REGINA – A local business man has saved himself 8 seconds of critical thinking after quickly using a contemptuous stereotype to avoid any empathy for a fellow human being’s situation
Karl Ladynski, a hardware store owner, was driving to work when he saw a homeless man asking for spare change and immediately explained to himself that his misfortune was a result of him being lazy.
“I don’t have precious seconds to mull about humanity” said Ladynski who has employed several other stereotypes about welfare recipients, aboriginals, muslims and people who do hot yoga. “It’s a pretty straightforward explanation and justifies this reality. Thinking about these things is just too hard. In a world where time is money, stereotypes are an economic imperative!”
Ladynski has been spreading this time saving technique among his friends and families who have the same ability, race, class, culture, sexuality and religion as he does.
“I don’t know how I would see the complicated world if I didn’t have a narrow-minded explanation on how it works” Ladynski added after reminding himself that women are terrible drivers so he should be careful on the road.
