Surt’s shitposting aside, I am genuinely curious about the subject; especially in relation to this ‘inherent racism’ concept in infants. It seems a bit of a stretch to link an infant’s or toddler’s draw to people who look more like him/her than someone who doesn’t as being absolutely based on racism or some level of racism, when racial preference isn’t necessarily intrinsic with racism and said infant could simply be expressing a preference to what he/she knows. eg an Asian infant is likely going to be surrounded by other Asians more so; so they'll be more positively drawn towards Asian people. To be racism there needs to be a given mindset, a prejudice and/or discrimination towards others that they are inferior to yourself because they are different and have inferior abilities and/or characteristics because of said differences (eg Black people are stupid, Asians have bad eyesight). Fear of others based on something like their skin color is also likely another indicator of racism.
Another example of preference vs racism that has come up on KMC many a time, the flawed concept where a person’s preference in dating or not dating certain people is viewed as racism by default. A White person not finding sexual attraction to Black people is no more racist than a Black person not finding sexual attraction with Asians. It’s just a person’s personal preference, unless the given person’s reasons are specifically based on racism.
I’ve found women of all skin colors and ethnicities attractive, if she’s attractive, that’s what she is. Though I tend to find Caucasian women as a group more attractive than any other group (ie my preference), but there’s plenty of non Caucasian women I find to be beautiful and am sexually attracted to.

Right, I'm shit posting, but the guy creating yet another sock just to respond to his own posts is not. Classic Rob 👆

1) Considering that's all you had to say and focus on considering my on-topic post. Yes, you're shitposting.2) I don't think Whirly made that sock. It's likely another poster. Paranoid.
1) Never said I wasn't, just was laughing at you failing to call out your pal for shitposting as well.
2) Nah, it's clearly him you can tell by the way he posts. Do better next time and I don't wanna see the guy who lied about people dissing him just to appease TI talking about paranoia. I'd move on, if the subject of the topic interests you? Stick to that, no need to die on this hill defending another sock of Putinbots. (You won't be able to help yourself though, just watch)
Rob, a baby being famaliar with those that surround them would be my guess, too. The studies would need to test for adopted infants raised in a multiracial/other racial household, and see if the reactions hold up.
I'm fairly certain even puppies react based on familiarity, which is probably where the "dogs are racist" meme comes from.

Well then, we agree you're shitposting.
Ask a Mod to run the sock checker then, but I think you're wrong and being your usual paranoid self again.
You can keep claiming that I lied, but it's a fact Eon doens't have any animosity towards me and is attacking me for another (silly imo) reason. I showed you he PM'd me, all you need to do is have him post the a screen cap of it since he sent it and I don't post PMs without approval from the sender. It's very telling that you won't ask him to post it, yet cry that I need to. Do better for yourself, be less angry on Fridays.

Yeah, I'd be genuinely interested to see that racism is inherent and not learned, or if it's a combo, where the scale lies. eg 10% inherent and 90% learned from your racist granpa who spoke oh so colorfully around you as a child.
Oh, where you're a White person and your dog seems to always bark at Black people as an example? Could very well be familiarity, could also be the dog sensing (racist?) tension in the owner and reacting that way. Could see it either way.
