Of course. Although difference can also be attractive, as in viva la difference. Racism therefore has to have causes other than difference and our abi...
Usually. But Irish people look exactly like English ones. German Jews look pretty much like Germans. The meaning attached to race can contain non-phen...
If racism prevention is the goal, people could be encouraged to be aware of how they feel about differences. Give space to feeling uncomfortable. Not ...
I'm afraid so. Isaac Asimov said that the Hebrews invented religious intolerance. Massively anti-Semitic and he was descended from Russian Jews. It's ...
Probably everything we are including culture emerges from biology. In turn, culture acts as a filter on our potential, amplifying this, suppressing th...
You said this before and I ignored it: that they deluged Trump, but were completely silent about the Uygurs. It brings into view how meaningless the a...
Killed by nerve gas or held in a Chinese re-education camp. Hmm. That's a toughy. Since they're willing to execute Falun Gongs for their organs, I don...
Makes sense. In the US, the economy has continued to expand and prosper, but wages stagnated. Which do you think has the biggest impact on prosperity ...
Cool. But you could understand why comparing the US to countries that are the approximate sizes of US states is problematic. Let's compare Massachuset...
If you mean there's greater wealth disparity in the US, I wouldn't be surprised. If you're saying there is less social mobility, I'd be interested in ...

There's principle-based racism, which is institutional, and then unique flares of racism that are responses to stress. If the US and the UK share prin...
So you're saying this isn't a product of the times, it's a product of a long-standing attitude that we would expect to see shaping events as we roll f...
What I gather is that: 1. SSU is innundated by information about the royal family and can't get away from it. He's possibly in some Finnish basement s...
A challenge to that would be Native Americans who were reported to lack racism altogether, and in fact it was reported that a tribe might choose to wa...
He was riffing on Kant, not Descartes. Somebody suggested that though there appears to be a multitude of electrons, there's really only one. Schopenha...
It doesn't make sense unless you're planning to colonize the area. Just let their protests echo away in silence too (unless you're an American politic...
Exactly. If everybody already knows you're in imperial overstretch and all you have left is nuclear weapons, it's best if everybody thinks you're fuck...
I dont think Descartes suggested that it does, did he? I dont really see what work substance dualism does beyond saying that mind is irreducible. Irre...
The important thing is that the US, like you, is a drunken maniac who will bomb anything for any reason. As long as everybody remembers that, we're go...
I don't agree. In stripping away everything we can doubt, he was denying the Church a place at the foundations of our thinking, and understood in the ...
