Oh, absolutely, me too. I love meeting new people. What I don't care for is tribalism. We shouldn't pretend however, that it's not just as present in minority communities (to which I myself belong) like elsewhere too. There are gay people who suddenly don't want to date Russians, for instance. That's sickening. The colours we are celebrating have been reduced to cheap product placement by the system that's supposedly protecting them. And when you go to dating apps. It's like a meat shop. Everyone is so promiscuous and gossipy. I'm sorry. I admire your enthusiasm. But even Morgan Freeman dismissed something like black history month as a bad idea. My country went through a genocide because unity descended into a blood-thirsty tribalism. So many beautiful colours. But in the end you're all alone. Because everyone feels so special. I'm sorry.
