What else would you judge someone except their beliefs and their actions?

Do you really want to try to make the argument that prejudice against skin color is the same category of thing as disagreeing with ideas?

I don't think you read my post. I said prejudice against an entire group of people for their beliefs.

Such as the common one I see on HN: All Trump supporters are racist or all Republicans hate anyone that is gay.

It's just as damaging to our society as racism, yet seems to be perfectly acceptable in many circles.

So you're saying it's okay to be prejudiced against people because of religious beliefs?

Like... say... Judaism, for example?

[danharaj]

That's such a transparent strawman. The point is that a judgement has merit solely based on its justification, not on its syntactic form.

I don't think you can justify prejudice against Jews. People who think they can often use epistemological frameworks I find, to be frank, stupid. At the end of the day, we can judge ideas based on their content, their meaning. The idea that this is equivalent to an irrational judgement, like one based on skin color, is what I am attacking here.

No one is making irrational judgments based off of the amount of photons that are being reflected.

Many Indians can't reflect many photons, either. Police aren't shooting them.

Let's see if you can make the leap into what is being inferred with this obvious observation.
