The fact that people choose to demonstrate pride for their ingroup by emphasizing its characteristics becomes a way to consider the reason behind senseless rivalries. To me, it seems that the more differences are emphasized the more tension arises due to a desire to be the dominant ingroup. Even though the initial intent may have been to merely display pride, I see how this intent can be easily misconstrued.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I found this article extremely interesting.
