if you personally believe there is a positive correlation between having an ethnic background (mexican or middle eastern or whatever) and doing bad things, I can't control your beliefs

still pretty gross of you though

Beliefs can't be "gross", they can only be true or false, justified or unjustified. There is no such thing as a morally wrong belief. That would be the confusion between fact and value.

  • > Beliefs can't be "gross"

    of course they can, like believing that mexican people are inferior or something – gross

    > they can only be true or false, justified or unjustified

    this is incorrect

    > There is no such thing as a morally wrong belief

    this is also incorrect

    > That would be the confusion between fact and value.

    this, too, is incorrect
