"Insisting on clumping such disparate groups together, and referring to them with the same term, means emphasizing their similarities while also disregarding their differences. When those differences are substantial and relevant, and have widely varying implications for the everyday lives of these distinct groups, glossing over this can be a disservice to everyone – both the many groups who are now seen as fused into a single mass, and the people on the outside who are trying to understand who and what we are."—Zinnia Jones

Those that are in power are just going to the same groups and playing the same game, telling them, "You seem to be cool. I might be willing to support you but ONLY if you keep out those other riff-raff."

#Assimilationism is #kyriarchy. In the long-run, it won't even help you to throw other out-groups under the bus. Gratitude is not in the nature of those in power.
