How to maintain peace

As long as individuals allow themselves to be cognitively intoxicated to inflict violence on others instead of questioning the intoxicators and really getting to know others to obtain reliable data, peace will be very fragile.

It must be recognized that it is technically difficult when the intoxication is carried out in a unidirectional way, for example by consuming a media or by attending a conversation in which one does not participate, but it is never impossible. In this case, it is recommended to question yourself a posteriori.

It is also difficult when the language used is not clear or when the communication is based on allusions rather than on explicitly stated precise facts. In this case, it is prudent to invite the issuers to explain, then to verify the data by soliciting the participation of all the protagonists.

People who allow themselves to be cognitively intoxicated often do not have the right tools to question, or forbid it because they have been unconsciously programmed to do so.

Hiding from a person the factual data they would need to protect themselves and have their rights respected is a form of cognitive violence, which can go as far as not assisting a person in danger.
