Re; intellect impaired
Yes, and the vehicle perpetuating it is because we have learned in our
socialization process to believe that some people have more value than others
as "human beings." We learn to judge other people and marginalize people who
are different. A person marginalized in our society is denied equal access to
the social and economic benefits society has to offer. Thus you become part
of the poor and homeless. The threat of our being marginalized is the great
motivater, (at least if you believe the perceived power and authority in our
society), that drives people to leave a warm bed to travel to work when it is
-20 degrees outside. What society doesn't recognize is this threat is an act
of violence against ourselves. An act of violence created and perpetuated
through the influence of the collective consciousness whose only power over
us is that which we create every time we judge another human being. It
doesn't even matter if your judgment is a good one. As long as we judge
others the cycle of violence in society will continue. Remember; All violence
is related, violence breeds violence and violence tends to escalate.
