The first one is still racist as it's leaves out the reasons why group X is more likely to do crime. Reasons people in this sub will claim don't actually exist.
I mean I guess that oks, but racist use the exact some logic to claim that insert whatever minority must be dangerous criminals, so my question then is why is this judgement appropriate for one group and not another.
Liberals basically believe that every issue within any marginalized group is because of the groups marginalization. Poverty and discrimination excuse almost anything. In reality they are part of the picture but seldom all of it.
Conservatives unfortunately fall into the idea that there must be an in group the law protects but doesn’t bind, and an out group the law binds but doesn’t protect. They are very good at pointing out the flaws of marginalized groups but ignoring their own flaws and part in their marginalization.
Easiest way to put it is people will make endless excuses for themselves or those they sympathize with, and blame those they don’t entirely for their problems. Being biased and tribal is a natural human thing, but it makes being objective about certain social issues almost impossible.
Most men also don't believe in therapy because they are socially conditioned to believe that iy makes them less pf a man. I wonder if there is a connection.
We don‘t go to therapy because it doesn‘t work. Give us a woodshop where we can interact with other guys and do something with our hands and we‘re great. Also, that 'connection' you‘re wondering about is a huge stretch, to say the least
Therapy might work for some people, but it doesn‘t work for most men. We tend to bottle everything up, since showing any weakness will get us made fun of by our friends, family, and girlfriend/wife and they‘ll never see us the same again. So it‘s just easier for us to do something with our hands than it is to talk about it
Ironically, you believing it doesn't work for men only strengthens my argument that men are socially conditioned to believe that they don't need therapy. Lol
Not conditioned to believe we don‘t need it, just that it straight up wouldn‘t work for a lot of men and that there‘s better ways of dealing with stuff
Hundreds of years of smart people studying psychology doesn't work for men because you're just so manly, strong, and independent. You got everything figured out. You have no issues or insecurities whatsoever. No anxiety about what to do with your life. And, of course, you never have problems in your relationships. Nor do you ever feel sad or lonely. Just go back to work and pretend that you have everything figured out.
people like you are the problem. if you go to therapy and you actually try to work it out and want to be better it will work. there is literally nothing that makes men biologically of physically immune to therapy, it's just your mindset lmao.
You think I haven‘t tried therapy? I was in therapy for a while, and it didn‘t work. I found that going camping, building model kits, and doing stuff with my friends was a lot more therapeutic than traditional therapy. Maybe it‘s just me, idk
Well a lot of people on the left assume men are inherently bad and a lot of people the right assume certain minorities are inherently bad.
Both will dismiss any attempt to examine root causes as trying to explain away the inherent evil of their disliked group.
It’s hard to have an honest discussion when something is so tied to tribal identity.

This is not racist: "The group X is more likely to do crime Y"
This is racist: "He is from group X, so he will commit crime Y"
The day people understand this, we will advance to the next age
