To be honest, I don't understand it either, but I've watched as people have engaged others with these ideas and gotten slammed as insensitive. Even thoughtful people who should be open to this seem to need assurance that their interests will come first. While sitting for hours on the tarmac waiting for our plane to get the go ahead to leave, I engaged with the woman next to me. She is a second generation Haitian-American: a well educated, well paid pharmaceutical rep (by her own description), but every time I tried to raise the issue of economic growth, she raised the issue of racial disparity -- even though she was not a victim herself.
The tribalism has taken over. I don't have an answer to that.
Intelligence is not knowledge and knowledge is not wisdom, but they all play well together.
