Ronald Mutebi, The Kabaka of Buganda |
We
make peace by accepting to be dominated than pursuing equality and justice. Do
you agree?
I
know you want think about it for a minute, but just continue reading through
the lines.
Families,
nations and the world are governed by domination, imposed through conflicts,
conspiracies, war and policing. USA is the world’s police. You know how it got
there. We could choose to avoid all these conflicts and wars by just accepting
to be dominated.
Those
that agitate for equality and justice threaten this domination and evoke
tension, conflict and war.
Actually,
those that are fighting to have equality and justice are fighting to dominate. Martin
Luther, Nelson Mandela fought to actually have black people dominate in
determining their own destiny. Husbands are fighting to dominate over wives and
children. Bosses are fighting to dominate over employees.
You
know domination could takes all forms be it domination of ideas, resources,
power, decision making etc.
Therefore,
we could accept and help in guarantying one people to dominate over the other
to have peace in the world, nations and families other than talking of justice
and equality.

This
line of thinking works this way. When you accept domination, you obey, submit
and became a subject of an authority. Once the authority is convinced of all
the former, then there are no circumstances for tension and conflict. The
authority now finds means of taking good care of the subject without inflicting
any harm.
Such,
is the relationship between man and God, a Muganda and Kabaka etcetera. Imagine
what the world would be if man wanted to be at equal footing with God, all
Baganda demanded equal treatment as the Kabaka.
All
other creations, have accepted to be dominated by man and submit to him. Can
you imagine if all animals went up in arms to demand being treated equally and
just as man, from man?
If
only we could realize, accept and reciprocate this law of peaceful coexistence, peace would be in relationships,
workplace, families, nations and the world.
