Researchers Find Racial Bias In Virtual Worlds
schliz writes "Real-world behaviours and racial biases could carry forward into virtual worlds such as Second Life, social psychologists say. According to a study that was conducted in There.com, virtual world avatars respond to social cues in the same ways that people do in the real world. Users, who were unaware that they were part of a psychological study, were approached by a researcher's avatar for either a 'foot-in-the-door' (FITD) or 'door-in-the-face' (DITF) experiment. While results of the FITD experiment revealed no racial bias, the effect of the DITF technique was significantly reduced when the experimenter took the form of a dark-skinned avatar."
Also, you were brainwashed by the media and schooling system to be instilled with White Guilt, for the purpose of causing the exact result you are describing (among other purposes).
No, more like brainwashing. Whites are being brainwashed to mix with alien races in order to destroy their distinctness and cause their extinction.
Studies show that outbreeding depression is worse than inbreeding depression.
Studies showed that after a population size of approximately 500, that inbreeding depression is so negligible that increasing the amount of population makes almost no difference. There are two studies that both came to that number (one exactly, the other was close). One study was done on snakes, the other on horses I believe. None were done on humans for political correctness reasons. The proof of human correlation with the two studies i mention is that in Iceland, until recently, the average distance between couples was 3rd cousins, and look how high quality Icelandic people are, very high GDP, very high standards of living, 100.0000% literacy rate, etc. Only a little more than 300 thousand people there.
Also, to see the fallacy in the current line of thinking with inbreeding, just extend it to its obvious ridiculous conclusion.
If the White race is being damaged by not breeding outside their race, then the human species is being damaged by not breeding outside their species. We need more interspecies matings with aliens and animals, or we are going to devolve.
Yeah, damned vampires and demons! I kid! Sides, I say this as a furry. Most the time it's not really prejudice, it's more like caution towards us.
It's not caution. Furries should be gassed.

This is to you and everyone who is bringing up the same thing about when I said "everyone prefers":
First off, I believe that most people, having had enough intelligence, and not having the aim to simply nit pick with anecdotal evidence, easily understood what I said to mean that "everyone has the inherent *instinct* to prefer".
Of course there are exceptions. There is probably one in a million who are defective due to random mutation, and thus do not have this instinct intact, and then there are those who are brainwashed to override said instinct using their mind. Just as one can resist the instinct to eat long enough to starve to death, one can override the instinct to preserve one's own race. People could also be overriding the instinct due to mental damage caused by life experiences other than brainwashing. For example, people who's same sex parents were abusive to them have a much higher chance of dating and liking people from a different race.
