This Could Be In Many Sections

There was a cartoon on another thread and, my own mind being a dustbin that flies off on strange tangents, I thought of the cartoon below. I did see some sort of connection to the discussion on that thread, but thought it best to open another thread.






In many ways, the cartoon speaks of the beauty of difference, of diversity. Of how our own sense of "self", in seeking to justify it and defend it, often makes us blind to the unique characteristics and virtues of others.

Obviously, no "question" here, but any observation welcome.

Our causing a lack of diversity is what is killing our eco system and is the cause of our present headlong rush towards our own extinction.

Naturalists are telling us that we have become what is analogous to a Banana Republic and we all know that just one virus can destroy a single crop/Banana Republic human race.

That is what's happening with the honey bee. I read that something like 80-90% of the bees in use by beekeepers are from the same genetic line. And they are susceptible to a certain mite and/or fungus that is suspect behind the Colony Collapse Syndrome.

Beekeepers don't just make honey. There is a whole industry of farmers hiring beekeepers to bring in their hives to pollinate the crops. And the keepers go from farm to farm.

They will be pleased to hear that we are killing those off by the millions with the plastics we are dumping into the sea.

You are getting your fair share of that micro plastic in your fish, not to mention the iodine.

Ahhhh, the unfair selection process gag.

I understand where the thread is meant to go but I'm going to veer off on a tangent because unfair selection processes come in many forms. Women and black people have had to stand for such gross injustices for a verrrrrrrrry long time. They are nothing new to us.
