Religious zealots, drug cartels, Marxist/Leninist ideologues, 'genuine' revolutionaries...we're all one species and we better find a way of getting along together soon, or there'll be no planet left worth living on.

I understand your sentiment, but I don't suppose there is any hope of that is there? No, with all the intolerance and dogmatic hate speech that is spewed from a few religious zealots, there is very little hope of that.
ReplyDeleteThere is an element of religious zealotry in the way capital is accelerating privatisation and the transfer of wealth upwards, increasing the gap between rich and poor, surrendering the efforts of the last 70 years to create more humane and tolerant, socially responsible models, the way it is dismantling support structures and creating the disenfranchised under-classes that can be appealed-to by fundamentalists everywhere.
