- patrec 8y agoPeople rightly fear being labelled as X-phobic for various values of X because it can easily ruin their careers or lives. This fear likely constitutes a more effective mechanism for turning large numbers of people away from genocidal hatred of various forms of "otherness" than rewarding positive behavior or making a reasoned case because it scales better. So the claim that fear of otherness can't be counteracted by other fears seems implausible to me.
