The modern “inclusivity” litmus test was Cov19 (non)”vaccine”. Comply or be banished. No “government” will own my free will. When imprisonment and the public racks arrive I will not feign surprise. Expect to be severely punished for simply being a man. Epictetus The Cripple knew it and so do I.

There comes a time in a man's life where we accept who we are. I call it the nuance of the spirit. While always aware of the circumstances and context in any situation, I often hear my mind saying after the encounter, well, that's my spirit, the nuance of my being. Every human leaves its own mark on other minds. The question is, are we making progress or regress on our causes.

I had my diploma shipped as well, I understood you. I got the impression you were liked by whomever complained about inclusivity. They wanted inclusion into whatever your spirit had left a mark on. Because you probably didn't care, they most likely felt left out. And... went on the offensive with words like inclusivity. But the core is what was the transaction switched for. I doubt you would've abandoned the group at its agreed duties. People want always more without recognizing lines in the sand.

Istitutions have catchy phrases for what they can't attain. Inclusivity, the real type, is earned. A check in the box inside a contract is met by 99.9% of us. We should not expect personal values to be accepted on a paid clock. This is the gray line. Those that use it, have issues of control. I liked your work as always.
