Mohammad Fazeli: Protesters are the majority of society
Mohammad Fazeli, a former assistant professor at Shahid Beheshti University, says, ‘I am certain that the protesters make up a very large majority of society, but I don’t know what percentage of the protesters are at the opposite pole.’
When insults become mainstream and are turned into a game, it shows that society has naturally become polarized, and in the political sphere, some want to take advantage of this natural process.
Examining and analyzing Twitter and comments and the types of reactions show that society has become polarized, and both sides lack much capacity for dialogue.
Polarization is a danger for society because it makes understanding, dialogue, and formulating any non-violent solution impossible.
