A poster that I created for advertising a local conference on that theme. Best viewed at full size. MY SOCIAL COMMENTS It is possible to live with a diversified neighborhood, but only if we agree on common values and by mutual respect, with the objective of building up TOGETHER a grassroot organic and unified community. We will have to debate and to negotiate a lot; this is how to do it. Will that succeed? Maybe, if there is no external destructive influence on that endeavor! If diversity comes by itself, unity requires a collective consultative effort from every member; it should not be imposed by any authority. Even God does not want to impose it; His will is to let us create such grassroot-level unity. It is a huge challenge, but He knows that we are able to do it if we are attentive to His counseling. This is not happening now. Imposed diversity is NOT our strength, but the strength of those who want to create division among us. Such an imposed diversified neighborhood could have an appearance of harmony, but it will be by constant fear, like in a mafia society. It will stay like that, as long as those of authority give special privileges and power to some groups at the expense of others (by creating division). In America, for example, there were some peaceful neighborhoods of Blacks, Whites and Latinos who shared common values, like freedom of speech, meritocracy, equality of opportunity (not of the outcome), where individuals were judged by the content of their character, not by gender, nor by faith, nor by the color of their skin. But the elites hate that. By subversion, infiltration and corruption, they constantly destroy any attempt of grassroot unity. In a world, where all actions of every individual are monitored, evaluated and sentensed by a global AI (Artificial Intelligence), under the control of authoritarian regimes, I cannot see any solution of realizing a real organic unity in diversity ...anywhere in the world. But who knows, we can still dream like Martin Luther King. Reason alone cannot solve this impasse; it requires the desire from everybody to create such unity. In my opinion, only God can create that desire ... if He wants that, but maybe, He is judging us that way. If we forget Him; He only let us believe that there is no god, and this is when ... all hell broke loose; back to the laws of the jungle until we all become mad! Is-n-it, what is happening, now? After reaching the bottom of despair, we might start to believe that nothing good can be done without His help, and to pay attention to his generous advice. This is when the quote "He is the Help in Peril" takes all of its signification. MY ORWELLIAN LINK OF TODAY Funny, Creepy and Terrifying video, from a Canadian Independent Journalist China's war on their own: Facial and emotional recognition tracks and shames citizens by Ezra Levant On last night's episode of The Ezra Levant Show, we looked into some examples of Chinese surveillance — you may have seen the video showing trains in China threaten to lower your social credit score, but have you seen the facial tracking software that proposes to track emotions, too?
