“anti-white leftists “
Seriously? And it doesn’t take much, eh? I verily disagree mr racist.
“I was thinking about people from different cultures mixing enough to become one type of people with really no culture at all.”
So you were thinking of some hypothetical thing that does not happen in nature then? Because waht is happening is the given melting pot culture becomes a sum of all its parts combined, stronger for it.
“Or celebrating multiple cultures in their heritage.”
Something that very much already happens. Myself, I celebrate both parts of the culture I came from and most of the one that adopted me.
“I’m just saying that it is, for the most part, a part of our nature.”
And I am saying that you are well overestimating it.
“You act like that just because we are highly intelligent that means racism and xenophobia are inexcusable.”
Bingo! Because they are.
“but it may be part of the nature of a lot of people.”
Again changes nothing.
“The best thing for those kinds of people, then, would be to try and suppress those behaviors in some way. But it’s likely that we won’t be able to breed such behaviors out of our species, at least not for a long time.”
Depends on what you mean by “breed out”, we can certainly try and hope to weed them out by as many means, as we have.
“Reason being, of course, that racists and xenophobes tend to reproduce a lot, too. If they reproduce more than non-racists/non-xenophobes do then that makes it even more unlikely that we can breed racism and xenophobia out of our species any time soon. “
Thaat really does not work like that.
“Also, are you sure that lots of people agree that racism and xenophobia stem from territoriality?”
Yes, I believe it to be a pretty common position these days. Part of it anyways, there are of course other multiple factors, reality is a complex thing.
“And by looking at the territorial behaviors of other apes, we may be able to figure that out. “
To a degree only. We are talking different species here in the end, not ours. You apply these things too happily and yo get idiots desperately trying to fit the captive wolves hierarchy into something utterly unrelated.
