How do you believe people can move from stereotype all the way to genocide? What does it take for someone to be willing to "look

mr Goodwill [35]

Answer:

Find the answers and explanation below.

Explanation:

1. When people are stereotyped (that is have a particular way they view those who are different from them, which is usually negative) towards others they tend to develop hatred for them. All the actions of the stereotyped group are viewed with suspense and when the opportunity presents itself (perhaps in form of a small misunderstanding), the hatred can compel those with stereotyped views to exterminate the others.

2. So long as the individual does not belong to the victimized group, and he also nurses ill-feelings about them, then, he can actually 'look the other way' when a genocide is happening.

3. I strongly believe that genocide is something that could happen in today's society.

In today's society when people hate others because they do not come from their tribes, nor share the same skin color with them, and these views are escalated through comments on the internet, a genocide can easily happen. It takes just a volatile comment from a person with a negative view of others, a reaction from an offended person, and the publicization of such an event for a genocide to happen.
