The Buddha Project Reply To: Y2Q2) The intoxication of anger and desire
As Buddhists, we believe that Right Speech takes priority over Free Speech. Put simply, Right Speech means abstaining from gossip and talk which is false, malicious, or harsh. Write only what you believe to be true and relevant, voicing your opinion with kindness and patience. Avoid worldly, partisan, or discriminatory topics and remarks that are patriarchal, misogynist, sexist, racist, anti-semitic, pro-nazi, bio essentialist, xenophobic, transphobic, homophobic or any other kind of hateful views even if such advocacy is couched in terms of ‘discussing the texts’ or ‘maintaining tradition’.

The ignorance of not seeing Things as THEY Realy are makes you Believe That the results of anger and desire will bring you relief and satisfaction. however they lead you in the opposite direction. You only generate suffering for yourself and others. You get locked in a endless growing closed circle of dissatisfaction and suffering. Because your vision is not in accordance with reality you are generating the opposite of what you want and you become a slave of emotions that poisons all around.
