How and Why Do People Have a Problem with Inclusivity?
Any problem with inclusivity comes from artificial lack, scarcity, and insufficiency.
It never ceases to amaze me how bent out of shape people get over inclusivity.
No matter what the topic — race, gender, color, religion — you will find somebody objecting to inclusivity.
Logically, and reasonably, this makes no sense at all. Why would you want to deny other people their rights, freedoms, and acts of basic human decency?
In asking this question lots and lots, I believe I have an answer. And it has nothing at all to do with inclusivity.
The problem is one of lack, scarcity, and insufficiency.
But not true, actual lack, scarcity, or insufficiency. The problem people have with inclusivity is a matter of an artificial belief in lack, scarcity, and insufficiency.
Where does that come from? Messages that if you let ‘person or group x’ have more, then you and yours will have less.
When it comes to inclusivity — this is an utter lie.
