Who gets the blame?
There is something happening in the world, good or bad, it can affect us in the most positive way as it can be negative. We all are capable of doing things and making a difference for good or bad to others. With the decisions we make and the actions we do, there is always someone in discomfort. The problem is that most people don’t value the same things and with the same intensity like we do. That is why there is someone mad at us without doing something bad.
World politics is the same. Whatever a country does, we all are affected by its decisions and actions. If we all had the same culture, traditions, laws, and mentality, we could all be the same, but having different values and ideas enriches our life.
We may think that the world is in chaos because there are politicians and economical interests, that we are victims of a world order that plans to harm us. It is easy to blame others, even if they don’t exist, we think that by blaming someone or something we all can be sure to eliminate the problem, have a scapegoat so the world order is restored. The problem is that there is no one to blame but us.
We are to blame in the things we expect others to do but we don’t want to do them because we think that is another man’s job. We make the world, we build the future, not others. The change starts with us.

«With the decisions we make and the actions we do, there is always someone in discomfort.» I agree with this statement, as people have different perspectives and values, which can make society fall into subjectivism or relativism, but we have to be clear that ethical currents look their own good, while ethics looks for good on itself, in the action. Therefore, not because someone is in discomfort means your actions are wrong, it is just a perspective.
