You were the outgroup

i feel your pain

You’re damn right!!! It means nothing that some people were treated like animals and absurdly abused (for centuries) not-so long-ago, and now mostly live in poverty mostly because of this not-so-distant past. Now we’re all the same, and if you suffer from structural racism, it’s not my fault. And as my buddy here predicts, because he can see into the future, that’s the best we’l get. Buddy, the world changes. Deal with it instead of windging about it.

What if you are falling prey to another cognitive distortion? All/nothing thinking? Sure, there many be some aspects of ingroup bias that fuel more in group cohesion/protection & seeing other as a threat/wrong merely because they are “other”, that survival mechanism of competing for resources, preference for our “group”…however, there is ALSO a lot of racism, discrimination, that is based on fear, misinformation, fear of the unknown/uncertain (even if it can be better, poor emotional intelligence and so on. It’s very complex. However we cannot substitute the effects of racism, cloak it over with a new term of ingroup bias…as that does create dismissal, invalidation, minimization, justification, for unspeakable traumas, the collective pain, a domino effect, which is cumulatively transmitted if not processed/heard/felt/expressed. We need to get better at complexities of humanity and ourselves. Rarely are things easily answered. Too often we try to find a simple answer, while ignoring all the rest…as a subconscious strategy to feel better (often trying to resolve the cognitive dissonance that is created with so much information).

No.
