Would you say that it is possible to present a vision of success that leads to the betterment of humanity, which isn't imposing or biased in some way?No, I don't think it's possible to do such a thing, there will always be dissent. Law is imposition, betterment is bias.
Quote:Are we capable of coming up with such a solution? If so, then what is it? If not, then what is the best solution or course of action that humanity can take, which is the least imposing? My actions in this thread indicate that I do not have the answer to this question. As a result, if you're willing, I'd be interested in hearing your ideas and wisdom on this matter, Rhythm. Thank you for your candor and directness.-Whatever- we decide to do, we may as well be honest with ourselves about what it is. There's no sense in whitewashing our own positions or actions. To say, for example, that we can't impose our way of thinking or that we attempt to combat bias while we -do- enforce anti-discrimination laws for the betterment of society. We distance things like that from the terms imposition or bias because imposition and bias are dirty words, things to be avoided, while anti-discrimination laws are positively valued (by us, at any rate, obvs not by racists, lol).
