   The shortsightedness of differentiating

   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!
