Geez, woman, when you deconstruct, you DECONSTRUCT! Moving honking big rocks around must make your brain go into overdrive. My head was hurting a little by the end, but you do make some really valid points. It's a fascinating dissection of the issue, and I love your art examples. It is hard to be completely open to all the possibilities and overcome any bias when our innate bias blinds us to our bias. But isn't that what critical thinking skills are for, to overcome that sort of thing as best as we are able? Makes you wonder what they are teaching in schools these days.
Then again, some people will be willfully blind, no matter what.
I love it when you do this sort of thing. Maybe you should go move some more big rocks.
