Pablo Motos has taken advantage of the last moments of ‘The Anthill’ this Tuesday, in which he received a visit from the Colombian singer and composer Camilofor ‘Overdoing’, a section that he had not starred in since last May 7, when he reflected on his luck. On this occasion, the driver of the entertainment space Atresmedia which is broadcast from Monday to Thursday between 9:45 p.m. and 10:45 p.m. on Antenna 3 has reflected on the discussions.
Pablo Motos goes too far in ‘El Hormiguero’
“I’ve been looking and the word scold comes from the Latin meaning to grunt, like pigs. So, today we are going to go overboard talking about fighting, because we spend our lives fighting. You walk down the street and see loving couples arguing when they should be kissing and hugging; you see parents scolding their children; to those who are driving arguing among themselves; you see cyclists scolding pedestrians who are on the bike lane; to pedestrians scolding cyclists who go like crazy without looking… Everybody arguing“, Pablo Motos began his reflection.
“The officials, those who do not have their papers in order; the teachers scolding the students; the parents of the students wanting to eat the teachers who dare to scold their children; the doctors scolding the patients who do not comply with the treatment; the politicians arguing among themselves and among us; the talk show participants arguing according to the color of their interests; the reality show contestants arguing until they cried; the priests scolding the faithful while threatening them with eternal fire… And then if you ask people, it turns out that no one likes to argue“continued the presenter of ‘El Hormiguero’
“Everyone tells you that they don’t like to waste time trying to convince anyone that they are wrong, which already gives us the first clue as to why we spend our lives arguing, because we believe that everyone who doesn’t think like us is wrong. For that, and for another reason, because even though we deny it, we love to argue. Arguing is an addiction like sugar, like the cell phone. There is something within us that makes us feel that we have a lot at stake when arguing. Winning or losing for our pride is to be or not to be. Being right gives us courage, gives us intelligence, places us above, elevates us, but only in our heads. If you have truly won an argument, what you have left in the other person’s head is resentment and humiliation.“, continued the one from Requena
“That’s why tonight’s proposal is that before discussing, ask yourself: Will it be useful? If yes, go ahead, without brakes; but if not, and most of the time it is not, Maybe we can make the personal effort to listen to the ideas we don’t agree with without jumping, holding on to the impulse. Maybe, instead of judging the person in front of us, we can try to understand them. It’s a moment and you will surely have a better day. As Nelson Mandela said, wars end when you stop demonizing the enemy.“, Pablo Motos stressed in conclusion.
