Apparently, my post was confusing. I'll go back and add a quote to exactly what it was you said that I was responding to.

You: "I don't know why we make this distinction."

Me: "We make distinctions because we live in a multicultural world. Without nuance, we're left with nothing but vast simplistic generalizations, bigotries, pseudoscience and antiintelectualknownothingism."

I apologize for the confusion.

Happy New Year!
