Can we just see that the xenophobic and anti-xenophobic worldviews both have blind spots and no-go zones? https://t.co/zxSE32iQNt Quoted tweet from @laurahelmuth: For journalists covering this — get the science right, make it clear that Redfield is not an authority on the relevant science, and be aware of the xenophobia that underlies it, part of a damaging history of “blame China” that doesn’t get examined enough scientificamerican.com/article/prosec…

@Tetrazphere1 I agree all around, John. I should have said “the best of the three major worldviews on Race.” Because those are the qualities that we want to keep. Not the “teeth and different types of venom.”

I don’t think woke is a right-wing long game. It’s evolution doing its thing. Two ideologies fighting it out, each with big truths that want to be integrated. https://t.co/fQFea2HXGT Quoted tweet from @RebeccaAVelo: Someone once told me wokeism is a right-wing conspiracy She said right wingers are pushing leftists to adopt nonsensical ideology that will be SO rejected people will be clamoring for conservatism permanently It’s basically ring-wingers playing the long game Is this possible?

@JoshuaALeonard @StrangelEdweird Thank you for making the distinction, Josh. Integral is a terrible, confusing term but I just can’t seem to quit it!

The three major worldviews on Race: Traditional – Positive identity with “my people” Modern – Colorblind and merit-based Postmodern – Privilege the unprivileged Each has allergies to the others. Integral consciousness seeks to include all of them in a bigger, wiser worldview.

Yes! This whole thread (so far) is an affirmation of the fact that evolution (biological, cultural, personal) is powered by struggle. Accepting that makes us grow, resisting it makes us suffer. https://t.co/IwNDTCfNdt Quoted tweet from @HeidiPriebe1: I feel like this might sound melodramatic but something I’m genuinely processing at this point in my life is the realization that getting hurt (and *really* feeling that hurt) isn’t just a crappy side effect of living a full life, it’s a necessary component of it.

All politics aside, just note how observations like this, in the many millions, are helping humanity to see itself ever more clearly. https://t.co/yxVdxAjblc Quoted tweet from @StrangelEdweird: It’s a bizarre position to find yourself in, where people hate you for refusing to hate the people they hate.
