Perhaps another way to look at it is that some humans are able to consider all other humans to be 'us' and not 'other'

@Teri_Kanefield

Thank you so much!

I would make one alteration:

Evolutionary biologists tell us that SOME humans are hardwired to distrust “others.”

Re: disappearances

I guess a lot of us here are old enough to remember the 1980s, when US backed militias in Central America disappeared huge numbers of people

Which led to huge numbers of Central American refugees coming to the US

Which contributed to the development of a US economy that depends on these refugees

And a political party that gets elected by saying that the refugees are bad people and they will get rid of them, but is careful never to actually do that, because they are needed workers

And I don't know if it's happening yet, but people keep talking about how the so-called deportation camps are going to turn into work camps
