👉 A pyrostereotype is a stereotype that holds that people of certain racial or ethnic backgrounds are inherently racist or sexist, even when there is no logical basis for this. It can take various forms such as attributing traits to individuals based on stereotypes, believing that certain characteristics are innate and cannot be changed, or labeling someone as inherently racist just because they belong to a certain group. These stereotypes often lead to discrimination and prejudice towards people of these racial or ethnic backgrounds.
