My thoughts on Diversity, Equity and Inclusion

@catastrophecarnival Scientific principles can be applied across many different domains. For example, the precepts of natural selection apply to both ideas and language, it is where we get the term "meme" from. It was coined by the biologist Prof Richard Dawkins who noted that ideas go through natural selection, defining a meme as "a unit of cultural inheritance" similar to a gene.

It is why we get different forms of psychologists - educational, child, clinical etc, different forms of biologist - molecular, genetic etc. Science seeks to find patterns, and these patterns are based on an observable order, A phylogenetic model of understanding. Which makes sense, as we all observe the same, objective reality. Hawking's "Universal Theory" was based on this. And everything is going to have overlap with everything else. Just look at the field psychology, of which I work in. All the regulatory disorders have co-morbid traits and difficulties, it's why they are put into "clusters". Meaning they share similarities, despite being different. It's why we have the term "comparative" in science, "comparative psychology, "comparative biology" etc. It's why we have the terms "similes", "metaphors" (I'm also a certified languages teacher). When you get to level of education of any sort of substantial level, making these kind of comparisons is just taken for granted. My college and university courses require it, as does my work.

@Therealsteve too many words ...i don't care ...I don't need you to over explain to me ...I know what DEI is

@catastrophecarnival My response wasn't about what DEI is.

@Therealsteve ok
