excuse me NPR people, kittens mature more quickly than humans and really do not seem to care much about what color or religion other cats are, so please forgive me if this is information that all humans know and cats do not:
but what is the right age to start discussing communism and propaganda in public broadcasting with your children?
because if this is the sort of stuff that they broadcast, i’m thinking maybe it needs to be before 6 months.
If this is true, then maybe there is a biological reason for this. Preferring one's own race doesn't necessarily mean disliking another. This reminds me of trying to force left-handers to use their right at a very early age.
one of the enormous biological imperatives for a hominid is recognizing its own parents. you need to know who the caregiver/protector is and bond with them. the idea that this is somehow racist is absurd. knowing who mom and dad are (and looking like dad when you are young so he accepts you as his) is straight down the middle of the evolutionary fairway.
literally no one would argue about this in chimps. so, what, humans are magic? we do not face the and have not faced the same evolutionary pressure?
pull my other paw. it plays jingle bells.
this is like trying to claim that crying when you are hungry is racial privilege.
this "sesame workshop" survey is nonsense and was contrived as propaganda.
I think 6 month olds need to be taught more about hygiene. With all 3 of my children, it was not unusual at that age to play with their own feces or vomit. We are surely failing them.

NPR is not on my like list. I do not do propaganda.
I do not like NPR. Play music and shut up.
