And what makes you think the rich are wicked cause they didn’t give to you the poor, would your opinion of the rich still stand if you walked in their shoes.

@wildcats4627 ah, clarification, wealth hoarders. Does that work for you?

@wildcats4627 check out how much taxes wealth hoarders have paid in the past 5 decades and how they use government subsidies to prop up their businesses. Or ask yourself how do they make a billion dollars withOUT exploiting workers (check out trends of median employee to CEO salary over time), or just ask your AI how much did billionaires make during the first 2 years of the pandemic when 99% of population lost income, savings, health, lives. But you’re right, the poor who ask for handouts are the problem.

Wicked is a different story than wizard of Oz. And its about prejudice, perception, and manipulation.

Thank you❤.I totally get your point regarding “other”. My late partner was a world renowned designer for the theatre, I was accepted everywhere in his world as his life companion. I can see that being a gifted artist in the sphere or film and theatre, something of a hothouse environment for gay men and lesbians for many years now, a breakthrough is possible. This has set an example for other walks of life but there is still a lot of work to do, so that those people who don’t possess elite skill levels or who work in atypical gender situations, also have a chance to be accepted fully.
Global communications are really helping social norms to change. Such examples as women’s soccer, rugby and cricket, which have risen as ethnically diverse in a natural way, the popularity of Paralympic sports, can all help us to broaden our acceptance of inclusion for all.
None of these things take away the isolation caused by prejudice but we can all play a part in disapproving hate speech of all kinds and encouraging candidates who support the exclusion of prejudice.
