“That’s that, this is that.”

essay

こちらは京都大学11月祭で過去に採用された統一テーマの一つ。

In the first place, it’s a word that was chosen for the unifying theme of “Whatever,” so it’s appropriate and it’s just the way I like to say it, but if you keep this word in mind…

議論のポイントを適切に分解できたり論点を混同せず本質をつかみやすい

I think it has such an unexpected effect.

For example…

Example 1: Professor Yamanaka is reported to have won the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine

The news was announced just when I was on a trip to Greece. It was a wonderful news that made me feel very proud as a Japanese, but for some reason, when I came back to Japan, all I heard was the news of iPS transplant misinformation.

After that, other third parties continued to excessively criticize the misinformation, and as soon as the media realized that the results were fabricated, they repeatedly reported not only the alleged fabrication of the man himself, but also attacked his personality. In addition, there were many opinions on the Internet about such reports being made every day, such as “the mass media is still low level”.

It is true that fabrication and misinformation are not good. In itself, the cause should be properly investigated and thorough measures should be taken to prevent such things from happening in the future, and the misinformation itself should be condemned. I also understand the feeling that attacking individuals more than necessary is undesirable.

More recently, there was a flurry of arguments from ministers for and against sending washing machines.

But…

山中教授の素晴らしい成果に対し正当に評価している多くの機関や多くの人々がいる。

So, there is no change in the fact that

Example 2: Osaka Mayor Hashimoto and Asahi Weekly

The issue of Mayor Hashimoto’s refusal to be interviewed by the Asahi Group over a feature in Asahi Weekly. I don’t like to deal with such political and human rights issues in this personal blog, but I thought this was a good example, so I decided to mention it.

I’m not going to go into the details of what the uproar was about, but as expected, it seems that various opinions have emerged regarding the human rights issues that Hashimoto himself initially claimed.

For example, the following column.

週刊朝日は謝罪すべきではなかったし、連載を続けるべきだった(橘玲) – BLOGOS(ブロゴス) http://blogos.com/article/48722/

Here, I haven’t read it properly, but I’m sure the arguments in this column are compelling in their own right.

が、しかし、「属性攻撃は説得力を下げる – モジログ」 でまさにおっしゃている通り、

相手のイメージダウンを狙った属性攻撃は、むしろ属性攻撃している人の品位を疑わせ、その主張の説得力を下げてしまう。

So, there is no change in the fact that

Example 3: Statement by the President of ZOZOTOWN

It seems to be a bit of a local topic on the internet, but in the last few days, it seems that the internet has become a hot topic with the Twitter flames of Mr. Yusaku Maezawa, the president of Start Today, which operates ZOZOTOWN.

ヤマトの宅配会社の人が、汗水たらして運んでいるのは忘れてはならない事実 – 脱社畜ブログ http://dennou-kurage.hatenablog.com/entry/2012/10/21/115725

It is true that I have been indebted to this shipping company on a daily basis, and I cannot bear the feeling of gratitude. So, I understand what the president is saying.

However, on the other hand, that Amazon is also making an effort to raise the fee for this sweat and toil with some kind of efficiency, so it can be evaluated as such, and I understand the feelings of the consumers who took for granted the services of such Amazon and complained about it! I can understand the feelings of the consumers who took Amazon’s service for granted and complained.

But…

公共の場、SNSでの他人に対する罵詈雑言はよくない。

So, there is no change in the fact that

It’s “that’s that, this is that.”

たとえどのような報道や考えがされようとも、「これ」を意識しておけば様々な見解に対して「そこそこ」余裕を持って振る舞うことができると思っています。
