| FragilE^ said: Racism = hatred. Bias and prejudice =/= hatred. How many times do I have to tell you this? Is it really that hard to understand? Infants display the same behaviour as adults. You can't possibly have even opened those articles :/ http://phys.org/news/2015-07-born-racist-bias-expert.html This one will answer all your questions. And again, since you're having so much trouble, let me quote myself: "We are born with a system in our brains (this includes you, get down from your pedistal) that leads us to classify and judge people and things, to make it easier for us to understand the world, which in turn will lead to biases and prejudice." It is not the outside world that "teaches" us to differentiate, judge and classify. We are designed to do so. That does not mean that we can't fight it, but it also doesn't change the facts.
You're displaying very hypocritical behaviour when you paint yourself as some kind of holy person despite being dismissive and judgemental of others and their behavior. Yeah, that ruffled my feathers a bit. My point still stands, and I'm backed by the world of science. |
That quote just backed everything I said to you
"We are born with a system in our brains that leads us to classify and judge people and things, to make it easier for us to understand the world, which in turn will lead to biases and prejudice."
This flat out says exactly the same thing I've been telling you and that is people are born with an ability to learn and that's it, it even tells you biases and prejudices are developed well done you proved me right, the system in your brain observes what's around you in order to classify things so in other words the world around us moulds us. We're born to learn and from what we learn we develop from it, that's what it basically.
I think it's time you yourself come off your high horse as you're enraged for no reason, the whole topic is about racism and you pushed the notion that it's part of us well guess what infants won't put sheets over their heads when they see another infant with different skin colour or think they're inferior and that shoots down. The notion you pushed and the argument you're now trying to cling to are two different concepts that you tried to bring together, don't care if you're having sleepless nights over the fact that I don't see things your way and if you want to get into a slanging match seeing as you're gearing towards personal attacks the past few posts I'll gladly provide that for you as well if you want to go down that route.
