Everybody must remember something we all learned in Elementary or Secondary School, called “Logical Biconditional” or “Logical Mathematics”,…

So, where is the War here?

In order to help us to understand this Truth Table, our teachers and professors, using the following examples:

1. The friend of my friend is my friend.
T ↔ T => T
2. The friend of my enemy is my enemy.
T ↔ F => F
3. The enemy of my friend is my enemy.
F ↔ T => F
4. The enemy of my enemy is my friend.
F ↔ F => T

There are a few main problems here:

1. First problem here is, if I remeber correct, that we in Serbia learned this in one of first 4 years of elementary school (along with learning numbers and basic math operations).
There is no reason to learn this so early in life, especially becuase this is just part of huge theory or mix of theories which are used in many areas – from Computer Science to Pshyholgy and Lingustics …

2. Examples itself, especially 4th, is well known in history as “Theory of 3-sided conflict” or many other names for this “theory”.

*It’s very important to connect both points – age when people learn this and where that example from point 2 leads to.

I always asked myself why we are so divided in each area of life? Red Star vs Partizan, Real vs Barcelona, East vs West, USA vs Russia, …

Looks like “they” (now we are diving to conspiracy theory – “they” as people/groups who lead this world) pushing us to be “divided” and to choose one side of “conflict” in each area of life.

Why is that important for “them”?
– In peace and non-conflict society nobody makes money 🙂
