We live in a righty's world and this is seen in much of everyday design. Equipment like scissors, comp mouses, school desks and cameras are almost exclusively made for righties. And while in the west a lefty is no longer considered inadequate on a personal level, in some countries esp in asia and mena the bias is so strong such ppl are seen as cursed and forced to learn to use their right hand, which often leads to psychological problems. In fact in the ussr this was standard practice up until the 80s. Anyways thanks for reading

    Humans really do pick the most random thing to discriminate against each other.

    "Oh you write with your left hand? You're possessed, we can only help you by forcing you to use your bad hand and punishing you for doing what comes naturally"

      I feel like left handedness is a good starting litmus test for who's unsalvageable, because it's so fucking random and unpropagandized that anybody with a prejudice here has no excuse, and is really just fertilizer

      poll for who has prejudice against left-hands, and then allow the high scorers to ((play minecraft))

        Typical western leftists, just itching to murder third world workers for not being sufficiently "woke". That does it, I'm going to become a Candace Owens of the left-handeds.
