“we’ve hated each other for stupider reasons for hundreds of years”

Are you saying hating people based on their skin colour is a better reason than hating them for trying to take away your land?

Well, it's at least more concrete than hating them for worshiping a slightly different imaginary sky being.

Au contraire, I would say hating someone for their beliefs is a much better reason. It is something they have control over and can change and then there's no reason to hate them anymore. I would assume people on Lemmy would understand this as it not just applies to religion but also to politics. Or would you say punching black people is better than punching Nazis?

Haha! No, ah, no I would not say that.

I guess I was thinking about Jimmie Walker who said,

"I just got back from a tour of Ireland. It was interesting. It just goes to show that even without blacks, Jews, or Mexicans, people will improvise!"
