An important mechanism, for it automatizes and disindividualizes power.

My Father, my Aunt Mirta and my husband Scott.…
When we focus on our differences in a negative way, the rhetoric of the community can have a substantial impact on the discourse itself. Saying that a certain thing holds characteristics, makes others believe those claims in a viral way. This can ultimately lead to these claims becoming what is real.
