all this anti-Semitism, homophobia, political ideologies left and right and every religious doctrine is the product of education, inculcation, indoctrination, brainwashing and conning. Nobody is born with it, without adults spewing this nonsense and infecting the intellectually and emotionally vulnerable the world would mind its own business and go on just fine.

Babies have little to no knowledge of anything, certainly no ideologies. They are not atheists or any other IST, for that matter.
