I wasn’t really thinking about it that way. Animals still commit acts of violence all the time, but nobody cares about it because it the law of nature and something we can’t change. That doesn’t make it right though because things shouldn’t be killing each other. I mean, people do the same thing to survive, but fortunately, we don’t live in a hunter-gatherer society anymore so we have the privilege of being multiple degrees of separation from the killing unless you are a farmer.
Dude, shit has been killing shit since the DAWN OF LIFE! I just had a white blood cell kill three microbes! It absolutely is the law of nature, we call it natural selection! The FUCK are you even onnnn bro this shit is genuinely the most unintelligent take ive ever heard… THEYRE ANIMALS. BORN AND EVOLVED TO KILL OR BE KILLED. How tf are you gonna apply though shalt not kill to animals? Tf you expect them to do? Purchase farmland?
You think that I’m trying to argue a solution, which I’m not. I’m just saying that the laws of nature involve a lot of suffering and things that are not right and we can’t control that. I don’t know if you are religious, but Christians believe that the current laws of nature are a result of sin taking over the world because before sin, all animals were provided abundance in the Garden of Eden.
If you hyper focus on stereotypes, it reinforces your mental idea that certain races behave a certain way. Also, categorizing groups like “whites” and “blacks” creates categories like “my people” and “others”. Creating categories based on race allows people to view different races as unequal, resulting in more racism.
Isn't that more of an argument against stereotypes rather than racial categories? I would agree that in a perfect world neither would need to exist (being "colorblind"). But how could you bring up racial prejudice without making it an us vs them scenario when that's what it's born out of?
