Can just be outside influences can be from experiences.
I guess brainwashing? Only because you aren't born a racist, racism is something that is taught and that you see through media, stereotypes and all of that...
Things like that form during a person's youth and most likely in the home or at school.
Brainwashed we have all had negative experience with various people why would only a certain type have hatred held against them
Parents and media. Media always try to represent some races as they are advanced while others are backwards this is a brainwashing because its half the truth.
Both, my mom was born and raised in the Deep South in the 30’s. Every other word out of her mouth was “ nigger” I was also exposed to actual racism through her direct family.
Well, with my ex-girlfriend it was brainwashing by her Mother
I would say both. I must admit because of an old job I started despising a certain community. It was a mix of rudeness and obnoxious behaviour...
Growing up racism wasn't a topic but I had bad experiences. Stereotypes are true more often than I'd like them to be.
Unfortunately, Yes.
Brainwashing, mostly. Though a single negative experience is usually enough for a person to paint an entire group with a broad brush. It's easier to look at it as "those people" instead of "that person." Simple minds ever have simple views.
It can start by how your parents react to ethnicities. Then something unfortunate may have happened to re-enforce that upbringing.
B
I'm surrounded with white people and racism doesn't exist for me.
first off both of your answers are "experience" so you asked the question "which is true a, or a" so you asked no question at all
racism is a biological trait of all humans; not a learned behavior
I'd guess both potentially but upbringing and environment are likely to be most dominant.
It's ignorance that leads to fear and hate mostly but the things you listed can also play a role.
A lot of young people are taught to hate white people in the leftist schools (and boys).
They meet people in a particular race and find that many are just crap assholes.
I think it can be a little of both, but probably more experience. I didn't hate Asians until I visited Asia and saw how much they hate White people
I heard Asian girls will be all over white guys there LOL
@CherryStripes Not in East Asia. To be fair, it's mostly the old farts that want respect but don't give it.
Then which Asian country?
Stuff like this.
That’ll do it !
A person becomes a racist through transgressions of infiority shortly after denying the truth they've learned about the presumtion of knowledge pertaining about God.
