    I've been thinking lately – Society has gradually moved to be more inclusive. We rightly condemn discrimination against all manner of groups whose traits they have no control over (race, age, sexuality, disability, nationality etc)...

    ...by the same token, should't we also move away from celebrating those same traits? Seems strange to commend the results of arbitrary genetic or geographic lotteries. Rather, we should celebrate the achievements that people have actively worked towards.

    • Everything but economic inclusiveness,
      the biggest and the most important one. People who are stuck on the bottom of the social hierarchy      drgs
    • And not able to address it directly (taboo in America), are channeling their frustration into race equality, gender equality etcdrgs

    • We've moved from tolerating the traits people do have control over to condemning them. Not sure that's a net improvement.i_monk
