This, 12/10, is Human Rights Day. Great idea to stand for treating others fairly and equally with dignity and respect. It really has not much of a track record of gaining traction, and only I know why. Unless we individual-live and maverize, we do not really mean it when we talk about treating others as equals, with dignity and respect.
Group-living is plagued with all kinds of issues of who is in and who is out, who is favored, and who is disfavored, who has the power and money and who has little of either.
If each person is accepted and urged to individual-live and maverize, then we are respecting him as a unique person, with a special future customized by him just for himself, and that liberty and empowerment carry with it a host of human rights acknowledged and met.
Without Mavellonialist interpretation, warm, fuzzy idealism about attaining a world of human rights will never come about, as sought after and elusive as gaining world peace.
