inductive logic seems to be the cause of most of humanity's misunderstandings. ex: if A of group 2 is bad, then all of group 2 is bad.

happens with music all the time. it's easy to stereotype music, because labels give a convenient organizational method. ex: if Aceyalone is hip-hop and you hate hip-hop, you must hate Aceyalone. the end result is you're missing out on a fuckload of good music. it's necessary to generalize, but to generalize negatively in a broad absolute way means you miss out on life.
