The Donkey and the Tiger
The donkey said to the tiger:
The grass is blue.
The tiger replied:
No, the grass is green.

The tiger replied:

The argument escalated and they both decided, to take the matter to arbitration,
hence the lion, the king of the jungle.
The donkey started braying before he even reached the forest clearing,
where the lion sat on his throne:
Your Majesty, is it true that the grass is blue?

The lion replied:
Yes, the grass is blue.
The tiger disagrees with me, contradicts and annoys me, please punish him.
🌸
The king then said:
- The tiger will be punished with 5 years of silence.
- The grass is blue ...
🌸
The donkey was happy ... hurried and went on his way:
🌸
The tiger accepted his punishment, but first he asked the lion:
"Your Majesty, why did you punish me? The grass is green.
The lion answered:
Actually, the grass is green.
The tiger asked:
Then why are you punishing me?
The lion replied:
It has nothing to do with the question of whether the grass is blue or green.
The punishment is for being a brave and intelligent creature like you,
cannot waste his time arguing with a donkey,
who comes here and asks me that question.
Arguing with a fool and a fanatic is the worst waste of time,
who doesn't care about truth or reality,
only his faith and the triumph of his illusions.
Never waste time on arguments that make no sense.
There are people to whom we will present any amount of evidence,
they cannot understand, and others are blinded by ego,
hate and anger, and that's all they want,
to be right, even when they're wrong."
When ignorance howls, intelligence is silent.
Your peace and tranquility is worth more.
