As a comment - among other things, it tells you a [rather trivial] fact that seeing each other as parts of the same entity promotes understanding and sober consideration of facts. And this is why the "progressive" efforts of separating us into groups are extremely harmful. Here is just one illustration from my own personal experience. After attending a certain "diversity and inclusion" event at my organization (this event deserves more attention, perhaps I'll address it in later posts), we were sent an assessment form by one of the senior administrator of the university. Here is one of the questions, verbatum:
"After attending this listening circle, I am more aware that every interaction with another person is intercultural; this may be due to differences between me and the other person that are invisible or perhaps there are things at play for each of us that we are unaware of ourselves."
The above concept was a huge topic of the actual event. We are encouraged to seek out differences in each other, and then, of course, we are blamed for discriminating against others because we see them as not being members of our reference group.
