Is it true that true harmony and unity and true equality can only be achieved when all voices are heard?

[jshm2]

Nope. That's just bullshit said to sounds "deep".

There actually is no such thing as "true harmony" and "unity" like "peace" can only ever be temporary, as people and circumstances always change over time.

Equality is an ideal. There is no "true" in it, as people cannot ever be totally equal - not even twins.

As for "all voices", if everyone spoke, there would be nothing but noise and nothing would be done.

Progress is about hearing the right voices and adhering to the right advice.

This was tried before
all voices had to be heard
and then a lot of "what he said" and " what she said" started to repeat more often than not
turned into "what they said"
and then into "they represent me"
and that's how political parties came to life, democracy and stuff alike
so...

Or when all voices are silenced.

You will never have "true harmony" and "true equality" at the same time, and certainly not if "all voices are heard," because there will ALWAYS be dissent.

There is no such thing as utopia. Maybe some day when technology removes all of our problems. That's the only way. Anything else is a silly fantasy in my opinion.

should we hear from all of the pedophiles, satanists, anarchists, communists, convicted criminals, murderers?

[OddBeMe]

Yes, as in something we should strive for. Perfection will never be had, tho.

[NitroExpress]

Seems obvious.

[msc545]

I think so, yes.
