Harv,
Your discussion is at a high level of abstraction...do you dare discuss its applications in open forum?
I am saying each point of view, plus freedom, creates various true realities.
But this is where license is murky. Various pressure groups and secret societies _rush to judgement_ about their own rights and then Take Their Sweet Time "carrying out the sentence" on the other folks.
For example, I find that:
among Communists, Nazis, Counterculture Radicals, Various Fundamentalists, Masons, Media Frenzies, some Catholics, and Racists of all colors,
EACH group finds other groups guilty or "not worthy" and then they decide among themselves that certain persons IN OUR CONSTITITUIONAL SYSTEM have fewer rights than might seem to be plain in the letter of the law.
So, we have a large number of persons practicing
organized crime on a few select groups. Who more often suffers is folks who would not be so illogical and unfair. Russia's current economic problems might partly follow Joe Stalin's destruction of much of Russia's high IQ gene pool through paranoid purges. Stalin, of course, came from a medievalist region where they had already partially accomplished that over the centuries of orthodoxy.
The tendency toward being "average" is a force of nature that sometimes works to the detriment of humanity. You might think it will all be fine in the long run. But see...in the long run there have developed far more creatures like houseflies than like You or Me or Marie Curie.
In the end, the less intelligent will also perish because they reduced their own culture's mental capacity. If it continues to spread, what proceeds from that might be the ruin of our species' future.
