Which Side You Belong To?

Creating a debate out of nowhere has always been my thing. Provoking otherwise placid speakers and bringing them to an audible level has always been a fun thing for me. However, those were the days of my life when the biggest worry would be to manage petrol expense of my petrol thirstly and much pamperd Vespa scooter. As hour hand of the watch passed the baton to the month of calendar and these months circled the track of year many a times, I realized, I have somehow lost that innate desire to create stirr among public emotions.
Few days ago, I got one such opportunity on which I jumped in such a ugly and uncivilized way that even few of our politicians would have thought of some decency. However, the initial euphoria of retrying my old devil tricks was shortlived. It's not that I didn't succeed in creating a debate but in relation to my previous debates, I left this one with much disappointed look on my face and a heart full of shame.
The major difference that I forgot to notice was the subject of the discussion. Very few people actually know that being emotionally involved with one side of the debate is the biggest crime a speaker can commit. If you want to enjoy a debate, always be reasonable and by being passionate, you will only harm your chances of fairing better in the battlefield. So, the topic was "Slumdog Millionaire" and as usual, I started criticizing the movie. Till this point, I was neither a jingoist or a chauvinst who just stand on the roof top and give air to his troubled ideas. Somewhere, between the debate I realized that I got passionate and started to blabber a few things related to topic.
I said to myself, oh come on, whom I am kidding, the movie is a glaring reality. Behind all the scenes of growing prosperity, citizens of my country still stand in line for a water tanker. For each penny, I spend on luxury, a indignant faces stares at me.
I have never belonged to any side in any debate (Giving arguments in favor of one side is a different thing) but this time, I think I would love to switch sides and do something meaningful than just arguing.
