- scotty79 2y agoYeah. That would be great if we could stop doing that. Sadly human brain doesn't seem to work that way.
- anonym29 2y agoDemographic discrimination may be instinctive, but we are neither wild animals nor pre-programmed automatons incapable of using rationality and reason to modify our behavior to treat others with more kindness than our instincts would guide us to. I can't tell you how to live your life, but life is better for all us when we avoid demographic-level collective blame, which leads to demographic-level persecution, something I'd hope nobody here wants.
