‘Circular Reasoning;’ A trick Used by Evil Men and Women.

This is where your reasoning is useless at best, but you cloth it in layers of emotional blackmail and guilt tripping.

It’s basically using an EFFECT to justify a CAUSE.

Remember cause and effect? Where for every action there is a reaction?

In this case, you use the REACTION to justify your ACTION. 

For instance…

You incite naive and desperate youth into violent demos, knowing too well that such demos will lead to looting and running battles with the police.

Why do it then?

Your hope is that some of the people you incited into demos are injured…or BETTER yet, are killed.

The lives of these vijana mean NOTHING to you. To you, they are pawns in a chess game. Can be sacrificed anytime.

Jackpot, at least according to you, is when some innocent bystander (some woman, student or a toddler) is accidentally killed during the fracas! 

Then Boom!

You have an excuse to be on the streets! 

Now, if you are asked why, you are on the streets…

You claim you are there to protest the killings and mourn your heroes.

REMEMBER, the people you are mourning would still be alive had you not incited people into violence.

Anyway…

Should a business owner complain about his/her looted business or destroyed property…

You slap them with “you mean you are comparing human life with a business”

Out of guilt, businesses will not complain because they can’t compare “vitu sa dunia” with human life.

You are now a victim of state brutality and get sympathy from the same people you are hurting!

You repeat this, till you get what you want…which could be a government tender you missed, more donor funding or even a political seat! 

It’s a trick that has worked for terrorists over the ages!

And, it works even better if you live in a country where the President truly believes in democracy and freedom of expression like Kenya!

As long as the inciters (in their air-conditioned rooms…some even in foreign countries) have never ending supply of youth to sacrifice, your sympathy after the sacrifice and the guilt never to question them…

Be ready to be terrorized till kingdom come!

And that, ladies and gentlemen, is what we are currently witnessing in Kenya!
