The R term has been spread around our current culture, not always for good and lofty reasons.
It isn’t to right particular wrongs as much as it is virtue signaling.
And as with many idea-seeds planted in fertile yet shallow imaginations, the idea of fighting R rises as a lofty and important ideal.
It is also a convenient way to truncate conversations that would question the motives of some weak and mostly emotional arguments set out by a few who stand to benefit personally. We see them constantly on news opinion shows – the shows that push pharmaceuticals on their audiences having long lists of deadly and debilitating side effects.
I have two reasons for not stating the word outright.
The first is because the Internet has cyber-censoring algorithms that interfere with free and open speech.
The second reason is to demonstrate how unnecessary it is to spell it out because I’m sure you have already figured out what it is.
So how to end R in our society?
Stop talking about it. I don’t mean ignore it as a problem. There are R’ists.
I mean change the angle of conversation to virtue. Understand how important it is to love one another, not based on skin tone similarities, but on something deeper, like the color of blood being universally the same in appearance no matter the human circulatory system pumping it.
In fact, transfusions are not based on skin color but on other factors that are not visually determinable.
I would say we in the human family have a blood connection as well as a spiritual one. People attempting to separate us are on the wrong side of the argument.
Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things.
