The Intolerance Index

I don't know if it is overpopulation, or global warming, or maybe we were all this ugly all along, and now we have media saturation to show it all, or maybe the global recession is not fully over and there is too much anxiety, but this intolerance index is up in many countries. Does globalization make people culturally dizzy? Situations keep escalating. In democracies it is rhetoric, in many countries there are outright civil wars. Protracted civil wars.

Diversity issues are out of the Pandora's box. And we need to rise up and appreciate the wealth that diversity is. The old white male dominion is over. We have to move towards a meritocracy. Cultural and gender diversity.
