I believe there is a group of people in the United States who do not understand the logic of statements like, "Black lives matter". They are mostly just sheltered people who've never had a good reason to look past the end of their own noses. But I believe that group is small and I believe its time is running out. At some point in time, that group of people needs to figure it out. And that time is approaching rapidly. Once we get there, anyone who argues about the validity of statements like "Black lives matter" will be seen as actively bigoted. That's because the logic isn't difficult. Some people simply don't want to hear it. And anyone who chooses to be in that group is a bigot. This will be a very good place for our culture to get to. We need to move past these contrarians. Constantly interacting with, explaining to, and tolerating these people is holding back the pace of progress tremendously.
It's the same with global warming and a whole host of other issues. The logic is clear. Choose to work with the rest of us to find a solution, or be left behind.
It's really just this simple -- you got it.

They are blinded by their own insecurities or hate, perhaps both in many cases. Which comes first, not sure.

Thank you Ryan. I love getting comments.
DeleteI agree with what you said. Insecurities and hate are both emotional reactions. If people could learn to take care of their emotions, we wouldn't have all this misery.
Thank you for reading.
