In Bangladesh, people think they are right. Whatever they think is right is right. And everyone is wrong who is not like that. Then, they have the right to force people to do whatever they feel is right.
People do not tolerate others' opinions or views. They form gangs and then force individuals or small groups to follow their thoughts.
They make that happen in the name of religion, tradition, sensitive thoughts, modernization, to achieve success, etc.
Let me give you a simple example. A person thinks that eating fruit right after a meal is not good. Then they found someone who is doing so. The first person will tell their surroundings that we don't eat fruit after the meal. It's not good. Who does that? Only that shameful person is doing that. That person isn't good. See how that person looks and how they wear dresses, all bad. Everybody around them will start thinking, correct! What a shameful person. One of the crowd will say See how that person walks, not good. Everybody will say right! We agree. Then one will say, when that person touches a fruit, I will take it from their hand and ask them to leave. All will think, what a great idea! That person has to do what we believe is right. Why do they try to be something else? We can't let that happen!
Nobody from that crowd will ever say, "It's okay. It's their choice. Let them be what they want to be." No way. Nobody wants to make the crowd go against them. They will keep supporting and bringing new ideas to make life miserable for that other kind of person.
