This statement also applies to myself, "The group I identify with far more strongly than any other is not a race or a religion or even a nation but humanity in all it's wondrous and diverse glory." Imagine if humanity towards our fellow humans was our guiding light? But wait, isn't that the underlying teaching of every religion, although not applied and often violated? Let your religion be love and kindness, can't remember who said this first but that's what we need. I look at govts around the world and I see very little love and kindness. So I guess that means it's up to us. As Birdy's song says, 'People help the people'. Thank you for giving space to Gigi Foster Rebekah, very much appreciated.🙏💜

My mind turns to Cassius Clay objecting to his conscription, saying that he thought it was silly that he, as a black man, should be forced by white men to travel halfway round the world to kill yellow people with whom he had no issue.
Twas a classic, methinks.
As a counter thought, there are conservatives who will argue that more progress can be achieved when a large group is chopped into smaller groups set into competition with each other.
