My personal hatred is reserved for spiders. Fuckn 8 legged fly eating web spinning bastards.
you used a poignant example I have been meaning to bring to this conversation
many of our biases are biologically rooted
the fear of spiders is real and born from necessity at one time in our evolutionary development but is it still rational today?
this biologically rooted reactions are what are exploited
from sugar alcohol race gender sexuality and tobacco companies to government business and even the religions
it is part of our nature to exploit others for our own benefit and once against evolutionary even this behavior is rooted in our biology, but once again is it still rational today to follow it?
