I think this is an excellent dream, but it will take a long time to achieve. On the path towards the goal, people become uncomfortable because they learn that they have commited -isms in the past. I get distressed when I remember sexist, racist, and ablists things I've done in the past, and end of working through those feelings and educating myself. For example, as someone who has to work extra hard to develop social skills, I've had to learn no to violates all the rules in the Recurse Center's manual, <https://www.recurse.com/manual#sec-environment>, and it's a continual challenge. I do the "well actually" and "backseat driving" a lot. -- [email protected] -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
