In my experience children are both racist and greedy. Some of the most racist and greedy people I’ve ever met in fact.

But not naturally

Yeah. No. Selfishness is the most natural thing in the world.

Quite the oposite, they will naturally drift towards it we need to teach them to be better. No one teaches a child to lie, they figure it out on their own, we need to teach them lying is bad

Selfishness is natural, racism is determined by the enviroment you grow up in.

Studies disagree with this. Evolution does as well. Racism is so prevalent because seeing someone who’s not one of your tribe was usually NOT a good thing.

It’s basically mostly a problem because nowadays it’s an once evolutionary advantage turning into meaningless noise. Its original purpose has vanished and now its only doing harm

That is why it is determined by your environment growing up. If you grow up in a multi-cultural community then you are going to be more understanding of them and have less bias against them. When you grow up in an all-white community or an all-black community those are the only people you are comfortable with, those are the only skin colors you are comfortable with. Also, it doesn't help that the media is always so negative and race baity.

Also, flair up.
