Thus while partly correct, the speaker's assertion doesn't go far enough--to account for the
potential harm in drawing false distinctions between types of people.
Yet, in another sense the speaker goes too far by overlooking a fundamental, even
philosophical, reason why we should always look for similarities between things. Specifically, it
is the only way humans can truly learn anything and communicate with one another. Any
astute developmental psychologist, epistemologist, or even parent would agree that we come
to understand each new thing we encounter by comparing it to something with which we are
already familiar. For example, if a child first associates the concept of blue with the sky's color,
then the next blue thing the child encounters--a ball, for instance--the child recognizes as blue
only by way of its similarity to the sky.
Furthermore, without this association and a label for the concept of blue the child cannot
possibly convey the concept to another person. Thus looking for similarities between things is
how we make sense of our world, as well as communicate with one another.
To sum up, I agree that finding false similarities and drawing false analogies can be harmful,
especially when reaching conclusions about people. Nevertheless, from a philosophical and
linguistic point of view, humans must look for similarities between things in order to learn and
to communicate.
