I think its helpful to think of us as operating on 3 levels. As part of the human race, as part of various cultural groups, as individuals. https://twitter.com/Gil_Ant/status/878962478553726976 …

I still feel that it's most important as a society to support individuality & foster unionality & that group identity shouldn't matter.
-
But if it does matter in reality - if discrimination exists - then attention on this is needed but shldn't require divisive collectivism.
-
Why shouldn't it? Because the majority can always be persuaded by minorities when it comes to the factuality of oppression?
-
Huh? I'm not even sure how this relates?
-
It relates to the question how discrimination is discovered, seen as worth fixing, and to the question whose attention is required to fix it
-
In what way does it relate?
-
How would requiring a group to isolate, resist individuality or shared experience with outgroups help minorities to convince majorities?
-
Doesn't this result in minorities within minorities being vilified - see liberal, LGBT & ex-Muslims - & hinder communication between groups?
