179. The core fallacy is because something or someone is different it ........
is less or not worthy of consideration which is a view contrary to the rise of most civilizations. The weakness’ displayed by partisan politicians and nationalistic movements demonstrate this rule as it has danced around the globe through the centuries always in an attempt to secure goods, services and space from others and eliminate the people and groups that are different than them.

These movements, that more often than not, willing and even to the point of inherently knowing that avoiding the other groups is necessary in keeping conflict from happening will at some point still come in contact with them. These movements that having to deal with the needs of the community that they encompass are at the beckon of its need to expand makes even violent conflict inevitable at some point.

Greed or natural ascension cannot make others the same as you or me. We are different and when we can understand that and go about embracing each others differences as an asset rather than a liability then we might have a chance to live in peace

As to muddle in the road; I might not debate if Atomic Bombs are racist to him and the views he holds, rather I would debate if the people who used them were knowingly or unknowingly racist in their views towards other people and have decided that a quick fix is the best thing to do, expediency if you will, because another weakness, what some would call impatience.
