"Everyone in America is an illegal immigrant".
NO! We have a government in place, a system intact (here and there, the gray areas don't matter on this one), and the whole argument about how the Natives had their land stolen is rubbish. It was won by hardship, blood, iron, and warfare. Many of the tribes murdered and committed atrocities too, so to automatically assume that others should be allowed to come here and bypass the system is an insult to the past dead and those who were born here. I have no moral obligation to care either, just because others in some country that willingly steals from American soil cannot make it over here legally. The system isn't broken, the morality in human beings is.
And I am one sixteenth Tsalagi Native American. I am also a blood descendant of Senator Henry Clay. Stop using my past and my dead ancestors to steal from those who ARE born here and whose parents ARE citizens.
"All religion is evil".
Some people never put the mindset into an open minded perspective that anything above the knowledge of physics and science can be real regardless of the reason.
"All people in [insert political party here] are idiots."
There have been good presidents and bad presidents from both side over the history of this country. For every Richard Nixon there's a Jimmy Carter.
"People were primitive in the past."
Correction, they were not primitive, just not in your eyes and mind as to what qualifies as advanced. Just because something came from the past (religion, morals, fables, etc) does not automatically qualify them as ignorant.
"If you don't accept [insert something against the norm and not widely accepted by society] then you're automatically a man of hatred, intolerance, bigotry, evil, and you deserve to be killed for the advancement of mankind."
Har har...the hypocrisy.
"Heavy Metal is for idiots."
You just don't enjoy it...I can say the same thing about Radiohead, Placebo, Muse, Mars Volta, etc and it would hold as much weight as your argument.
