|    The shortsightedness of differentiating     |

      From: oldernow@dev.null              Isn't it amazing how few understand that differentiating       themselves from others - especially employing/embracing       a label to emphasize that differentiation - invites       the perception of the others that those differentiating       themselves are *distancing* themselves from them - which is       half a hoppy skip from the perception that the distancing       is due to those differentiating themselves considering       themselves superior to the others.              Is that really such rocket science?              Apparently.              The sad hilarity is even greater when the distancers       talk of wanting unity/oneness whilst insisting they are       different!              --       oldernow       xyz001 at nym.hush.com              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
