and, i mean, there are powerful monkey self-interest reasons for why they have those categories, no question
well, i mean, they might just be using entirely different principles from the ones you think are relevant

-
like maybe they aren't using "you can't generalize groups from their worst members" at all
-
maybe they're using "you shouldn't make generalizations about groups that aren't valid"
-
wouldn't that amount to the same thing?
-
nope! then it's okay to generalize based on the worst members if their behavior is validly representative of the group
-
what determines that? social construction of reality among their peers! yaaaay *vomit*
