I'm not saying *I* don't see the difference, I'm saying your average person
might not (and by and large I think it bears remembering that they outnumber
us). It took the general public quite some time to even accept a simple
navel ring as normative.
"This is a war universe. War all the time. That is its nature. There
may be other universes based on all sorts of other principles, but
ours seems to be based on war and games. All games are basically hostile.
Winners and losers.
We see them all around us: the winners and the losers. The losers can
oftentimes become winners, and the winners can very easily become losers.."
- William S. Burroughs
