Spoiler alert - a lack of knowledge doesn’t create bigots. Reactionary propaganda creates bigots.
The idea that bigots are bigots due to being “uneducated” is just another liberal myth designed to hide the origins of the bigotry that protects their precious status quo.
Ah yes, tell me more about how liberalism creates conservatism and follow it up with how authoritarianism creates personal freedom. Bonus points for sneaking in why modem day Russia and China are such great places for LGBT+ folk, or why Hillary and Kamala are responsible for all of Donald J. Trump’s crimes and how if we can just destroy the Democratic Party we will finally prevent a Republican presidency. While you’re at it, remind me how it was that Ukraine forced Russia to invade it.

I take it that, in the year of Our Lord 2025, the by-now blatantly obvious relationship between liberalism and fascism is still a complete mystery to you?
That’s not an explanation AT ALL, that’s just belittling me for not believing the same things as you, making out that in stupid. It’s not a great way to win converts to your cause.
I’m familiar with people on Lemmy arguing that somehow electing Kamala Harris brings about fascism, and yet, entirely as predicted (by anyone who has at least one foot in the real world), not electing Kamala Harris has Trump enacting the fascist agenda for America, as published well in advance by project 2025.
I find it quite staggering that you can calmly write this kind of crap here on the internet while our brothers and sisters in America are locked up for having the wrong ethnicity. By Kamala? No! By Trump!
So yeah, the challenge to explain how Kamala is responsible for the crimes of Trump was completely failed, and you didn’t even attempt any of the other ones.
Not what I am referring to with the title. The title is in reference to the fact that they use something they are uneducated about as their tool for hatred.
No no, I think communism would be far better than capitalism, and I don’t think I have anything to fear from a system that makes us equal and caters to our basic needs, but I have no idea how it would turn people kind and thoughtful instead of bigoted. You seem to think it will fix every wrong in the world. Do please explain why or how it changes the people rather than their circumstances.

Not all uneducated people are bigots. But all bigots are uneducated.

FTFY. Bigotry requires education - an education presided over by reactionary actors intent on protecting the status quo.
how do you think bigotry should be solved under socialism/communism (mostly)?
Not spending vast amounts of treasure and energy to create them in the first place seems like a logical first step to me.
Communism will make everyone kind and unbigoted?
Just say you prefer bigotry because it protects your privilege and be done with it.
No no, I think communism would be far better than capitalism, and I don’t think I have anything to fear from a system that makes us equal and caters to our basic needs, but I have no idea how it would turn people kind and thoughtful instead of bigoted.

Yeah yeah yeah, before capitalism there was no bigotry, we get it.
