Ahm. I don't mean to be rude, but you seem to have made a grammatical
error here, and as a non-native English speaker, I thought you might
appreciate a correction.
The verb "to have prejudices" is quite irregular, and in fact only
resembles its infinitive in the third person: "he has prejudices".
The second person form is "you have biases". (The first-person form
is, of course, "I have keen insight into general truths.")
Just FYI.
