Do stereotypes have any truth to them?

RE: Do stereotypes have any truth to them?
(June 21, 2025 at 10:42 am)Charlie Boy Wrote: Now, contrast this with contemporary usage — or rather, misuse — of the term, especially within progressive or “leftist” ideological frameworks. Today, the accusation of “stereotyping” is flung not at those engaging in playful exaggeration but at anyone daring to point out trends or patterns that are inconvenient to the dominant narrative of egalitarian harmony. Here, the label “stereotype” is applied, with astonishing malice, to what can only be described as objective observation: statistically supported generalizations about group behaviors, cultural tendencies, or demographic realities.
