Human fiction
The people with blue eyes were allowed to apply for that job. Those with green eyes and brown eyes were allowed to apply for their own jobs respectively. Half (mixed) eyes were looked down upon in regards to social status and hierarchy. There were many subdivisions and layers within their society. Only the people with green eyes could wear every shoe type, whereas everyone else was limited in their shoe choices. Human history and culture was broken up into eye colour, and your history and culture was dependent on your eye colour, and you could not claim other human history or culture as your own, unless you had the right eye colour. Wearing contacts to change eye colour was extremely offensive, but only when the people with blue eyes did it.
Gender, sexual orientation, or having more pigment in your skin meant nothing to these humans whose culture had been shaped by a human building narrative to explain and group the world through eye colour. And so it became so. Humans passed on narrative to each other, getting lost in each other’s stories. In another world something else abstract would be chosen as the dividing tribal line in the animal homo sapien, and those that did not see or agree with the narrative would be like the people with blue eyes wearing open toe footwear.
It was all fiction. Human fiction.

Hello @riskdebonair, and yet again another great perspective on the human segregation. It is what we believe works that we do, if something favors you when you are in power, then every other person is forced to live by your decisions. How the heck could blue eyes people have so much control? But yes that's the reality even now. We classify ourselves based on mundane things and over time, generations will do the same which am quite sure will be on more mundane things. How can this be corrected?, Mr Neo Kanye bowie, the only self proclaimed genius on the blockchain @riskdebonair. Is there hope for mankind?
Michael knows.
Interesting concept. When I went to primary school, we had a "learn about apartheid"-day. They divided the children into two groups based on their eye colour. The smallest group, the brown-eyed one (I'm from Norway, most people have blue eyes), was the privileged one, and we could do whatever we wanted all day, while the others had to study. They all hated us that day :D Quite similar to your story ;)
Love to read your writing......

I believe that fiction is about everything human and we are made out of dust, and if you scorn getting yourself dusty, then you shouldn't try to write fiction.
Man great perspective! I am going to go out and get those glow in the dark contacts to avoid getting a job!
