Prejudiced

[NoaRiver2020]

Do you think people are prejudiced today? Are there any examples? Are you prejudiced, if so about what?

[andy-hughes]

Yes, because sadly, it's human nature for people to fear other people who are different from them, to varying degrees, ranging from mild discomfort to outright hatred and harm.

I try not to be predjudiced but I know I am - hopefully against people who are more unreasonably predjudiced than I am!!

[emmie]

goes on in all quarters - i am to some degree and many people i know are too. can't be helped i am afraid.

Of course... it's human. Even if we don't want to... its fairly inbuilt. Race, sex, appearance, tattoos, piercings, political or religious leanings... you name it, people make assumptions, as we are all designed to see patterns.

// hopefully against people who are more unreasonably predjudiced than I am!!//

nay nay andie - it doesnt exist on this site of freedom.

and what about "it doesnt matter what you think, I will never change my mind !"
I can state without reserve that this never happened ! [in true AB style of just deny everything and carry on]

so like you
I am only prejudiced against the prejudiced !
bit Wildean really in these flat and sterile days

I refuse to allow myself to be prejudiced, unlike most people who are all idiots.

// I am prejudiced against people who don't do their own homework//

erm dont you have to find out if they have done their home work and then flam/bazooka them?
which is acting on info and not prejudice ?

[Peter Pedant]

oh very good Jim
you are working towards the idea of impossibility of true prejudice within the system in which we are working

( thx to alfred tarski - indefinability of truth in system T)

[david small]

Yes they are. If you don’t look like me, you ain’t right....

[bednobs]

as humans we have to pre-judge to survive

[JimF]

Two things I really hate are racial prejudice and Americans.
