Insensitivity to one’s fellow man

Those who have made a habit of denying racial discrimination have adopted verbal reflexes and ticks that make them typical in the eyes of their targets. The great detours they take to avoid openly expressing what their heart says out loud, and the difficulty they have in depriving themselves of articulating it, are as many thoughts that emit signs, as the person does. like it or not. The attempt to conceal only amplifies the effect of effort. Racism is not subtle.
It is not trivial to choose a subject when discussing human relationships, which is not love. If the subject is not love, there is an intention to stigmatize in order to establish a balance of power or power. For those who are the recipients of these stigmas the road is typically recognizable as soon as the topic is chosen. It is as easy to recognize as for a woman where the conversation with her husband will lead from the moment he chooses to address certain subjects. Familiarity with these unloving language signs soaks the consciousness of those to whom it is addressed. When some voluntarily confuse freedom of expression with anti-Semitic revisionism, the signs do not escape the gaze, even under the cover of pseudo-academic discourse, or under the cover of third-worldism.

People who choose to speak of Jews or Blacks or any other minority without intending to speak of love are already announcing by their choice that all the rest will be lies, reclamation or aggression. Their lack of empathy makes their claim to objectivity a contortion of meaning, which will last as long as the listening granted to them.
When beings are dehumanized by the argument of number or where on the planet they were given birth, or according to the language they speak, or even for their simple skin color, we are not in the universe. of the subtle. These ways of categorizing people are the foundation of rudeness. The resulting pain is not a fallacy.
Insensitivity to one’s fellow man is never a virtue for the living.
And the definition of virtue in this framework is what allows an individual to surpass himself morally and overcome his egoism to access a real elevation of his being in this world of sharing.
