I have a hard time distinguishing your 2.5 from my 2.
But thanks again for creating a forum where we can discuss these things without being called various kinds of bigots. If I post even watered-down repeats of what I've posted here on social media I'll at least be suspended; on Medium I will be banned (again). The repression of open discussion by what so many are (completely erroneously) calling "the left" is even more disheartening than the cretins who invaded the Capitol.

Hmm, maybe I misunderstood. You mentioned the belief for some corners that there *are* no differences and everything is socially constructed. I'm pointing to a belief that there not only *are* differences, but that they're fundamental. And that it's impossible to bridge the gap between them with empathy or our common humanity.
And you're welcome, though I should be thanking you. It's the input from you all that makes this place such a haven of honest, meaningful conversation. And guess what?! Nobody has been "traumatised" by encountering a difference of opinion or a fact that they didn't know before! Who'da thunk?!
