It divides people into groups pitted against one another, into categories of oppressed vs. oppressor. What’s worse, your group defines you.

Supposedly, Albert Einstein gave this definition for insanity – doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results. Whether Einstein actually said this or someone else conceived it, it is a profound definition.
