The era we live in is characterized by upheavals at all levels of society: international wars, ethnic conflicts, economic and political crisis, crisis of moral values, rapid development and, at the same time, reckless use of technology. A jumble of upheavals and readjustments that change the way people live every day. In this barrage of developments and information, the human psyche does not remain unscathed. It is often observed that an aggressive rhetoric develops towards anything foreign, different, not the same as our own perceptions, often resulting in the manifestation of aggressive behaviors and the reproduction of hatred. Hate rhetoric appears in the form of written or spoken speech, in images, symbols, electronic or other games, but also in any form that aims to express or disseminate a message of violence.
Particularly in the world of electronic communication and social media, criticism easily dominates, rather than the effort to understand the opposing perception or the different. How easily is an aggressive rhetoric produced and adopted, often without much thought, which often imperceptibly poisons the inner world of children, and how necessary is it for children to practice critically reading information, wherever it comes from and wherever it is transmitted?
How can we build a new world of mutual respect and acceptance, founded on understanding and love?
