Kind of what I meant, yes. It opens questions like “does the group lack empathy for each other” and “is this a value that more resembles sociopathy or is it intense in/outgroup division?” Also, I’m wondering how far back this goes. Maybe we’re looking at attitudes and sentiment that go back to colonial days, possibly along bloodlines, where people that don’t think this way came along later and/or from other places?
Yeah I see this as a paradox of sorts. An intense focus on outgroups without empathy for them.
Is that along the lines of what you meant? Maybe I am misinterpreting
