White people's meritocracy hypocrisy
- ctdonath 13y agoNewsflash: when people are presented with a "us vs. them" scenario, they tend to operate in perceived self-interest favoring the "us" group. Frame the question in a manner excluding "we're all in this together", and the consequential responses tend to exclude "we're all in this together." Go figure. Interesting the article fails to address the corollary question of which groups tend to default to "we're all in this together", and which groups tend to default to "us vs. them" without explicit prompting.
