About Us

aboutRELATVIVTY OnLine seeks to promote global citizenry through the respect, awareness, and recognition of individual perspective. Specificity over stereotypes, tolerance over dogmatism, and justice over bigotry- RELATIVITY is about the deconstruction of ethnocentrism, and its dangerous tendency to compartmentalize and diminish. There are many paths and not only one, and the values and beliefs of any single culture will never be universal.

RELATIVITY seeks to expose the bias nature of the media and the socially programmable disposition of cultures the world over. From the earliest ages, populations across the globe are conditioned into believing news coverage is both objective and factual; that television and film are agents of truth. The reality is our hard drives are bombarded with massive uploads of over-simplified, dogmatic, prejudiced information on a near daily basis. We are systematically programmed to believe what we believe and all too often, leave the act of discovery for others. The truth is found when it is sought, lies will die when they are exposed, and the beauty of freedom is often born from slavery.    

Today the world is smaller than it has been at any point in human history. An international Culture War has begun and victory will come only through hope, tolerance, and understanding. RELATIVITY OnLine will stand at the front lines and we hope that you will join us.

No one today is purely one thing. Labels like Indian, or woman,

or Muslim, or American are no more than starting points, which if are followed

into experience, even for one moment, are quickly left behind.

RELATIVELY Speaking

  • ANNOYING SAUDI A prominent Saudi human rights activist detained for more than a month is being investigated for allegedly “annoying others” with his online essays that criticise government officials and Saudi religious scholars. God Bless Saudi Arabia.
  • CHINA BANS SOLDIERS FROM BLOGGING OF ANY KIND A new regulation prohibits the People’s Liberation Army (PLA) from creating websites or blogs, citing confidentiality concerns. God Bless the Chinese Control Freaks and their ever-loving paranoia.
  • GRAB YOUR BONG While California confirmed its state’s marijuana legalization initiative would be on the November ballot months ago, the state has now assigned proposition numbers to this year’s slate of initiatives. Get used to hearing about Proposition 19.
  • THE WHITE MIDDLE CLASS DONT HAVE SEX A sexual malaise appears to have sunk over American White People. But to what extent do these complaints about sexual apathy reflect medical reality, and how much do they emanate from the anxious, overachieving, white upper middle class? Say What?
  • YOU'RE NOT JEWISH?! A Jerusalem court made legal history by jailing a delivery man from East Jerusalem. A Palestinian, the man was convicted of rape after having consensual sex with an Israeli woman who believed he was Jewish because he said his name was Daniel.

Does the fact that Barack Obama is black and the son of an African Muslim contribute to the radical nature of those who oppose his policies?
