Document Summary
Wideo with people shouting with a flag. What it looks like: some sort of movement, revolution of sorts. Actual context: they"re celebrating the pakistani team winning a cricket game. But the original context was wrong - commenting was turned off so people could not actually comment on the commentary. We are programmed to think of certain images when we hear the word terrorist . You"ll always perceive a freedom fighter" as a terrorist" from the other side. The article doesn"t even mention the race, but the author added the image to create a certain image and evoke an emotion. The construct: non-centralized, hybrid construct with small pockets of control. However, they take responsibility and credit for all events. Original use of the flag was for peace - the proliferation of nuclear arms. The purpose changed, but the concepts remained the same. The idea that there is on and off.
