All the same

This blog has become mostly irrelevant and yet every time I think I will take long pauses between posts I don't. It's become more personal journal than the therapy and gender theory exploration that it used to be. Writing is habit.

Humanity is an expansive mosaic of diverse ideas, cultures, beliefs and behaviour that sometimes defy categorization. Against that reality is a constant push towards herding us into predictable camps by authorities who most benefit from uniformity. We learn slowly over time that much of societal structure isn't based on rationality or fairness but instead what the prevailing power structures can get away with.

Within the power structures are people looking to do the right thing despite the resistance.

We humans are governed more by emotion than anything else which is what drives conflict. Thus we see the same patterns everywhere because deep down we are all the same less than secure creatures.
