Juneteenth thoughts.
Intolerance is not only mean-spirited. It’s illogical.
Human beings sort wrong.
Meaning:
We label, classify and sort people and things as a vital survival strategy. It’s part of our nature. Classifying and sorting is part of what brought us here.
And yet.
To sort by race, religion, culture, creed, appearance or any other such thing has no use whatsoever. It’s all damn foolishness. No point, no moving forward, no use.
It *may* make sense to sort by ethics. By how does this person treat me. By have they chosen a passion in life that moves the culture forward. By are they totally dedicated to their chosen mission.
By are they kind, and thoughtful, and empathetic.
Most human beings sort wrong, and it’s idiotic, and that’s the damn trouble.
