When we talk about prejudice, of whatever kind, we trigger the idea of ​​difference, of distinction. When we don't talk about prejudice but show knowledge about equality, then we make equality evidence.
By showing difference or talking about difference, we trigger the idea of ​​distinction in the brain. If we need to mention it, it is because we also unconsciously believe that it can exist. We all have prejudices within us, it is imprinted in our genetic code as a result of everything we have gone through in our evolution, but there are those who are not aware of equality and their personality can be more perverse in relation to difference, and this side is more sadist of prejudice may be internalized, but not active.
Upon hearing about prejudice, this individual can activate his dark side and start acting with prejudice.
We have to be aware of equality, of why we are equal within a knowledge base, and then we will have an exact notion of what equality would be and we would no longer talk about prejudice.
In this way, to evidence something as opposed to something else is to create breaks, it is to establish patterns and to believe that those who do not follow them appear as a deviation.
Not having prejudice does not mean that we all have to be the same. On the contrary, not having prejudice is believing that we all have the same value, highlighting the differences that make us unique and that enrich the world we share.
There are several types of prejudice, from cultural to religious, including racial. And there is also a paradox in this struggle. If what moves us is our difference, why do we say we are fighting for equality? Before we have the notion that we are all equal in human terms, we should fight for the acceptance of our difference and make it not a war, but a contribution.
