So I am a part of the LGBTQ community and work in a big city in middle europe. A lot of my coworkers are religios and have a foreign background. They are mostly very nationalist and homo-/transphobic. I hate them for their blind hate and bigotry, which wont change. I have realised, that I have become a bit bigotred towards people like them in the last few months, which is, even tho my biases often revealed to be true, just unfair to them. How could I stop that?

    Attribution biases, confirmation biases, and xenophobia are human conditions. Some are greater affected by personality than others (which you can’t change as an adult). All you can do is acknowledge that you do it and work to reduce it. Anyone who says they’re immune is delusional.
