How can people go around hating large groups of other people, merely for the color of their skin? It makes no sense.

Actually, we hate them for their content of character and actions and behaviors.

While discrimination, elitism, othering, xenophobia, group conflict, and prejudice about skin color have existed worldwide throughout history, modern racism is distinct due to the systematic development of "race" as a fixed, biological category used to establish permanent hierarchies. This 'racism' emerged primarily in the 16th and 17th centuries especially among white Europeans partially to justify the transatlantic slave trade, colonialism, and the economic exploitation of non-European peoples.

Today racial hatred is a potent motivator in politics, primarily used to mobilize voters, consolidate support, and push specific policy agendas by leveraging fear, anger, and existing prejudices. Politicians employ specific tactics to exploit and magnify racial divisions for electoral gain. Voters manipulated by racial hatred are morons. As many as 50% of Americans have less than a 100 IQ score.

Which part?

So you're upset because of my correction of your assumptions about communism in another thread? Your questions were disingenuous, weren't they? (It's not ChatGPT.)
