if you read the insert from Wikipedia below you might have a glimpse of how goofy people can be when thinking of groups of people who might not be in the same group as you.
The bias that humans can display regarding race and religion seem to top the list of categories when it comes to defining other people.
Obviously Politics is important but I've found decisions made politically usually stem from one's belief system.

The Universe has a system of order and chaos
The human experience is a tangent of that system that both establishes
ORDER
AND
CREATES CHAOS
BELIEF SYSTEMS DIRECTLY LEAD TO CHAOS
Acceptance with investigation and introspection creates more order
The mysteries of the universe will always outnumber the known realities
AND CHAOS WILL FOREVER EXIST
OUR JOB SIMPLY MIGHT BE.............TO AVOID EXTINCTION
THIS ARTICLE BELOW IS FROM WIKIPEDIA AND IT REALLY SHOWS HOW CHAOS CAN BE MANUFACTURED BY A BELIEF SYSTEM
ITS JUST A SMALL PORTION REGARDING THE SUBJECT OF EUGENICS
I HOPE YOU WILL TAKE THE TIME TO READ THE ENTIRE ARTICLE
The American eugenics movement received extensive funding from various corporate foundations including the Carnegie Institution, Rockefeller Foundation, and the Harriman railroad fortune.[14] In 1906, J.H. Kellogg provided funding to help found the Race Betterment Foundation in Battle Creek, Michigan.[12] The Eugenics Record Office (ERO) was founded in Cold Spring Harbor, New York in 1911 by the renowned biologist Charles B. Davenport, using money from both the Harriman railroad fortune and the Carnegie Institution.[15] As late as the 1920s, the ERO was one of the leading organizations in the American eugenics movement.[12][16] In years to come, the ERO and the American Eugenics Society collected a mass of family pedigrees and provided training for eugenics field workers who were sent to analyze individuals at various institutions, such as mental hospitals and orphanage institutions, across the United States.[17] In the 1923 report of the Second International Congress of Eugenics, Henry F. Osborn emphasized the importance of maintaining the historic republican institutions supporting the ongoing consciousness at the time of opposing biological principles to the melting pot theory.[18] Eugenicists such as Davenport, the psychologist Henry H. Goddard, Harry H. Laughlin, and the conservationist Madison Grant (all of whom were well-respected during their time) began to lobby for various solutions to the problem of the "unfit."[15] Davenport favored immigration restriction and sterilization as primary methods; Goddard favored segregation in his The Kallikak Family; Grant favored all of the above and more, even entertaining the idea of extermination.[19]
