I agree. Perhaps I should have said it’s been my experience that it’s been homogeneous cultures whose chauvinism lends itself to a lack of exposure to different ethnic groups which allows bigotry to be openly and non-critically expressed. I realize I’m straying from the original Issue of symbols now, but I find these behaviors interlinked.
Or maybe it’s been the enclaves I’ve met.
I’m spit-balling here, feel free to help me refine this.
