THE  FEEL AND MEANING OF SEALING SOMEONE’S 
MOUTH AND ADDRESSING IN ANY LANGUAGE
( A MUTED PERSON’S REAL LIFE AGONY )
 

Sir Isaac Newton when wrote what is called “Newton’s 3^rd Law”, which precisely says “Every Action has an Equal and Opposite Reaction”, possibly could not think at that time that something may come in between so that this universal law may fail to operate ( may be artificially withheld ) some times.

It is a fact that, when Newton wrote his 3rd law, at that time, information technology was not so developed as it is today; and the extensive social media platforms did not exist then.  Therefore, he could not think about any intervening factor that may come in between and block the “Equal and Opposite Reaction” to “Every Action”.  

That is where the Principle of Fair and Equity comes into play. Unfortunately, in the present day’s social media communication platforms it is a pity, that the Newton’s 3^rd Law can be in-operative by the illegal and criminal actions of something called as Administrators or Moderators.

It is like, if you stitch both the lips of a person and seal his mouth, then start abusing the person in any language and whatever way even in vulgar and slangs, the person whose lips have been stitched and his mouth has been sealed, will not be able to utter a word in return; then how is the Newton’s 3^rd Law going to operate there? Therefore, the Newton’s 3^rd Law has a nexus with the Principle of Fair and Equity. Where the Fair and Equity will be missing, the Newton’s 3^rd Law will not be able to be operational, that possibly Sir Isaac Newton being a genius and great mathematical scientist, could not visualize.

This is exactly happening in Social Media platforms of Groups, I can say with concrete evidence of a Facebook Group. In a Professional Facebook Group of the Alumni of a Premier Business School of India, where there are about 2400 Group Members, a member’s account was muted illegally and criminally by another member ( like a hooligan ) who has acquired the Administrator rights by holding an Office Bearer position(in the capacity of the office bearer) the term of which has already been completed and over almost a year back. Such Hooligan Administrator who is still holding the Administrator Rights has misused it and both illegally and criminally has muted the account of the member. Therefore, the muted member is in a situation like a person whose both lips have been stitched and the mouth has been sealed. Where as there are a lot of members coming to the said Facebook Group of 2400 members approximately and saying whatever they want on the muted member, while some are saying very bad and making quite offensive and abusive comments, that is quite unfair and inhuman for the muted person who is watching it helplessly but can not utter a single word other than going through the pains of shear mental torture of the situation created by such Hooligan Administrator who has acted illegally and criminally out of his whims and fancies. The muted professional member is helpless and going through the torture; like keeping both the lips of a person stitched and abusing in any language in front of him, exactly same situation as I explained above. While many of the members of the said group have been quite sympathetic to the muted member, it is a pity that the members of the 40-batches of Alumni of a Business School approximately about 2400 in number are watching this situation silently allowing the Hooligan Administrator who has acted criminally to continue with his illegal and criminal stand unabated.

The Hooligan Administrator of the said Group is trying to stall an Election of the Professional Association of the Group of Alumni of a Business School of India in such inhuman manner by muting the genuine and upright member who has been working very hard and raising issues for the Election of the Association to be conducted soon. In fact, the democratic rights of the muted member has been hijacked and taken hostage by muting the member, such a sad state of affairs…

Hopefully the 2400-members of the Professional Group mentioned above in the Facebook will rise to the occasion and give a proper lesson to the Hooligan Administrator very soon.

In any case, the members of the Group said above, who have come and said whatever and in whatever language ( referring to the bad and very bad comments, taunting and abusive comments that are quite unbearable for a normal person ), its human feel and meaning must be understood by the other members of the group, while the hapless member who has been targeted and muted; his both lips have been stitched and his mouth has been sealed. Yes, if some members who could not react on normal circumstances and have found it easy to speak whatever bad they wanted to say on the muted member they have taken their vengeance out, however, do you think that the situation has been a situation of Fair and Equity for the muted member of the group in a civilized society? Has it been human ? The readers can think about it and if they belong to the referred group by chance, must play a constructive role to teach a proper lesson to the Hooligan Administrator…..
