Papilio, When I first read your post David Berrebys book came to mind. Here is a link iif you haven’t read the book. It discusses the very aspect of us and them division mentioned by yourself. www.nationalgeographic.com/magazine/2018/04/things-that-divide-us/Have you read the book? Seems as you may have. It’s difficult to find book readers now in days with the internet and our constantly busier lifestyles. No, I had not previously read the article or the book and just now had time to review the NatGeo article. I was unaware of research projects to reprogram group think. Interesting, but also realize that lab results do not always translate well to real world environs. I'll be very interested in how the various Ohio police departments experiment turned out.

Personally, I view politics and politician's with much disdain. I also believe that most of them have a DA Degree.
I will say no more about politics. Or lying thieving, pedophile, sexual perverts that we elect to Washington DC.
How do you get elected to Congress which pays an annual salary of $174,00 per year, serve one term and retire a millionaire.

I think distrust of anybody who's different had survival value in the early days of human evolution. People had to be prepared to defend themselves against others with unknown intentions. There could possibly be one or more components of our genome that code for such behavior, although I doubt any research has been done on the subject.
