It just goes to show that the colour of your skin or even your culture doesn’t prevent you from being a racist fucking moron.

I can’t tell you how many people think they cannot be racist simply because they’re not white before they tell me in the next breath how x race are the worst.

My theory is racism, prejudice is built into our brains neurological functions, especially lower level ones, and thus requires constant vigilance to prevent.

A million years ago humans who looked at a strippy bush and thought there was a tiger hiding in it and thus avoided it became prejudicial to strippy bushes irrespective of the evidence that the vast majority never had a tiger in them. But because of their cautiousness they survived and spread this on.

The same applied to strangers and other tribes. They looked at these other people, clocked their features and were instantly prejudicial. They avoided / murdered them based on this ever constant belief that it better to kill and be safe not to mention the powerful incentive that conditioned them further with being able to take their shit.

This created homogeneous populations based on tribal / national scale that have entrenched this prejudice, this belief that ethnicity and culture are the same, over the past 40,000 generations of human “evolution” (a great example of how evolution doesn’t always lead to improvements).

The last two hundred years of war, mass exoduses and diasporas has dissolved the tenuous lines of what we defined as ethnicities. What is asian, black, and caucasians when every year millions of humans mix their genes with people across the world.

Whats an innuit mixed with a person from a slavic and African background?

Yes we have linguistic/cultural backgrounds. Those are important but membership is no longer govern by your genes. Adopted kids from asia into the US midwest alone shows how silly this. There are kids born from people of Filipino heritage in Israel demanding to be able join the IDF (be the first kid on their block to get a confirmed kill).

So whenever i see these articles of people from various cultures i can understand on one level how they can throw in with the fascists. They don’t see themselves as Hispanics first but as MAGA because ultimately what the MAGA movement enables is this freedom to no longer hold back this inbuilt racist prejudice that lives deep inside our perception system.

To be able to hate and not hold yourself back, always having to check and correct yourself is liberating.

My father was a socialist, a bleeding heart liberal but get him behind the wheel of a car and the absolute hate for any asian female driver who came his way flowed like the dark side, like palpatine was sitting next to him encouraging the hate). But out of his car, in his work, it was the complete opposite.

Its like when he was driving that internal checksum was no longer operating as his higher level systems were busy on trucking right. Indeed when one highlighted his casual racism and hatred.

Its no surprise that most of these maga voters fall into to distinct buckets. Older people who are falling into the long decline of a neuro degenerative disease like senality, where they end up relying on low level functions (like an autopilot) whilst being at the mercy of peer group dynamics (which is how fascist mainstream media infects their brain) , especially hate filled ones, are so much more powerful) and younger people who have been kept in a information bubble, conditioned all their life to hate.
