Umlingiswa weeNkokeli zethu: ubalulekile okanye awungeni?

Ngaba ucinga ukuba-imigaqo-nkqubo ecaleni-inkokheli yelizwe ledemokhrasi kufuneka ibe ngumntu onesidima kunye nokunyaniseka, ummi oqaqambileyo, iMensch?

Ngaba ufuna ukuba umntu oziphethe kakuhle, ahloniphe, kwaye abe nolwazi, abe ngumzekelo omkhuthazayo kulutsha (nabazali) abanqwenela ukulinganisa? Ngaba kufanelekile ukuba bazinikele ngakumbi kwilizwe nakubemi balo kunaye?

Kwilizwe elifanelekileyo, ndingathanda ukuphendula ngo-ewe ”kule mibuzo. Abanye banokucinga ukuba ndibona iphupha elingenakwenzeka, kwaye ngelishwa, "kwilizwe lokwenyani," banokuba banyanisile: Kuya kuba nzima ukufumana iinkokheli zopolitiko ezibandakanya zonke ezo mpawu.

Ukuqhubekeka nokwenza nzima imicimbi, siyazi ukuba ukuba ngumfuziselo womntu akuyomfuneko ekuqinisekiseni ubuchule obunobunkokeli obukhethekileyo, kwaye inkokeli eyonyuliweyo engamanyala engenazintloni inokufezekisa izinto ezithile ezincomekayo kwilizwe layo.

Xa abantu abadumileyo kunye namagorha ebhencwa kwaye ehlaziswa, ngequbuliso bayawa kubabalo. Ukuziphatha gwenxa komntu okanye ukungaziphathi kakuhle, zihlala ngokwesondo, ezinxulumene neziyobisi, ezinobundlobongela, okanye ubuqhetseba kwindalo, zenzeka kwimisebenzi emininzi eluntwini, njengemidlalo, ukonwaba kunye neshishini.

Ukuvezwa kwabo kulandelwa ngokungathandabuzekiyo ziintambo zasesidlangalaleni, ukugwetywa kweendaba, okanye ukucinywa kwimisebenzi. Ukugwetywa kwinkundla yezimvo zoluntu kungakhokelela nakwinkundla yomthetho.

Andenzi sizathu seziphene zabo okanye indlela yokuziphatha egwenxa, kwaye ukuba kufanelekile, kufanele ukuba bohlwaywe. Kodwa inyani kukuba, batyikitye ukuba babe neetalente ngokungaqhelekanga kubugcisa babo, kwifom yobugcisa, kwezemidlalo, okanye kubungcali. Bazinceda iimfuno zethu zeenkwenkwezi, kwaye basonwabisa, mhlawumbi basonwabisa thina, saza nathi, sabancoma ngempumelelo yabo ebalaseleyo.

Kodwa khange batyikitye ukuba babe ngabemi abahloniphekileyo kunye nemizekelo yokuziphatha esingathanda ukuba babe yiyo, ethi ichaze ukuphoxeka kwethu nokugculelwa ngesiquphe xa besilela eluvavanyweni.

Kodwa amagosa anyuliweyo kunye neenkokheli zopolitiko bakudidi olwahlukileyo kwaye kufuneka babanjwe kwinqanaba eliphezulu lokuziphatha komntu. Benze, enyanisweni, "basayina": Ukufezekisa i-ofisi yoluntu kubandakanya uxanduva lokuhlala kunye nobunkokeli. Abemi balindele ukuba iinkokeli zabo zifanele ukuhlonitshwa kwaye bafuna ukuziva ngathi baneentliziyo zabo kwaye bangabantu abathembekileyo nabanesidima.

Ukuba uninzi lufunyenwe luswele ayisiyongxaki yomlo, njengoko iinkokeli ezinokusilela zivela kumacala asekhohlo nawasekunene kwibala lezopolitiko.

Uninzi lwe-invective ejolise kuMongameli uTrump ijolise kwizenzo zakhe zobuqu, amazwi ahlaselayo kunye nokuziphatha kwezentlalo. (Andibhekiseli kwimigaqo-nkqubo yakhe nakwimo yakhe yengqondo, zombini ezixoxwa ngokubanzi kwimithombo yeendaba). Ezi mpawu zikumboniso ocacileyo wama-24/7 kwinkangeleko yakhe esidlangalaleni, kwiintetho, kudliwanondlebe, ekuziphatheni kwaye kunjalo, kwii-tweets zakhe.

Uthethe ngokubamba abantu basetyhini ngendlela engafanelekanga kwaye uye wonakalisa imbonakalo yabo kunye namandla abo. Ubajongele phantsi abagxeki bakhe bezopolitiko, kwaye wathetha gwenxa iinyani kunye nempumelelo. Uthethe amazwi ovelwano ngohlanga olunobundlobongela kunye neo-Nazi, wahlekisa ngentatheli enengxaki kwaye wathuka utata wejoni eliwile.

Ukhuthaze ubundlobongela kumajelo eendaba kunye ne-hecklers kwaye uxhase ubuzwe babantu. Uyazicekisa izifundo zembali, ubuzakuzo kunye nesayensi.

Kwaye okwangoku: Uhlala ethambile kwaye ethandeka kwisiseko sakhe esithandekayo, esithanda amagunya akhe olawulo. Okukhona besiva ngezenzo zakhe ezimbi kunye novuyo lwakhe ekungcikiveni “iintshaba” zakhe, kokukhona baya betsaleleka kuye.

Ukugqabhuka ngomsindo kweenkokeli kuqhelekile kulawulo oluninzi ngasekhohlo nasekunene. Ngoku sibona populism enomsindo efanayo evakaliswa ngoozwilakhe okwangoku besemandleni okanye bekhula "njengeendlalifa-ezibonakalayo" kwamanye amazwe amaninzi. Ubuntu babasemagunyeni ngokungathandabuzekiyo buxhokonxa izimvo eziphikisanayo, zinconywa ngabaxhasi kwaye zingxoliswa ngabagxeki.

Xa abantu bejonga izicatshulwa ezifanayo zosasazo, izinto abazithathayo zahluka ngokuphawulekayo, kuxhomekeke kubudlelwane babo okanye ekuvukeleni inkokeli. Bajonge iziqwengana ezifanayo kodwa baphikise kabukhali izimvo malunga noko bakubonileyo. Ifilimu yeklasikhi URashomon, ikhokelwe ngu-Akira Kurosawa omkhulu, wabonisa ngokucacileyo abantu abathathe inxaxheba kwiziganeko ezifanayo bekhumbula iiakhawunti ezahlukileyo kakhulu zezinto abanamava kuzo.

Iimbono ziphantsi kobuqhetseba kwaye iinkolelo ezinzulu zinokoyisa iinyani ezibonakalayo. Olwam uphando ngokwamalungu enkolo ayinyani abonisa ukuba ukunyanzelwa kwenkokeli ekhohlisayo kunokuyigqwetha ngokupheleleyo imbono, ukuqonda, kunye nokuguqula iimvakalelo. Ayisiyonto nje eyenzeka ngengozi ukuba iinkokeli zehlelo likaMesiya kunye ne-demagogue bobabini batsale abantu abangonelisekanga bubomi babo kwaye bafuna iimpendulo.

Xa abantu besindwa ziingxaki zemali bahlala phakathi kobutyebi, kwaye xa beziva bengakhuselekanga ngotshintsho olukhawulezileyo lwetekhnoloji kunye noluntu, bayonqena. Xa kungekho kuphumla emehlweni kwaye becinga ukuba iimeko zabo ezimbi ziya zisiba mandundu, bayadimazeka, baphelelwe lithemba, kwaye baphelelwe lithemba.

Basesichengeni ngokukodwa kumagama akhangayo enkokheli yamagneti evakalisa uvelwano olunzulu kwaye inika ukuthembeka kusizi lwabo kunye nomsindo. Inkokeli ibamba amandla abo ngenxa yokudana kwaye ngovelwano "uyayidlala" kubo.

Inkokeli enobuntu iqinisekisa abaphulaphuli bayo ukuba "uzifumana" iinkxalabo zabo kwaye wabelana ngokuxokozela kunye nomsindo wabo. Uhlala etyhola "abanye" ekhaya nakwamanye amazwe ngokubandezeleka kwabo, kwaye uzibophelela ukohlwaya okanye ukubakhupha. Uthembisa ukukhokelela abalandeli bakhe kwindlela ecacileyo eya kubomi obungcono kunye nolonwabo lomntu.

Ezi zithembiso zivakalelwa ngathi “yimana evela ezulwini,” izipho ezimangalisayo zesisa abazinikwa yinkokeli enombono ngokwenyani.

Ngoku ndiyakubuza: Zeziphi iimpawu zobuqu zenkokeli ezinokubhenela kubemi abanxungupheleyo naboyikisayo: Ingqibelelo-Civility-Reason-Benevolence, okanye Ingqumbo-Ubundlongondlongo-Ukugunyazisa-I-Nativism?

Kwaye ngakumbi ngokobuqu, loluphi uhlobo lwenkokeli olubalulekileyo kuwe nakubantwana bakho?
