How to use "Discriminate" in context?
When we discriminate, we are making a judgment about someone or something. Sometimes it is an easier decision to ignore someone or something because we don't want to deal with them. Other times, we may make assumptions about someone or something based on their appearance or what we know about them.
We can be consciously or unconsciously discriminatory. We can act out our biases in our words and actions, or we can just not pay much attention to someone or something. In some cases, it can be difficult to stop discriminating, especially if it's something that we feel is important to us.
But discrimination doesn't have to be negative.
