Thank you for calling out the projection that is at the root of creating the “other”, in a sad, feeble attempt to ignore the abject emptiness displayed in the acts of hatred. Instead of the harmonious “I am that you are” recognition of oneness, we are seeing the vile antithesis through avoidance of the collective self in violence.

I acknowledge your courage in writing and posting this.
