Are aristocratic quadras more prone to xenophobia and racism?

[gakuenita]

Just wondering. I'd be interested in hearing any viewpoints on this matter.

(This is coming from someone who is a Beta, by the way.)

Uneducated people are more prone to xenophobia and racism. Ignorance and culturally perpetuated hatred are not socionics-related. I.e., Aristocracy sees privilege and group classifications but doesn't necessarily discriminate.

That is an interesting question! @Chae already said everything that I could think of


But I'd like to add: People are taught xenophobia from their parents, idols, family, social groups, but we are also hardwired to prefer people who are “like us”. It's an irrational fear that can be found in any sociotype or dichotomy.


This might interest you (Wikisocion):


"Division of people into "mine" and "not mine" is frequently attributed to aristocracy. In actuality, this division holds true for any types that values white ethics (Fi), including the democratic types (SEE, and in particular ESI)"

I'll only add to the replies above that Quadra do not exist in isolation from each other. Remembering about supervision and benefit relations, there is a lot of feedback and correction that comes from Democratic Quadra to Aristocratic ones. If some population is advocating racism and xenophobia, then it has to infect both aristocratic and democratic types in the populace.
