Re: Monthly chat december
@Defender, by "sterriotype" I simply meant that you were taking a large chunk of the world and making a catagorical statement about how people behaved. The so called "third world" is made up of a huge number of different countries and cultures from India to Africa, and generalizing in such a way about such a large proportion of the world's population seems not to be helpful.
I'm a little confused how on the one hand you say "people get pissed about sterriotypes because they have some truth to them" and then go on to state that "people don't like their own culture being cryticized" sinse these two statements seem a little contradictory as a person who believes sterriotypes of races and cultures other than their own will be less likely to cryticize their own culture not more. I also confess I find your "all sterriotypes have some truth to them" a little worrying, indeed if people stopped thinking i n such broad catagorizations and using prejudice, ie, pre judging others based on sets of external and often arbitrary groupings we'd probably be a better species and indeed individuals would get far more freedom over their lives than we actually do.
