What is your take of this ‘pop culture’ story: Focused on the top rated song covered by a country music megastar or the difficult conversations about diversity that we are not having? I would not say it is a deliberate alienation of the country music audience, but it seems to me a good example of privilege imposing.
There was always an audience that knew Elvis covered Big Mama Thornton’s “Hound Dog”. It doesn’t make someone a better person for having learned it later or a worst person to have never learned it.

I have always had a fear of starving, alone and unsheltered. The reality of this possibility has focused my attention toward those thing I might do to avoid it. BitCoin is one of those things.
I have become comfortable believing there are more things unknowable than falsifiable. Falsifying some things does not give me access to the knowable, but it does direct my actions.

The difference between one’s understanding and one’s belief is that one’s understanding comes from one’s own voice, while one’s belief comes from the voices of others. Having that understanding helps me with the voices.
I do not apologize for oppression that lead to my own privilege - to that by which I am benefited by no means of my own efforts. I do not feel guilt for it, I am grateful for it. It is not assured that the oppression others embrace will yield similar benefits.
Imposing diversity creates a different result than fostering diversity.
Which is anti-scientific?
1) Accepting the uncertainty among the projections of the leading scientific experts; or
2) Accepting that science provides certainty.
