MY BELIEFS

Demonizing a group of "others" based on ignorance or prejudice is often used to maintain the power of certain political structures not through the force of their ideas, but through fear.
Action without forethought or analysis leads to tragedy.
Characterizing intellectuals and scientists as ivory tower elitists or conspirators results in a society which doesn't value learning and mistrusts those who do. It leaves us unable to rationally address the challenges with which we are faced.
Different societal norms and cultural practices are not necessarily inferior just because they are different. Accepting this does not mean allowing injustice masked as tradition to go unchallenged
