How do you legalize any phenomenon, from euthanasia to cannibalism?
by Evgueni Gorzhaltsán
In today's society of tolerance, which has no fixed ideal and as a result, no clear division between good and evil, there is a technique to change the attitude toward popular concepts considered totally unacceptable.
This technique, called "The Overton Window" and consists of a specific sequence of actions to achieve the desired result, "may be more effective than the nuclear charge as a weapon to destroy human communities," writes columnist Evgueni Gorzhaltsán.
In his article in the Adme portal puts the radical example of how to turn acceptable the idea of ??legalizing step by step, from the stage is considered a disgusting and unthinkable action, completely oblivious to public moral cannibalism, to become a reality accepted by mass consciousness and the law. This is not achieved by washing direct brain but in more sophisticated techniques are effective due to its coherent and consistent implementation without society realize the process, create Gorzhaltsán.
First stage: the unthinkable to radical
Obviously, now the question of legalization of cannibalism is at the lowest level of acceptance in the "window of opportunity" Overton, because society considers as absurd and unthinkable phenomenon taboo.
To change that perception, can, relying on freedom of expression, refer the matter to the scientific field, as for scientists there is normally no taboo subjects. Therefore, we may conclude, for example, an ethnological symposium on exotic rituals of the tribes of Polynesia and discuss the history of the topic and get authoritative statements about cannibalism, ensuring the transition from negative and intransigent attitude society to a more positive attitude.
Simultaneously, create a radical group of cannibals, although there is only on the Internet, you will surely be noticed and quoted by numerous media. As a result of the first stage of Overton, taboo subject disappears and starts unacceptable discussed.
Second stage: from radical than acceptable
at this stage, follow quoting scientists, arguing that one can not shield themselves to be knowledgeable about cannibalism, because if someone refuses to talk about it will be considered a bigoted hypocrite .
In condemning intolerance, it is also necessary to create a euphemism for the phenomenon itself to dissociate the essence of the issue of its name, spread the word of its meaning. Thus, cannibalism becomes "cannibalism" and later on "anthropophily".
Similarly, you can create a precedent reference, historical, mythological, contemporary or simply invented, but more importantly is it legitimate, so it can be used as evidence that the anthropophily in principle can be legalized.
Third stage: from acceptable to the sensible
At that stage, it is important to promote ideas such as: "the desire to eat people is genetically justified", "sometimes a person has to resort to that, if compelling circumstances exist" or "a free man has the right to decide that eats ".
The real opponents to these concepts, ie, the ordinary people who will not be indifferent to the problem, intentionally turn public opinion in radical enemies whose role is to represent the image of crazed psychopaths, aggressive opponents anthropophily callers burn alive cannibals, along with other representatives of minorities.
Experts and journalists at this stage show that during the history of mankind always were times when people ate each other, and that was normal.
