Could say the same for:
Politics.
Religion.
Ethnic groups.
Sport teams.
Cola preference.
Cutting some bits off your genitals or not.
Operaring systems.
Humans are a hoot, huh?
The first three things you brought up are the concepts literally criticised by the unedited original cartoon.
Ok, and I've never seen that.
Politics at its root is ideals about how to structure society though. It does, however, devolve into a team sports mentality in a lot of cases, which is I think what you're getting at.
Yea, several of those things have actual qualitative and quantitative measurements on which they can be compared, but far be it from the common dingdong to think in such lofty terms...
Wait, who the hell is pro genital mutilation!?
... Oh wait, Jews do circumcision... siiiiigghhhh
(I'm also aware some areas of India/middle east do FGM too, but I don't remember if it's for anything close to religous reasons)
Most Christians in the US.
Throws up a little in my mouth.
... Thanks, I wanted to taste breakfast again!
Not only Jews, also US Christians for some reason.
Circumcision happens all over. It's popular in the US, Africa, and Middle east especially.

Getting roasted because people don't want their dingdong cut off... +1 for accuracy though.
Yeah, right? Because saying something exists and showing evidence makes me a terrible person somehow?
