   May we teach our children the only thing that truly matters is how we regard the dignity of people.

   I find most successful Americans I meet are so self-obsessed they are left with an incredibly low capacity for empathy for those in lower classes than them. Wild how they think they are so different than Nazis.

         Ursula sounds like a selfish cnut, too.

         What dehumanizing stereotype did you read?

         I suspect the reason what I wrote is hard for you to read, and elicits that reaction in you to find some story that might contradict my statement, is because people need to think of themselves as good people. It's too much of a cognitive dissonance and shameful to think otherwise.
