There is a theory that like many other behaviours, looking for groups of similar appearance and other attributes to join is a social function left over from when we were apes. But while we might be born with that instinct, full blown racism is choice people either reject or embody during their life.

@SW-User Yes thats apparently what they are getting at. Something that is encoded in use but also something redundant and not something that has to govern your principles. It’s more applicable to how you identified a friend on your first day of school rather than the bigger issues in the world.
