Is there a relationship between scapegoating and herd mentality? Explain.

English

ASHA 777 [7]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Scapegoating is the practice of singling out a person or group for unmerited blame and consequent negative treatment. Herd mentality describes how people can be influenced by their peers to adopt certain behaviors on a largely emotional, rather than rational, basis. So yes, in a way, there is a connection between the two simply based on their definitions.

Explanation:

Let’s use bullying as an example:

Jason and his “friends” are outside after lunch and one of his friends begins to pick on a younger, defenseless kid because they’re wearing glasses. Then, Jason and his other friends (that were not previously butting in) join the friend’s berating because Jason and his friends think it’ll make them look cool and sound intimidating, even though it is a very irrational idea.

Now, you have scapegoating. Luke singles out and tortures a kid because they’re not wearing the “most in” shoes. See the similarities?

Hope this helps!

A two paragraph of a moral dilemma that a girl would think of on the bus
alisha [4.7K]

Well, everyone travels with a purpose so the moral dilemma that the girl would be facing rather depends on her destination, in my opinion.

So it can be either Happy or sad I.e Any function in her family or any sick relatives.

It can also be this way that she might be visiting her ancestral place so she's having a high time reliving her old days or thinking of a new experience

Or Another prompt would be

She would be listening to a song which connects to her memories where the main concentration will be on her past rather than the destination. Here her dilemma is how to overcome her past and not live in those memories
