The thing is, gesturing vaguely at something (…) obvious, is not really a source
Yeah, it’s not like there’s a lot of people honestly and precisely detailing how they developed their bigoted attitudes. That doesn’t mean that you can’t reason your way to a logical conclusion, though.
No, this (ascertaining the underlying causes of bigotry) is a place where definitive data by definition can’t exist and thus logically reaching the most probable conclusion based on what IS known must take its place.
I’m trying to assume that your demands for the impossible are in good faith, but it’s getting difficult .
As I said before, claiming data can’t exist is a lazy cope-out. I also presented an example of data that could work: antisemitic attacks per day vs activity of Israel in Gaza, plotted over time. Just an example, I’m no sociologist.

As far as bad faith reading goes, ignoring the word “definitive” to make your strawman fit is up there 🙄

Nobody ever told you the difference between correlation and causation or the fact that bigotry consists of SO much more than just overt violence, did they?
It’s clear that nothing good will come from continuing to indulge you, so I’m gonna go now. Have the day you deserve.

This is a place where you need data, not reasoning to a plausible conclusion.

I repeat: just one example.
