Part of brain responsible for anti-Semitism identified

Neuroscientists in London have identified the part of the brain responsible for anti-Semitism and other kinds of prejudice, in a pioneering new study exploring how people form negative stereotypes.

Researchers at University College London, led by Hugo Spiers, identified activity in the anterior temporal lobe which suggests that the brain is pre-wired to prejudice.

While there has already been work on gender or racial stereotyping, this is the first time scientists have looked into how brains learn to link undesirable characteristics to specific groups and how this later emerges as prejudice.

Participants were given information about fictitious social groups, painting the groups as ‘good’ and ‘bad,’ with some things bucking the trend. Once a group was seen as essentially good, brain activity in the anterior temporal pole quickly tailed off, regardless of whether there was ‘good’ or ‘bad’ information about them. However, it continued to respond strongly to any negative information about the behaviour of the ‘bad’ group.

“The data does suggest that the temporal pole of the human brain is responsible for people learning prejudice of any kind, including anti-Semitism,” said Spiers, acknowledging the implications for real-life social groups at risk of negative stereotyping. “We’d love funding for work to help explain why some people end up more prejudiced, and how people unlearn prejudice.”

Here's the problem with the study: the information fed the participants was about 'ficticious' groups, and the brain retained the info, remembering it even when faced with 'outliers'.

That doesn't compare to 'prejudice' based on observations of REAL groupings of people. Your brain has that function, as they said, PRE wired to work in exactly that way, for a reason.

Because the brain is remembering the association, it's called 'associative learning'.

Same function in being bitten by a Brown Recluse spider, getting sick, and then avoiding all Brown Recluse spiders from then on, not caring if one or two are 'not gonna bother you'.

It's funny but it also pisses a dork like me off, misuse of a study like that. They will be lining folks up for their lobotomies in the future, sticking a fork in the 'Jews are behaving nefariously' recognizing spot til we chant the phrase 'We are all just people' mindlessly.

Re anti-semites :
Critical thinking now is a 'problem' according to them,
but never their own actions or their cult.

Kikes are responsible for anti semitism, anyone with a brain will notice that kikes are sex predators, liars, cheats and thieves.

All anyone needs to do is watch The Eternal Jew which was made in 1940 and you will see they are causing the us the same problems today.
