Prejudice: Which of all stereotypes is the least truthful?

Answer 1

The stereotype was never designed to represent the truth, but to be a shorthand system of prejudice. Since people use stereotypes to make quick decisions based in emotions, stereotypes are the cultural equivalent to animal instincts, which doesn't say much for our species' intellectual evolution.

The stereotype is precisely the opposite of the truth. It's prejudice to think that a group of people or art or music or movies or language is done evolving and mutating. The truth is things necessarily change. Stereotypes help most people understand their world, "settle down" into traditions, and they hold those beliefs tight when they are challenged. But those "truths" are merely representative of the moments when you've decided on a stereotype or a system of stereotypes, that they fit the life you've chosen. This is not Truth.

Thanks for a fun question.

Answer 2

Many stereotypes are more or less true. Other stereotypes are, as you might expect, lies.

The stereotypes which are approximately true (in enough cases to be useful) are usually those which were formed as the result of decades or centuries of experience.

The stereotypes which are lies are those which were formed and massively popularized in recent years. The rise of the mass media, especially television, made possible comparatively rapid shifts in public opinion, and whoever owns the mass media pretty much owns the politics of the country or countries served by those media. In the United States and in Europe, most of the media masters are Jews.

The "Nazis" aren't lying to you. The Jews really do have the control that they've been telling you. From their small percentage of the population flows the preponderance of the political power, chiefly due to their ownership of the organs of the mass media and those of high finance.

And it is from those media sources that the recent and false stereotypes have lately been coming. The older stereotypes, the ones which were well established in the year 1900, are approximately true; that is, true enough to be useful in most cases.

Answer 3

The idea that their is one "true"god or religion is the least truthful of stereotypes.
The real question is hidden in this parody. And it is, "Did man descend from early species (Australopithecus), or did God create man from dust and take his rib to form woman. The truth is probably somewhere inbetween.
It is logically a fallacy to argue that there is "one"
"true" god. The proposition presupposes an assumption,
which has and is not substantiated by evidence.
"Faith", as we know it is also untenable. Since it
too is based on several confabulated fallacies. The
same is accurate with respect to agnosticism and
atheism. It's not the case to say, that we do not
know one way or another, but it is also not the case
that we do not know that we do not know. The
ambiguity leaves us in a state of evidence, or the
absence thereof, because we cannot explain the
implacability of the universe, which leads us to
Existentialism Kierkegaard, Freddy Nietzsche(AKA,
hermit, whore monger and syphilitic near-do well),
Sartre, Camus and other agnostics, who wanted to
rationalize their hatred for the Stoics in way form or
fashion they could. Thus, they ruminated around and
hatched one of the most dangerous philosophies on
earth: the idea that man is essentially nothing pitted
against the implacability of the universe. If this is
so, then it also nothing to kill somebody, which as we
all know is nonsense. Rather than admit, that their
philosophy breaks down, they would rather proselytize
verisimilitude's of its vagary upon the world as being
the end all and be all of belief systems. The
evidence of the reality check on it is quite another matter. Religion: if it's organized, then pick your poison.

Answer 4

All of them! Stereotypes are personal opinions of others. Only the person you are stereotyping knows the truth about themselves and any prejudices.

Answer 5

I heard once that Polish people always wear socks with sandals. I've never met a Pole so I wouldn't know, but it sounds like a bit of an exaggerative generalization.

Answer 6

Arabs are terrorists. Jews own the media. Blacks are on welfare. Most stereotypes are not truthful, so how can you choose just one?

Answer 7

Answer 8

All black men have long, large or big dicks. I am a black female. I personally know this is not true. About 12 years ago I dated a guy who had, to me, the world's smallest penis. I had to stop dating him because it ruined our sex life. It was so small it couldn't even stay inside of me long enough for me to get a reaction.
How sad!!!!!!!!!

Answer 9

Those that say that only dog-lovers are true animal-lovers, that people are either inferior to or comparable to animals (in a negative way), - there are too many to narrow it down to just one.
