“Equality….I am not convinced that is the ideal state of being. It seems to me that the state of humanity is far too diverse and variegated to impose equality upon it. Perhaps it is all just matter of semantics….. To me Allowance would make more sense. This set up of rampant individualism and ruthless conformity pretty much guarantees that the wheels are going to fall off on a regular basis. Having set ourselves up as communities, factions, groups, ruthlessly categorizing and compartmentalizing ourselves and others…. We have become a world very much divided. And so I offer you one solitary black tear that cuts a path through this mask”
