This site creates prejudices.

True, but my overall point is not everyone is prone to prejudice even amongst those that visit this site. In my opinion it's more of a personal preference. Some people choose to be prejudice and others do not. As I see it, it's really that simple.

Prejudice can be favourable or unfavourable. People may not choose to be prejudiced but it's true that they can choose what they will do with it.

There are certain "truths" that are repeated over and over. Enough dumb questions asked over and over to realize people are equating the wrong things with type.

I agree with the OP.

This is why I always come to the conclusion that none of this makes any sense, but still come back to it constantly because I always want to know who, what, and where I am according to the people around me. That's the draw, because I'll never really know and when I see a new idea or perspective about it I am always intrigued.

Oh, go to INTPc and make a couple posts a day and see if you change your mind on the type that you think is most prejudice :p.

Indeed!

I'm not really sure if I equate prejudice to mean in support of or against something. I personally view prejudice as drawing conclusions without all the facts. While in my opinion prejudice might occasionally be forced by the environment (say a life or death situation) for the most part prejudice is basically a choice. People either choose to draw a conclusion from something with very little information about it or they don't.

This is how I define prejudice - Prejudice - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Because of this site(or rather one member here) I now hate Australians.

Shouldn't it have the opposite effect?

I'm gonna have to agree. Just because most of people's lives are sh*t - doesn't entitle them to utter such, such, and such things that would possibly grant them distraction. This is truly disappointing.
