Feeling superior by making others inferior


“No one can make you feel inferior”- Eleanor Roosevelt
This is a quote that every people should keep in mind. In the world there are people who discriminate or treat bad other people just because they feel superior, and want to have a benefit. Every day this acts or violence increase and it affects our society.


Over two weeks ago, I heard that some people transported drugs to the United States and they make other people (called “mulas”) eat capsules of drugs, and when they arrive make the people release them. I think that this act is really bad and inhuman. Nobody should take advantage of other people because they can hurt them. With this example, first they are doing something bad by making him or her eat it, because it affects the organism, then they are cheating the police, and then when they make the people release them, they also give other substance (which again affects the organism). If they want to transport it like this, why don’t they do it to themselves? Are they being so “generous” by letting other people have this taste? Obviously not! They don’t want to hurt themselves.


Another act that is very common, and now in every city or town or even at schools is presented is: stealing. Why do people do this? Sometimes they don’t need it, but they just do it to hurt others. My question is, do they increase their self-steam by doing this? Maybe they feel powerful... Still, I think that there is no excuse for this act. I think that everyone should respect themselves and obviously others, so you should treat them well. We are all humans, and all of us have feelings!
