All of this is depressingly familiar. Please remember that this is not a problem of white people vs. black people, or Christians vs. Muslims. This is Homo sapiens being normal. In Japan, the oppressed group is Koreans. In Islamic countries, you might be oppressed for being born Shia or Sunni, depending on which country you're in. In one part of Africa, you are very much aware of whether you are Hutu or Tutsi. What we need is a working democracy and good education ... Oh, wait.
Yes, Keith, we should *all* be sounding that alarm. Thank you very much for your post. I’ve now shared it via Bluesky and Mastodon.

Excellent point, Michael. Thank you.
