>Hateful bigot
One of the two of these is a conscious choice you have made in your life, one is not, and is instead something you are born and have no control over. Any guesses as to which is which and why those are different?
- komali2 7y agoA bigot is raised into bigotry, though. Sometime's it's as much choice as one's religion: not that much. I despite bigotry. It is irrational, hateful, stupid. At the same time, I think it's important to recognize the aspects of it that are a part of all of our psychologies, namely our cognitive biases. That might help us better develop strategies for defeating bigotry.
