How do I want to bigot?

You know how I love dancing with “ranges of human meaning-making”.
Usually in terms of a number line with two endpoints that are actually undoable.

Today’s range is about labeling.
Which something that human beings have to do with reality.

At one end of the spectrum is “total bigot”.

The object has only one meaning-making, one way of being, one response from you, one course of action.
It is a straight-up, one way only, stimulus response.

At the other end is “direct experience without labels”.
The object has no labels.
If you want to dive into the deepest part of this particular pool, there is no thing out there.
You and it and everything is one thing.

Anyhow, that’s the cartoon version.

I don’t think that either extreme is doable.
And that’s just me and my meaning-making.

So, what to do with this?

“How do I look at how I relate to something through this lens?”
Well, in a nutshell, one extreme is that you are interacting with only your historically-defined labels pasted over that object.
The other extreme is that you are interacting with something that is a total mystery, you have no idea of what it is.

Operationally, what you are going to be dancing with is the thickness, the opacity/transparency of your labels.
You can’t get out of the labeling.

It’s a human thing.
If you want to play with this, it’s way easy to do it with human beings.
From there, it’s way easy to do it with human beings that you have an attraction/repulsion to.
Sexual or otherwise.

You know the expression, “My eyes are up here”?
Thick label.

Laughing at how deep an exploration this can be.
Laughing at how, "But I don't want to be a bigot. It's wrong."

High value, either positive or negative, seems to be “thick label” dependent.

It’s not whether to be a bigot or not.
It’s about how thick a bigot about what you want to be.
