Astrological Racism

I want to express my dissatisfaction with the ignorance exhibited when a person bashes everyone who has a particular sign just because they had a bad experience with someone of that sign... by that same logic, I can hate women because I had a bad experience with a woman.

If you promote "astrological racism" then you legitimize hatred of Black people (all someone has to do is say they had a bad experience with a Black person, judge all Black people by that experience and you can't criticize them without being guilty of hypocrisy, as they're following the same logic you are), Asian people, Latinos, White people, Arabic people, etc.

Every sign has the potential for good and evil and which potential we actualize is based on our free will, on our choices as individuals and is not determined by what's in our chart.
And for those of you (really, us- as I've been gulilty) who have promoted "astrological racism" (for lack of a better term), you twist and corrupt astrology into a tool of ignorance rather than of enlightenment and serve to discredit astrology as a legitimate field of study.
It's just plain idiocy from people. I been bullied one time by a woman for being a Sagittarius. What's her excuse? She was a Pisces and she read somewhere that Pisces and Sagittarius are not compatible. But it was enough to convince her that Sagi's are bad people.

How egocentric of her. The world does not revolve around one particular sign. This is why I'm honestly a little glad that people don't believe in astrology- if people knew it worked, they'd turn it into one more reason to hate each other.

Anyways, being a Sagittarius should be a badge of honor. Y'all are courageous and innovative people. Y'all be on the front lines of what y'all do.
