Answer:

Prejudice

Step-by-step explanation:

Prejudice is a way of thinking about a certain group of people based on the stereotypes about them. The groups can range from racial groups, gender-based, and even political affiliations. Prejudiced thinking is commonly negative and is usually not based on rational thoughts. It is often used as a way to create in-group/out-group distinction and has often been used to justify many atrocities in the world.
