View Full Version : be honest about your own prejudices

no matter how open-minded and egalitarian someone is, there will always be that one group of people that, for whatever reason, they just can't stand. this is your safe space to get it off your chest, admit that you are human, and start to rectify the part of you that needs improving.
i myself am fervently anti-christian, or more generally, anti-abrahamic. the religions of christianity, judaism, and islam are, in my opinion, nothing but degrading forces that teach human beings to live their lives prostrated, and that they must take up arms, either literally or figuratively, against anyone who doesn't likewise bow before their idea of "god." throughout history they have shown their true nature as oppressors and subjugators in every corner of the earth, and through the sword, the gun and the germ, they have made entire populations slaves unto their ethereal leader. i would never again date or marry a christian (made that mistake already) and prefer not to keep company with such people unless they are capable of keeping their traps shut about it. you may think i'm justified, or you may think i'm horrible but at least i'm honest, both with myself and with my peers.

Wait, this isn't going to be a thread where people get restricted for being honest is it?
Because I honestly don't want to have the unnecessary prejudices that I do have. Lets be honest though. Whether we like it our not, we all have prejudices, at least on a subconscious level, whether we like it or not. It's unfortunate, but certainly a definite reality.

I think the first step toward understanding and recovering from your own prejudices if you have them is to understand that they are something that is conditioned. You have the responsibility of working through them with yourself but you have to understand that the various stripes of bigoted and chauvinistic sentiment are very much a structural part of capitalist society and represent various unique relationships of oppression.

If you want me to be honest I'll say it- while I watch anime and even read some manga in small doses, I get a little annoyed by some of the more... passionate (I guess) fans.
That's about it. I don't really have any other things that tick me off.

I can't stand people who are anti-gay.
That's my "prejudice," if you can call it that. I don't care how nice of a person you are, if I find out you're anti-gay, you're dead to me.
I make an exception for the few family members I have who are bigoted because I can't just quit talking to them. I just try to ignore their atrocious views.

its a pretty broad statement i guess, especially considering i have middle-class comrades who are very good people.

I dislike weeboos, I second that.
I also have a prejudice where I think some people on this forum are like dorky crazy people with USSR/revolution/whatever political fetish.
Older Americans sometimes make me uncomfortable, so I also second what FF#0000 said.
I dislike cliched, trite people...although that's hard to define specifically.
I mistrust people with manic depression/bi-polar disorders, due to my negative experience with a few of them.
I dislike people who are those intellectual-sort that are smug or unnecessarily talk in an "academic" manner and boast about their knowledge and so on.
I distrust cops, but that's normal in this site right?
I dislike people who think they're all alt, special, or something but are rather cliquish, cliche, "doing/following things just to impress people." (I have problems describing it, but I've met people like this and I guess if I pointed them out and you knew them you'll understand what I'm referring to; also they tend to be "hipsters")
I kinda dislike all those "social justice" people on tumblr, for some reason. IDK, I don't think they're sincere and maybe a few other things perhaps.
hmm...idk what else. I have general misanthropy and cynicism that I recognize so I try (keyword being try) not to think much about my dislikes regarding people.

I have a hard time trusting communists who go to private schools and have trust funds. I always suspect a lot of them are really liberals who think Marxism or anarchism are edgy. They sit there in their little bubbles talking about proletarian revolution while having their maids bring them their fair trade tea or whatever rich kids drink around their gardens.

Well that explains it. Aging isn't so bad you know. It's hard losing family and friends and seeing people deteriorate before your eyes and it's also sometimes annoying being around young whipper snappers. I can't stand my nephew.

I honestly am afraid that I'm everything I hate, because I am a white, cis, male, who most people think is straight. I spend a lot of time trying to figure out if I am racist or sexist or transphobic or some shit, because people (who haven't even heard me speak) in my local "radical" scene often claim I am all of this shit, and the only reason I can see is because I'm a white cis male who they believe is straight. These tend to also be people I like and respect, so it's hard for me to not wonder if I'm some awful sexist. racist etc... pig. I think that the racism and sexism are the ones that scare me the most because I get accused of it the most, even by people who don't know me.
Overall, I guess I'm just afraid that I'm possibly prejudiced. I don't really know if I am. But it scares the shut out of me.

You're wrong. I'm now a dorky uni kid.
I think most of my prejudices are at least somewhat justified. One could argue that I am harsher towards reformists and charity workers than I should be. I also can't stand couples. I can tolerate members of couples individually, but when they come toward and start making out right in front of me, it pisses me off.
People who act overly feminine (whether they are male or female) get on my nerves too. I think I'm justified in feeling urked by their behaviour, because by being focusing on their appearance and acting overly emotional they are bowing down to the status quo and presenting themselves as easy victims for oppression. Acting feminine is like walking around with an 'abuse me' sign hanging around your neck. I'm not saying these people deserve to be abused. I just think they should taught the consequences of acting in that way.

I realise that not all religious or spiritual people are homophobic, misogynistic, transphobic, racist, anti-scientific, ethnic chauvinist etc., however I tend to be suspicious of such individuals, and feel uncomfortable in their presence, particularly if they display religious symbols in an ostentatious manner. Now my inner cynic would like to note that in most cases my suspicions are true, but even so, it's an ugly habit, and one I am trying to get rid of. But that's easier said than done.
I also passionately hate anyone that is homophobic, misogynistic, etc. etc., and those wealthy people that demean the poor, people that demean certain (usually menial) occupations etc. But I do not consider that to be prejudice, or wrong.

I tend to be prejudiced against leftists. Like, I'm sure if most people here meet another leftist they get all excited 'go team!' about it, but legit if I meet somebody and they're a leftist my initial thought is usually 'man, I bet you're a proper intolerable little prick, I bet you think you're so fucking special, you've probably got loads of shitty opinions that you think are cool and oooooh sooooo progressive, you're really gonna piss me off...' But maybe that's because I usually only know they're a leftist if they make a big song and dance about it, and I can't be dealing with that kind of stuff because if tends to come across as bragging to me, I dunno...
As a wise man once (almost) said: I like your left, but your leftists make me want to hack my eyes out with a butterknife :)
PS. a couple of the posts in this thread have only added to my utter contempt for these people. 'I'm prejudiced against racists waaaaah look how awesome I am even my prejudices are cool!'

I'm pretty wary of (politically) trusting people from the SWP or AWL tbh because those groups (in my experience) have a tendency to co-opt a struggle for their own ends and suck the life out of it.
I probably make a lot of snap judgements based on silly stuff, like music or clothes, or just the stuff people talk about. I don't like people who go "whoa this conversation's getting a bit deep" every time the conversation gets interesting and tend to judge them as shallow or apathetic.
I also tend to expect men who look/act a certain way to have certain attitudes towards women, which is probably unfair sometimes but it is quite often true.

I hate the upper middle class especially the trust fund baby types. I find that most of them are pretentious arseholes who think they are hot shit and look down upon the working class. Even though most of them live off their parents they constantly moan about people collecting benefits from the government. I have never been able to stand these types and i have absolutely nothing in common with them.
I also have a intense dislike of all religions. In order to follow religion one must shut out critical thinking as it does not go with religion very well.
And i don't like hipsters and those granola hippies either.

Really yuppies. It's part resentment for just a sort of general obliviousness or disconnect from everyday life. I stereotype petty bourgeois in this way, it's just the rampant moralism and idealism I associate with them. One example is working in Berkeley doing customer service, sometimes these wide eyed yuppies will come up and say things like: "wow, this place is great, it must be so FUN to work here" and I wanna respond, "wow, it's so fun having no healthcare, debts, and living paycheck to paycheck with no hope for any sort of future... Ok here's you boutique overpriced crap that I wouldn't buy even if I could afford it".
If you've seen the portlandia skit about the dog tied to a post, I had virtually that exact thing happen at a job about 8 years ago. This yuppie rushes into the store freaking out that someone had tied their dog to a post and left it there. He was almost crying and pleading with me to take care of the dog inside the store because it was hot outside. He was acting this way about the dog when there were three homeless people sitting no more than 10 feet away looking miserable in the same shadeless sun.

Oh, I also dislike dog-people in the San Francisco because they use dogs to show off their leisure time and wealth in a city without backyards. I also hate that in the Bay Area every stupid yuppie and hipster with a purse sized dog claims these useless little things are medical, "helper-dogs". None of the people who make these claims ever look like they need any help with anything and the dogs never look like they are capable of helping in any way besides being used as a living fashion accessory.
If there are medical licenses being given out, then it's the biggest scam since medical marijuana started to be prescribed for "stress" and "mysterious back pain" by doctors who advertise among personal adds in free newspapers.
It's just so that stupid yuppies can go shopping with their dogs and feel entitled to walk into shops with them. They same yuppies who would sneer from across the street and wave their arms to dissipate my cigarette smoke they imagined might float 25 feet over to them, now put their dogs on counters where people eat and snap photos and show off their dog to people. Fuckers.

All because they say so doesn't mean it's true. Among the radical scene there's too many crazies who believe everyone should feel guilty of being something or believe "all sex is rape" and all sorts of bizarre stuff.

If they accuse you of something, try to ask them to explain what you did and why they didn't think it was right. If they just accuse you of sexism/racism and don't explain why, then they can't necessarily expect you to work on it.

And through self-cultivation, one can learn to overcome those prejudices by studying whatever social group they're prejudice against, contrasting it with their socio-political worldview and applying it to their self.

I'm pretty tolerant now but I used to hate the Japanese and Koreans. Mostly because my ex was Chinese and I felt guilty about disappointing my parents so I guess that guilt just got redirected into bigotry. Generally I'd refer to them either as "Japs" or "savages" depending on my mood and fantasize about them getting bombed. but one of my k-pop friends got me into Korean music so I'm good now.
I still have a thing against southern people. I live in New Jeresy and around my area there is a bit of "northern nationalism" if you call it that. Most of us around here think that the South is hell on earth and we often organize mourning parties for people who have to move there because we tend to see the southerners as sub-human barbarians.

Which is the point of the thread. Self criticism is just about that, criticize one's self; if it was "lets get into a leftist circle jerk and brag about how much smarter we are than those reactionaries" then It'd be called something more appropriate.

Oh lord fuck i hate that ****. The funniest shit ever was when he was almost crying on a video of his when Qaddafi got killed :laugh: . As if he was some great Socialist or something. Not to mention MRN thinks North Korea is some Socialist paradise which just shows you how much he actually knows about that country. Granted he has probably never even been outside of his moms basement. He gives Socialists of all kinds a bad name. Seriously i feel like flying up to Montreal and punching him right in that stupid face of his and filming it so i can put it on youtube.
I don't think I'll ever forgive Canada for Nickelback.
I don't blame you. I really really hate nickleback with a passion. They sound like they just get up and take a shit on stage and call it music. They are yet another reason why i hate Brooks, Alberta. Fucking shithole of a corporation owned town that produced one of the worst bands in Canadian history.

The other side of hipsterdom are the people who dress almost exactly the same but serve those elietes their organic food.

Also, Californian's saying "hella" (I'm looking at you #FF0000).Ha-ha. I actually didn't know that was a provincial Northern Californian thing until I moved to Los Angeles for a while. Worse than "hella" which I use proudly, we used to say "heck-a" which is even more idiotic.
And the way that Los Angeles accent drag on the latter parts of some words, "likeeee I was soooo surpriseeeed to seeee you thereee, I was alll liikkeeee totally"-Nobody likes that, people either don't notice because they do it themselves or they hate it. Worse than that is some rich people in LA (I don't mean super-rich, just well-off) drop the ends of their words, dropping the end of the word but also dropping tonally so it sounds like they are falling asleep after each word: "Luk, I wos.... sooo... supriseah to. See. Yeuah. Thurrr. I wahs... luk... tot-ahllllhee...."
In the bay area there's a suburban annoying thing of people saying statements as through they were questions. "Can you drop me off at BART? I like totally need to get some groceries?"
For some balance, I dislike that people in the UK never pronounce Spanish correctly whereas they sometimes will pronounce French with the long-vowels.

well yeah obviously not the big phones anymore but I only know yuppie used to refer to guys in suits doing marketing types jobs. maybe it's dependent on where you live but here (london) what you talk about would only be called hipsters and I've never really heard the two mixed up. I guess on west coast america you get that whole spillover from san francisco well-to-do-hippie culture so probably a bit different.

Okay fair enough. Not everyone comes from places where the C word has no sexist connotations attached to it so i shall be more careful when it comes to using colorful language on the forum in the future. All the same in my defense the C word has absolutely nothing to do with sexism here and i have never even heard anyone use it in that context. It has pretty much a neutral meaning here as it can be used in either a positive or negative way. Such as "That Mikey is a good enough C so I'm after telling him to come party with us tonight". Or when used in the negative way "My fucking boss is one horrible fucking C! This is the second time that arsehole is after trying to gyp me on overtime this month". So there is absolutely no sexist meaning attached to it and i certainly did not mean to offend anyone by my use of the C word.

I have to add hipsters to my prejudices. They are the most annoying and occasionally enraging group of pricks that have come along since the end of the 90's. There are far too many of them in certain parts of the downtown area here these days and they have totally ruined the music scene in St.johns. They are all in the one circle so if you don't fit in with their little click you are fucked when it comes to ever getting anywhere when it comes to getting gigs if your in a band. Unless you wear skinny jeans, have a flannel jacket that would have cost about $10 back in the 90's but the kind they wear cost about $100, those real low top chuck type grunge sneakers which i bought back in the mid 90's for $5 a pair for no name ones but since they all have to wear the same brand name they pay atleast $50 for them, wear glasses even if you don't need them, have hair that is so greasy you could grow potatoes in it and drink only PBR beer or if your a St.Johns hipster India beer you just aren't going to fit in with them. Also to make matters worse St.Johns is a pretty small place so it's easy to get blacklisted by them. That is one of the major reasons no good bands come out of here anymore because you have to fit in with them as they pretty much run the so called indie scene here.
Between them and the granola hippies i have to avoid the bars they hang out in like the plague. I can't talk to them at all as their pretentiousness get's on my nerves very quickly and between the way i dress, the fact that i shower and my accent i stick out like a sore thumb. Also i hate PBR and India beer (this is a Newfoundland only lager) is not something i would buy either. Not to mention that they say shit that makes me want to smash them in the fucking face! "oh man i used to like Metric but after their first album they became way to commercial and became popular so now i can't like them" :rolleyes:
They are sort of like the last vanguard of capitalism in some ways. They sell individuality by all being the same and somehow convince themselves that they are going against the grain.
Oh and i can't forget chavs either. But everyone hates those suburbanite, blade packing, cowardly cop magnets so that is not really a prejudice. It's more of a i don't want to end up in prison due to these arseholes stupidity then anything else.

Also, it's kind of weird how people are biased against french people, I'm around 65-70% French Canadian, though I can't really say much because I have my own prejudices. I don't speak much french myself but I see alot of other French Canadians talk french up here in Maine and I personally find it quite funny how most people here would not make much of a big deal of it if a french person was speaking french in front of english-speaking people. It's pretty calm up here in terms of bias right now, though it wasn't always like that.. there was a time were french people were so persecuted here that they would have to change their native name to blend in, other than that there seems to be a racist undertone right now where I live against Somali immigrants, though I support their right to live here completely.

I find the company of men tiresome. Being around men and feeling as if one has to, to a certain degree, live up to a masculine stereotype is exhausting. I find if I am in a group of men I am constantly spoken over and that there is an intimidating culture of one-upmanship or plain domination which can manifest itself in terms of violence, hyper-masculinity and/or, what I find most commonly with the sorts of men I know (i.e. leftists), being more knowledgeable. Hopefully I don't prefer the company of women because I find it easier to dominate and/or that as a man women are socialised to be submissive to me or I'm exploiting some form of emotional labour, but because an environment absent of patriarchal masculinity allows me to be relaxed and express myself in ways I'm more comfortable with. Either way it's still a problem, mind.

That's not really prejudice, though. I mean, it would possibly be prejudice if those people bothered you even though they don't bother you or anything (possibly - I mean, their religious practically instructs them to kill their children through denial of medical care, and I reserve the prerogative to be disturbed by that), but when someone comes to your door to bother you, you don't need to tolerate them.
They don't bother people here that much, I think they're afraid of Croatia's peaceful and tolerant Catholic population.

I also find the Scottish people unbearably nationalistic (having lived in Scotland with an English accent for 6 years). However I have begun recently to feel more positive about going back to Scotland, although maybe it's because I have forgotten what it's like.

I get you there. I grew up in your typical rural working class ghetto where the way of settling arguments was with violence. You had to stick up for yourself even if you knew you where gonna get smacked up you had to fight because if you backed down everyone treated you like a *****. You also had to back up your friends and woe was the poor boy who backed down in a gang fight and didn't fight along with your friends. Just about every weekend there was either a gang fight between people from different towns or internal fighting. I can't even count how many fights i got into over the dumbest shit ever. A sick part of me enjoyed it but looking back it was pretty pointless and stupid but those where the cards i was dealt.
Ive always gotten along much better with women then guys. It's probably because i don't have to put on some stupid macho bullshit front. I can actually be honest about how i feel around most women which is something i could very rarely ever do with any guy friends i had. The best friends i have are women because i can open up more to them without being judged and thought of as a wimp or some such bullshit. Their boyfriends always seem to fucking hate me even when i have absolutely no intentions of having any sort of a sexual relationship with them. But i could care less about that. Also women unlike men are not intimidated by me so they have no fear of giving me abit of the truth and calling me out on my bullshit and my stupid self destructive behavior.
I also hate with a passion cool kids. The top dogs on the playground. They make my blood boil.
Don't worry those so called cool kids and top dogs become the town losers once they leave high school. Almost every one of the really "cool kids" in my school ended up as hopeless losers who never went anywhere in life. They usually become the town drunks and total crackheads who have absolutely no hope of ever accomplishing anything in life.

If I told a German I'd been to Hamburg and Berlin, and their reply was "what is 'Hammböhg'? What is 'Böhlinn'? It is 'Hamburg' and 'Berlin'" I'd say "yeah, in German maybe, but I'm clearly speaking English here," and I'm sure they'd understand because they don't say London 'right' themselves! :grin: Actually I'm not sure I like those who go to extreme lengths to pronounce foreign words in the proper way whilst speaking English (or any other language). Like Kanye West on Punk'd that time, "I gotta get to Paree, I gotta get to Paree"...it's Parisssss, you clown!
I mean don't get me wrong, I know 'chorizo' isn't pronounced 'tshoreetsoh' and Ibiza isn't pronounced 'Eyebeeffah,' but if you drop into a proper Spanish accent for isolated words then you're massively pretentious. "I just got back from Balenthia." "Valencia." "That's what I said, Balenthia." Just no. Is this a prejudice, maybe...? :confused:
(But I actually have a bit of a reputation as a 'pronouncer' in restaurants and the like, so maybe I can't complain)

I find the company of men tiresome. Being around men and feeling as if one has to, to a certain degree, live up to a masculine stereotype is exhausting. I find if I am in a group of men I am constantly spoken over and that there is an intimidating culture of one-upmanship or plain domination which can manifest itself in terms of violence, hyper-masculinity and/or, what I find most commonly with the sorts of men I know (i.e. leftists), being more knowledgeable. Hopefully I don't prefer the company of women because I find it easier to dominate and/or that as a man women are socialised to be submissive to me or I'm exploiting some form of emotional labour, but because an environment absent of patriarchal masculinity allows me to be relaxed and express myself in ways I'm more comfortable with. Either way it's still a problem, mind.
Basically, sometimes I hate men.
Well, don't overthink it. Only hang out with who you like. Men, especially young adults will often try to one up each other, and you either deal with it or leave and find others. If that attitude isn't your thing, just move on. Actually, I've seen some pretty horrible things with teenage girls and the way they treat each other.
Me and my prejudices? Well, I try to become a better person in this regard every day, and always put myself out of my comfort zone. But honestly, when blacks (or whites, or hispanics, or anyone else) start doing all the "thug" shit to look cool it enrages me. It's ridiculously sexist, it's homophobic, it's fake, and everybody I know who acts like that is always disrespectful. I know the gangsta culture bullshit is an indirect result of hundreds of years of exploitation (not to mention white men selling that image to young black men), and I know I'm not perfect and that I have to work on it, but it just makes me mad. The way people like that talk to women is probably the worst part. They treat them like accessories. Like a gold chain or pair of shoes.

My understanding is that across the pond the word is a gendered insult; dictionary definion that came up on google:
Noun
vulgar. A woman's genitals.
offensive. A woman.
so by using it as an insult you're calling someone a woman as an insult, which is sexist for obvious reasons. I'm British too, and it doesn't have the same connotations here, but out of respect to people who aren't British, there are so many other insults to use that aren't offensive so just use one of those.

I try my hardest to not have this concern for my own safety turn into general attitudes of racism and classism, and recognise the structural reasons for those bad experiences i've had, rather than 'those damn brown poor people trying to rip me off, what savages, fuck the ghetto', which is an absolutely reprehensible attitude to take from those kinds of experiences.

And I especially, especially hate it when this kind of thing is done by people railing against 'leftist jargon' whose alternative happens to be regurgitated rhetoric about capitalist parasites or some such.

ppl with absolutely 0 social skills who selfishly make people really uncomfortable.
Might be guilty of this sometimes. I often don't engage in people's conversations because I have a combative mentality and don't want to spoil their mood with harsh irrefutable Truth. But when I do talk at length with people something always comes up that reminds me of something I read which I use for political agitprop that spoils the mood.
For example, yesterday was driving home with a friend and he asked if I heard about some guy who was sleeping and was sucked into the earth by a sink whole. Then after a while, he asked me what kind of newspapers I read, as it is so hard to find objective news. I then answer that I read the business press, or at least try to read through the mostly boring articles. Then I am asked jovially why I do that since its not much fun, and answer that I do it precisely because the business press is tedious to read. To me this is logical - the bourgeois press counts on workers not buying overpriced newspapers with a bunch of stock price statistics and economic updates. This class-analytic view is of course strange and uncomfortable, so I go on saying that, as the business press owners and editors know that workers do not read this press, they are relatively among themselves so-to-speak, and are more open about their views. I go on to say that Handelsblatt had a lead article last week titled "Expedition Resources: Germany's New Path", an interview article with a representative of the 'Alliance for Resource Security' in which the view of the top German Corporations is plainly expressed that Germany must grow its "Military and National Security expenditures" to secure Resources for German Industry, as the current political resource partnerships are not enough.
When I finish talking the rather comfortable mood has plainly been destroyed by my political agitprop, and the car has reached home.

Want me to be completely honest? I've strongly disliked the majority of Australians I've met. In fact, out of the 10-15 Australians that I met which I can remember, they've all been racist, rich, ignorant and really un-educated except one dude, and despite him being cool and shit he was still a racist. I love traveling and it's something I do a lot but I have no intention of EVER going to Australia. Way too hot, way too expensive, too many fucking spiders, full of racists, no culture and way too far from everything. Oh and I fucking hate the Australian accent.
Sorry Ozzies. Obviously I don't think every Australian is a wanker and I'm not going to automatically dislike one upon meeting them, in fact I'd probably take an interest in them out of the sole fact I love foreigners, but I more than likely will have some predisposed assumption towards them that there's a good chance they will annoy me.
Also I think it's bullshit that people here dislike others based on the fact they have coloured hair/piercings/dreadlocks.

Though of course I am repugnant myself, it is on a whole different kind of way from your average Swede. I use Swedish so little, that I find myself forgetting words very frequently to a very bad degree.

I hate that the rest of europe, especially young people where I am from, look to london as the place to be and super cool, a city where you can't go to a shop after 11, and the bars close at 12. Generally dislike northern europe to be fair.
Having said that most of my close friends are English, go figure.

i despise people within the left who use the writings of their philosopher of choice the same way christians use the bible. rather than use logic and personal thought to analyse a situation, they immediately quote or reference marx or bakunin and let a discussion degenerate into a regurgitation of rhetoric that someone else came up with. i know that our history is very important, but our present and our future are, as well.

I listened to Nicki Minaj, John McLaughlin, Napalm Death, and Andrew Jackson Jihad all within the past hour.
I've never met a copper I liked. Except one, but he was a Man United supporter so I hated him too.
Gotta second that one cops really are the lowest form of life. They are nothing but state lackeys and they all seem to have the personality or the lack there of that comes with that job. Ive never met one who i could like even putting aside my ideological hatred of coppers.

Stoners
Very religious black girls, specifically Catholic or Pentecostal
People who openly admit that they don't read, especially people who are proud of it
Middle aged blue collar white people
Hippies
White people with dreads
This isn't so much a prejudice but sort of more of a non-PC thing I've noticed but for some reason every college aged white girl likes shitty country music. I mean I have a pretty varied taste in music and I enjoy some Johnny Cash or Hank Williams every now and then but for whatever reason it's always the shitty Luke Bryan Tobe Keith horrible radio country that literally every white girl in my generation is obsessed with, whether they grew up in the sticks or in the city.
I'm not proud of it but I'm definitely suspicious of Asians, because for whatever reason a fuck ton of asian people I've encountered have been racist as shit. Or I guess on revleft you can't say non white people can be racist but w/e.
I really dislike car culture, people who drift, and people who think they know a lot about cars.
I'm also probably latently homophobic. Not in a political sense, I believe in equality for gay/queer/trans/whatever else people, but the fact that I'm a young man in America coupled with the fact that I know a total of (count em) two gay people means I definitely am internally prejudiced against gays. To be honest, I can't even say that I'm working on it because I hardly ever interact with openly gay people. It's shitty but it is what it is I guess.

The bicyclists near where I live. They do not follow traffic laws. If I see one approaching a stop sign, I'll wait, because guaranteed they'll just blow through it without even putting their brakes on and expect everyone to get out of the way. I started doing that when I foolishly expected one to actually stop at the stop sign (four-way!!) and came about 3 feet from sending him to the emergency room. Then they'll run red lights, too, and ride in the middle of the lane instead of off to the side so people can get around them without knocking them over.
And they all wear those fucking spandex suits even though I know damn well they aren't all sponsored athletes, they're yuppies who bike because it's hip now!! I bike when it's nice out, too, (used to ride to work even though I own a car) and cargo shorts with a tee shirt are totally fine. No need for racing spandex!!

Yup, that would be me. I just don't get the concept where store-owners are forced to stay open 24 hours because of people not being able to shop at regular hours. In Holland stores are open from 8 am to 9 pm and on saturdays. People here have no longer working hours than aprox. 8 hours. I believe here noone is unable to shop because they have no time. They just don't want to stand in line for minutes on saturdays or in the evenings. Am i complaining? NO! (and even though i work 8 hours a day, i still have two hours of traveling time daily, so that totals 10 hours AND i have my own company)

Okay so if i want beer, food or condoms at 3AM what the fuck am i going to do? We don't all operate on society's nice little 9-5 clock where everything closes at 9PM when it's still bright out ffs in the summer! Also what about the people who work night shift? If they need to run to the store during their break to get a coffee and a sandwich i guess they are shit out of luck if everything is closed. Ive worked night shift before and there is nothing more annoying then the fact that the vast majority of stores are closed. I like being able to go to the shop at 4 in the morning to pick up a bag of chips and something to drink. Even if i don't i like knowing that i still can.
Oh i forgot about one of my main hatreds of mainland Canada. Beer stores :cursing: . Why the fuck can't you guys (Quebec excluded on this one) get around to coming into the 1900's atleast when it comes to liquor laws and allow people to buy beer at convenience stores, grocery stores, gas stations, etc?

But anyway...i have a 8 to 5 job. I work on an industrial complex. For me there is no running to the store in my break. Nor do i have a food-vending machine there. I take my sandwiches with me from home and, because i don't drink coffee, my drinks too.

Yeah being mainstream doesn't necessarily make something bad, but as a general rule it makes sense to say the best art is that which is treated by its maker as an art, not a commodity.
-People who walk too fucking slowly in front of me getting on the bus. Pick a damn seat before the bus starts moving and I go flying!
-Another bus stop one: People who seem to go out of their way to get as close to you as possible while smoking, even when you try to move away. Don't ruin my lungs just because you've decided to ruin your own.
-Most modern "vampire" stuff. True Blood, Vampire Diaries, Twilight, Count Chocula...When I see something with vampires, I'm looking to be scared.
-Those YouTube videos where people post a clip from a movie, a song, etc. with their own personalized "credits". "Beethoven's 5th Symphony...By FlameSword22. Thanks for watching!"
-Probably plenty more, but I'll skip ahead to the worst thing of all. The basketball court behind where I live, and the people who have nothing better to do than go there for hours on end yelling at the top of their lungs in the middle of the night in summer, and the dribbling that seems to never stop...Yeah.

People who talk overly loud in public. I actively distance myself from them.
Eh. I'm told I do this but to be fair I don't hear well so it sounds normal to me.
Anyway, I've been a hateful bastard pretty much my whole life, but the targets of my hatred have changed dramatically over time.
When I was a kid I was something of an uber-catholic. In particular I disliked Jews, Muslims, and other christians. Probably because these were the groups that my religion had the most conflict with.
Thankfully I've fully abandoned that bullshit, and ironically it's Catholicism that now holds a special place in my hatred list. I feel uncomfortable around pretty much all religious people but they really don't bother me that much any more unless they're zealots.
I'm sort of an anti-American. Of course, I don't hate all Americans, I AM one, but any overt displays of nationalism disgust me to the pit of my stomach. I know that flag wavers aren't all jingoistic assholes, but someone wearing a flag shirt or, god forbid, flying a flag on their lawn will instantly lose some of my respect. I don't like nationalists of any country but these people bother me the most because it's so personal and I used to be one of them.
I'm not a fan of the rich either. I know that some of them can be decent people but they're usually hard to be around because they're always complaining about their stupid problems that I can't relate to.
Now on to the real prejudices and not just the edgy leftist ones.
I have a shameful prejudice against anyone from the American south (and I mean the southern states in the US, I don't have anything against south Americans.) I associate their accent with racism, sexism, Christian zealotry, homophobia, and stupidity. It doesn't help that most self identified rednecks I've met have been all or most of these things. I know that this is dumb and I actively fight it whenever it happens.
I also seem to have picked up some racist/sexist qualities from my environment that I've yet to get rid of. Nothing overt, but little things.
For example. I find that I'm less intimidated when I'm arguing with women.
Admitting this stuff is the first step to doing away with it, and in regards to doing away with it I think I've made a lot of progress so I'm not really too ashamed.
