Harboring a hateful grudge can be quite useful. It keeps the emotions stirred such that when an opportunity presents itself to act, in a manner that may render benefit, compensation or satisfaction for justice; one does so with immediacy, and fervor. It’s an evolutionary advantage.That’s really strange. So when you see the father of a raped, and murdered daughter staring at her killer in a court room... You see him as “detestable”? I’m curious as to why?
I wouldn’t look at them as detestable. However harboring a hateful grudge doesn’t serve one’s best interests, regardless of circumstances. What I was saying is bigots are often looked at as detestable, when the reality is most of them do more damage to themselves than they do to anyone else.
I don’t believe hating a particular race or creed serves anyone’s best interest.
If one removes the presupposition of “hatred”, is it really too difficult to see the advantages of preferential treatment amongst those who fit ones own in group preferences?
I mean believing that certain people are inferior tends to manifest itself in hate and frustration. Surely there’s a correlation, is there not?
Everybody's equal, because I say so, without any kind of scientific evidence.
Because it makes me feel superior, over those inferior people who believe in inequality of the races.
