we urinate in the neighbor's garden – will that make things better? And throw a brick, because your paprika has crossed over again!
Let's do the same in the city, but this time let's use a used condom and throw it over to them, because this trash got the aid faster!
It's easy to be cruel, because it requires no thought; begging, humbling, despising is not difficult either. But once again, I say: Let us think about it: If there will be no more, what will happen then?
What will happen? Nothing! The neighbor will throw the brick back, and next time he will poop on your side. In the city, you'll get a kilo of condoms back, and they'll break the key in your door so you can't go out, saying "I'll kill you, you jerk!"
Then you come out, and immediately he hits your face with a hammer; he's afraid of his hands, and he'll have your corpse removed, so it won't get exposed! A person becomes a killer if he doesn't listen to his instincts.
That's why I say! Build a house with a clean heart. Go to the neighbor's house, invite him! Give him some pálinka, lunch, some paprika for the road, and ask him to help you pass the bricks – and he will help!
In the city, knock on his door with a bottle of wine, tell him that they gave it along with the aid, you heard they have grandchildren! Ask a lot, show you care! Argue, talk, but don't be arrogant!
Nature is beautiful and good, but if this idea infects us, don't be surprised if the neighbor tries to sabotage us. So once again, I say: Let us think about it: If there will be no more, what will happen then! (B.G.)

Social tensions often accumulate invisibly, like a boiling, simmering cauldron that slowly but surely overflows. People often get caught up in situations where indifference, meaninglessness, or the transfer of responsibility becomes dominant. On this ground, contempt and blaming others can easily emerge, which eventually leads to hostility.

Rousseau: "The first man who enclosed a piece of land, and said, 'This is mine,' and found others who believed him, was the true founder of civil society. How many crimes, wars, murders, how much poverty and misery would have been avoided by the one who had torn the posts from the ground and shouted, 'Do not listen to him! The land belongs to no one and to everyone!'"

The atmosphere of distrust and division can become toxic. It's as if communities and individuals are gradually building walls between each other, made of bricks formed from suspicion, jealousy, and animosity. A person can easily become cold, even cruel, because indifference and self-interest can evoke stronger instincts. The tension feeds itself: a malicious gesture breeds more anger until the conflict eventually erupts.

However, the solution is often simple: openness, sincere curiosity, and the intent to listen with understanding. A small gesture—a glass of wine, a friendly conversation, or a helping hand—can dissolve the tensions that suspicion and hostility have nurtured for years.

The question is: are we willing to step out from behind our walls? Because if we don't, the consequences won't just fall back on us, but will also contaminate the world around us. The decision is ours: shall we turn against each other, or shall we support one another and build our communities together?
