'A necessary first step toward finding solutions is to find a common idiom and a shared story - a narrative of humility in which humans acknowledge their mutual dependance not just in each other, but on' all our relatives'.

Oh, Supermoon in the night sky
Your sight was a wondrous surprise
Viewed from far and wide
Your beauty defied
A sight not to be missed by our eyes

"Extremely dangerous how "grooming" in the context of child sexual #abuse went from being a very specific pattern of isolation and trust-building with the aim of #abusing #someone to "telling #children anything that contradicts their #parents' ultra-conservative #worldview is #grooming" to "selling rainbow flags in a store is grooming" to "literally #anyone I don't like is a #groomer".

These days the #word seems to most often be used by #people who don't care about what it actually means and just want an easy "this person is irredeemably evil, kill them now" button."

What are "human rights"?

Are human rights based on respect for the only creatures on Earth made in the image and likeness of God?

Are human rights just animal rights? If so, from which objective source do animal rights come? Animals themselves do not even have any concept of rights.

Are there no rights at all, and this talk is just about making the /hoi polloi/ happy in their lot?

Do governments invent rights and then take them away as they please?

Should a country refuse to aid another country repel an invasion, on the basis that the invaded country is corrupt? What about when the aiding country is just as corrupt? Or when the invader is totalitarian?
