2. After conducting several analyses, that were controlled for education and socioeconomic status, the Hodson and Busseri study results suggest that cognitive abilities play a critical, albeit underappreciated, role in prejudice. Consequently, the researchers recommend a heightened focus on cognitive ability in research on prejudice and a better integration of cognitive ability into prejudice models. In layman's terms: bigots are stupid!!!
1. There's an excellent study called "Bright Minds and Dark Attitudes: Lower Cognitive Ability Predicts Greater Prejudice Through Right-Wing Ideology and Low Intergroup Contact" by Gordon Hodson and Michael A. Busseri.
@PCHardwareTech Excellent rejoinder!!! Yes, when it comes to evils perpetrated by the world wide system of racism white supremacy, as one of the 3 laws of physics states: For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. Justice is mine sayeth the Lord!!!
Please keep up the good work, my friend. Our goal is peace, justice, and prosperity for all those who deserve it. Those who seek to deny such RIGHTS to others actually render themselves to be undeserving.
But comedians such as the late George Carlin and Bill Maher acknowledged that conscious whites like you in America are an extreme minority. Pundit Gore Vidal said that USA stands for the United States of Amnesia. And the late white author Studs Terkel said that USA stands for the United States of Alzheimers. American culture and propaganda generate obtuseness and stupidity among its citizenry.
More importantly, as Ron Paul speaks of blowback from Muslim and Arab nations due to the historic and ongoing antagonism that America and the West have perpetrated against them. It is incomprehensible to me that many in the American white community lives in something of a bubble (Bill Maher has a very funny skit on this issue) when it comes to consequential thinking and logical reasoning, ratiocinating.
Yet it seems that the white supremacist status quo seems more important to many whites than does their actual economic well being. Such thinking is embedded in the psyche of white America.
The book by the white male Thomas Frank called What's the Matter with Kansas? relates just how obtuse and knee jerk racism white supremacism has traditionally relegated a critical mass of whites in America to an obstuse state of obscurantism that leaves them easily manipulated by white leadership to vote against their own best interests.

Author James Baldwin stated that white Americans do not know their history. Yet there are those whites such as you who are intelligent and informed.
