    That is also my general understanding about hatred and neophobia/xenophobia in general. It’s the lack of understanding and fear or the unknown that fuels it.

      Pretty much all bigotry, is fueled by fear- fear of the other.

      And I’m only saying “pretty much” because it’s not like I’m an expert or anything

        It’s only evolutionary, to be afraid of the other. It’s what’s kept us alive for millennia. Thousands of millennia. Our society is evolving faster than our brains, unfortunately. We need to educate better.
