People who give in to racism and prejudice may simply be dumb

Hating just seems to take so much negative energy to me. Some people seem to be happier when they are mad but I don't understand it. You hear stories about people for example who hold resentment towards a father who abandond them, which is understandable, but then how much that anger hurts them.

So now my comparisons are off? Well, if they are then any comparison of people to one another is suspect, and ultimately one human being cannot be compared to another.

Hate to break the news to you, pisskop, but right now most of us are comparing you to the village idiot and you're losing.

But cheer up; you've here just what, about 6 or 7 months? You'll learn over time how to do better. And keep taking some classes! hopefully something will sink in!

Of course racism is ignorance. And those who most often spout it are frustrated by their own lives and wish to blame someone else.

Not news.

There's no gentle way to put it: People who give in to racism and prejudice may simply be dumb, according to a new study that is bound to stir public controversy.


The research finds that children with low intelligence are more likely to hold prejudiced attitudes as adults. These findings point to a vicious cycle, according to lead researcher Gordon Hodson, a psychologist at Brock University in Ontario. Low-intelligence adults tend to gravitate toward socially conservative ideologies, the study found. Those ideologies, in turn, stress hierarchy and resistance to change, attitudes that can contribute to prejudice, Hodson wrote in an email to LiveScience.

"The research finds that children with low intelligence are more likely to hold prejudiced attitudes as adults."~Meaning the parents that teach the kids to be racist are better at hiding it......Basics.

So true. Now if someone's smart people think they're snobby elitists.

The left does the same highlighting. If the left wanted equality they would stop highlighting the races, even giving favorable treatment to them. Such actions only serve to increase the tensions.

2 way street, fella.

If everybody got fair treatment equally, there would be no need for what you call "favorable" treatment.

It is a two-way street. Thing GWB getting a legacy admission into Yale and Harvard, was that fair?
