3 Really Excellent Things (aka #3GoodThings @3GoodThings)
1. Meeting really awesome people with common interests.
2. Realizing the holiday season can be happy when alone, and it’s not very alone, actually.
3. Loving the connectivity of all the dots. (Ok that is a bit vague, but so what!).
Have a great day, all!

Sadly most #identitypolitics are highly #exclusive, separating people by their believes, their nationality or the colour of their respective skin. These #divisive strategies might close the ranks on one side, but they also are likely to deepen existing rifts in #society. These strategies are deeply dysfunctional in democracies that rely on #compromise and #commonality rather than confrontation and submission. #resist #strongertogether https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2019/12/31/identity-politics-stories-that-shaped/
