Respecting one, doesn't mean treating the other like shit, such as racists.
People can admire others who are similar, but vastly treating those different
is a completely different thing.

To treat one with preference over another is to treat them like "shit". If you prefer your own, you are naturally gonna feel less of those who are different

People naturally segregate and have racial tension. GO to any college or high school lunch room and see the natural segregation taking place. There are a few racial exceptions but they tend to have either assimilated culturally or have a common interest such as football, band, or cars etc.

You use the term google warrior like I don't frequently prove my intelligence to be above yours

Wtf, just because people naturally do things doesn't make it a good thing.
People naturally want to beat the **** out of the other person when frustrated.

You're playing hard to get, there is a fine red line, and you know this.
Don't act like it doesn't exist.

Being intelligent is the ability to learn from your surroundings. You seem to think that learning from others is a negative thing. And I schooled you in the minimum wage debate among other things.

Just now you failed to counter my original assessment that homophily is a natural feeling. There was no media in past centuries, but we still stayed with our own. It's natural

Media: the main means of mass communication (especially television, radio, newspapers, and the Internet) regarded collectively.

How far back are we talking? When humans crawled the earth in caves in Africa? When they were just reaching parts of Asia? When they reached Europe? If you're going to take it back, take it all the way back my boy.

How did you school me on what minimum wage debate :lol. You must be confused my dearest.


Now take this ether. And read the entire paper.



I'll sum it up for you since I guarantee you'll misunderstand my use of that specific paper.

Who is to say it is natural if that is what they see everyday? We have entire cities segregated. That doesn't mean it is natural, it is a product of what we like to call slavery and systematic segregation.

Do I even have to mention the role the media has to play in segregation either? It's anything but natural.

think of every large scale fight by armies ever. They are fighting US vs them. Why do we do this if we are naturally homophilic?


If the world were as you say, then when fighting for land, the two sides who view themselves as different would break down and share the land because "there differences don't really matter". This has never happened because it's human nature.

Who are you trying to trick ?

Philia = Acceptance
Phobia = Repulsion

Homophilia = People who like gay people. If that makes sense for you.

Homo means "the same" lmfao

It's not about their differences. People fight over land and resources not because of a lack of natural homophily, but because of overwhelming greed or desperation. Underlying traits can override natural traits. Human beings are naturally social creatures, and yet there are human beings who are anti-social or limit their social interactions. It can be a natural trait and ignored in the favor of another; in your example, greed, anger and desperation.

The differences matter because certain people would like certain laws that restrict many, or invite
harsh treatment.
The differences are really impacting things, unlike skin colors.
INB4 you say the cultures that the skin colors signify, I'd rather you realize
Africans have been separated from their homeland loong ago, and that I don't
know a single African tradition I've ever practiced that came from Africa.

I think these culture differences you speak of is just the difference between
people with [more likely] poor education and are in poverty, against people with [more likely] better
education and income.

War isn't sparked by minor differences.. if that was the case, we'd always be in it
considering no country is 100% the same.
