People Just Naturally Like Those who are Similar

I got into a little discussion with someone here over what so many like to call "racism". As I pointed out to him:

You can't seriously expect everyone to like everyone else; that's not going to happen. It's a part of human nature to like those who are similar to us, and treat with suspicion those who aren't.

And I'm right. You may not personally like that fact, but it's true nevertheless, and there is nothing objectively wrong about that.

Maybe that is why we are here on Similar Worlds to find people having some sort of similarity with us.

@ABCDEF7 Yeah, but she's using it to justify racism.

@LordShadowfire Hmm.. You maybe right.

those who are similar to us

What type of dissimilarity, you think can be justifiable to treat someone with discrimination?

and treat with suspicion those who aren't

Are suspicion and racism same? And even the suspicion required for dissimilar people? I don't think so. And if you think so, these are your personal views. Tell me why should I hate or discriminate with you if you are not having similarities with me?
