    Same style as before.

    1. We call African Americans that because many of them do originally come from Africa. For sure there will be different tribes or ethnic groups within a huge continent like Africa. There have been many tribes within the UK too, but because of evolution those groups have more in common than the tribes of East Asia do. They do not look alike, they tend to differ physically, and it turns out that the brains appear to operate somewhat differently in terms of average intelligence. Is that really such a terrible thing, does it mean people cannot get along despite their differences? It is you casting about language like 'sub species' here and that is incredibly racist. All I say is that research and evidence tells us differentials exist and again and again you are told that there are amazing people in any group. What troubles you so much?

    What do you even mean when you say that I 'want races so badly'? Your language sounds emotional and strange. I don't want anything except to know the truth. It doesn't make me emotional to know that the average Japanese person is smarter than the average British person. It is just data, information, a way to understand, and in my view to also LEARN. Some societies do things better than some societies and others do things worse whence my arguments about nurturing, but more on that later.


    2. I am glad that you are carrying out research that will help humanity. You have a good heart.

    In the battle of IQ differentials you will find a lot of common overlap between Europeans as they have evolved fairly similarly. Most of the people in Northern Europe have evolved slightly differently, but in terms of intelligence the numbers are pretty steady. America is the most interesting case though because it is the same country and still differentials are being produced. Now there has to be a reason why Blacks and Hispanics don't do as well as whites who are in the middle and Asians and Ashkenazi Jews who are way ahead. If IQ tests are a white mans tool, then those Asians must be the supreme shape shifters and if you want to know which Asians do the best generally? The Japanese, Koreans, Chinese, and so on. Again they have a closer historical evolutionary bond than the Celts, Angles, Saxons, Vikings, Romans etc. did or indeed do. They evolved differently as everyone around the world has.

    3. Actually I am trying to read through your post, but it is so meandering and convoluted, I am not sure where to go with it at times. Yeah, I guess as a historical Normal probably crossed with some Angle blood, I might not be as smart as many other people in this world and that's nature for you. I would also argue that nurture played a role as I was poor, homeless, nutrient deprived, emotionally deprived etc too, but I guess though my Dad abandoned me, he did leave me with a brain that did work pretty well and that was my get out card. But imagine if I had been nurtured and given nutrients and all those glorious things! The potential! And even then I have done okay, despite some messy hangovers and a bit of surgery here and there.

    That's all I really want is to see people raised with love and to fulfill their potential the best that they can and as I argued before that comes with a man and a women displaying a little bit of responsibility and doing things properly. I could rage and impregnate and fill my heart with nihilism, but I realize that it is a road to nowhere. Rap is a genre that particularly promotes nihilism. As does a bunch of friends mocking you for listening to your teacher. As do parents who do not give you the time of day. That's where I start with all of this. Once you work on nurture, then you can think about nature a little bit later on, but you should never ignore facts.

    4. No, you are not inferior at all and you should stop talking like that. That you are engaging and doing it pretty civilly, unlike someone else who cannot do that, and that is cool. I feel no superiority over you in the slightest. We are all just different and as individuals most of all, but there are many overlaps as we are just human and not 'sub species'.

    5. You brought up Obama there and I think he is a solid man in terms of how he carried himself in some ways. He was also a war criminal who did very little to encourage black self responsibility and also worked for vested interests. However, I can see that he is a smart man and I have no beef with him in that regard. Credit to any man that raises his children well.

    6. It is a fact that 3 quarters of black children are born out of wedlock and no that does not mean that none of them have a father or do not know their father. However, the black community is more likely to have an absent father than any other group. That is also because so many tend to carry out crimes that they did not to do. The black divorce rate is higher. It is better to be raised in a loving marriage as it is a contract of loyalty and again should be entered into with responsibility and care. I do think any broken family regardless of race is harmful either knowingly or unknowingly and it happens far too often. In the black community a child is twice as likely to be sexually abused because stand in fathers can be very questionable. Not only did the mother choose a bad man, but she then chose a child abuser. That is sick. But yeah, I agree with you that absent fathers are a huge problem in the West in general and I know how harmful it is. It certainly doesn't help a child or set a good example.

    7. Nope. You won't find me on Stormfront or anything like that. My values are simple traditional values and I think it all starts with tidying your room. Jordan Peterson should be required reading in schools rather than books about how great being a transgender is. Sort out the basics and go on from there. I am not interested in race conflict or being superior. I just want to see a better life for children and that will in turn make things better for all and it starts with good old fashioned self responsibility and making good choices and it starts with choosing your partner carefully and working as a team otherwise government will always be the bailout option and it negates any progress.

    OK.

    And let's go all the way with this. Don't wimp out. Don't chicken out. Don't make jokes.

    Let's go all the way.

    Let's unpack this all the way.

    And let's see who makes more sense. OK ?

    I mean. I pretty much know what your gonna say because I know how you think because I've debated with white supremacist you all my life. But anyway
    By labeling everyone as a white supremacist you have pigeon holed 850,000,000 people. About 11% of the worlds population. You must live in constant fear, they are everywhere
    Those are the PEOPLE, what about.....





    Those guys?
    Damn you even got a white one good job

Think about nutrition, well being, nurture, really make sure you are being the best possible mother you can be. No white person is stopping a black person from choosing a partner carefully or reading a few books and practicing what one learns.
    As I said before

    What you are saying about black fatherlessness is false and a lie and see this is a common thing white supremacist try to do.

    They say a lie like "Black people commit 70% of murders" and then they try to get black people to defend that lie.



    First off can you explain to me why Iceland (One of the whitest countries you can find ? Has the highest rates for father-lesness ?



    Why would a white person want to talk about black illegitimacy ? You don't care. Because if you were truly concerned about illegitimacy, you'd also be just as concerned about white illegitimacy too.

    Your understanding of the Black community. Out of wedlock birth does not mean what conservative whites project it does in Black households. Most of those children still have two parents that just decided to cohabit instead of marry. That phenomenon isn't just taking place in Black America, some all white European nations also have exceedingly high out of wedlock births.

    Statistics can only give us data, before we draw any inference from these data we need to be sure all the factors contributing to what we are collecting data on has been taken into account. Statistics based inferences have their flaws, being a member of the ‘superior race’ you should know this. Right ?

    Intelligence itself is very hard to define, whether IQ tests are a good measure of intelligence is hotly debated, the definition of race is unclear, there is no genetic proof as of yet that indicates the existence of traits unique to what we call a particular race(based on their appearance and known ancestry), yet you are sure blacks are inferior.

    A person of the master race should know better

    So what you are saying is this : A black cat and a white cat are not both cats. They are different species. So are you saying that there is no single human race ? There are just different races which just happen to look little bit alike.

    I think you are just scared. A more ballsy guy would’ve said already that science proves that blacks are dumb. But since you and your kind are too scared, you try to find some sort of pseudo-scientifical dress which you can wear in the racist ballroom gala

    In many way it's a waste of time even debating with you as you can’t argue facts against beliefs. People believe what they want and they will always use confirmation bias to justify what they want to be true. If you want to believe that people are inherently inferior, just like people in the Eugenics movement did, then nothing will convince them otherwise except possibly time. Going through such efforts in trying to prove the superiority of one group over another obviously comes with an agenda. And it’s not a scientific one.

    Even when you look at the main people running around trying to prove how stupid black ppl are

    • Steve Sailer, journalist/computer salesman.
    • J. Philippe Rushton, psychologist.
    • Francis Fukuyama, political economist.
    • Richard Herrnstein, psychologist (Bell Curve Author)
    • Charles Murray, political scientist (Bell Curve Author)
    • Arthur Jensen, psychology professor.

    You notice anything strange? No biologists or anthropologists, much less geneticists.

    Why trust these people over biologists and anthropologists, the very people who study these things for a living? To leave no stone unturned, some biologists and anthropologists have even written books about race for the general public:

    You are trying to hijack science in the same way that people hijack religion.............. to promote their agenda.

    The problem is: unlike in religion, science is far less open to interpretation. Which is why they so often.

    Define “race” in humans in scientific terms first. That is, unambiguously and universal throughout the world, not only the USA

    You'll never find such mention in serious scientific publications.

    We never really drill down to the nuts and bolts that need to be asked of guys like you and you kind of like that. Because you never have to actually put your ideas out there on the line to be scrutinized.

    You can always claim ideological martyr status for being shouted down as being iconoclasts in the public square and pretend that marginalized trash are actually hidden gems of knowledge only you and a select few others can see.

    Let’s have the debate.

    Let's see what it would actually mean in public policy terms. Let’s see how guys like you intend to address the problems of our time and indeed things they see as problems.

    But I don't think you will because the reason you and others believe in this is because you need a new theory of racism that allows you to separate yourselves from the blue collar stormfronters. So they come up with this high sounding “Scientific” theory.

    It has never been a case of there not being differences between the way human beings look. The trouble is in the imprecise taxonomy. How do you define a “race” and might there not be other equally valid ways of dividing humans into taxonomical groupings ?

    And - NO - It's not because we are all the same.

    There are persistent and real genetic differences that cluster within so-called racial groups, and more so than many have heretofore believed.

    Yet these differences still fall far short of indicating sub-speciation, which is the normal standard used by biologists to indicate different “races” or breeds of a larger species.

    Many scientists worked hard (REAL HARD) on finding working definition of race as a biological fact. They all failed. They all failed not because genetic differences can’t be observed between various humans (after all, if there weren’t mDNA differences, we wouldn’t know much about human maternal ancestry).

    They all failed because genetic differences do not support social races, races that divide people into (pardon my words) “black”, “white”, “yellow” and “red”.

    The only living subspecies of the species Homo sapiens is Homo sapiens sapiens. That is current scientific knowledge. And it is very likely to remain the only one, unless Sasquatch or the Yeti decide to walk into a science lab for a DNA test one day.

    There is a reason why blood transfusions and bone marrow transplants work. This is why a “black ” persons blood can save an white Irishman’s life with a transfusion and vice versa.

    Physiology is malleable, as in partially affected by the environment. Yet I will admit that physiology is affected by genes as well, but it still has nothing to do with a population/individual’s potential intelligence.

    The racial designations that we currently use are principally based on three characteristics.

    1) Facial structure
    2) Skin color
    3) Hair texture.

    Those are things that are controlled by six genes out of thirty thousand genes in the human genome and those genes have never been shown by any geneticist on the planet, any biologist on the planet, to be connected, or what geneticists call “concordant,” with any other trait known as intelligence or known as temperament or behavior or ethics or morality or any of those kinds of things.

    It’s also the reason why you’ll find African Americans in the NBA but you won’t find many West Africans, who are certainly “blacker” and according to the racist theorist, athleticism and blackness somehow run together, then you would expect West Africans to dominate the NBA and African teams to dominate international basketball competitions

    They don’t because these things are not concordant on the basis of race. They do not cluster on the basis of so-called racial categories

    Let me put it straight: nobody in the field is saying that humans don’t have physiological variation that we use as part of the definition for “race” that is often rooted in geographical regions. But race is not an absolute, like height, or weight, that can be measured or scientifically defined in humans. That’s the score, and it ain’t changing

    The one piece that continues to gnaw at me, though, is: “What does ‘IQ’ actually measure?

    Can you start a fire without matches ? Can you look at the sun and use it as a guidance map ? Can you purify water ? Can skin a wild animal and the fur as clothing ? Do you know how preserve food without a fridge ?

    No. Well there are many ppl living in rural parts of the world who can do this with their eyes closed but would more than likely not fair well on an IQ test. But they're dumb. Right ?

    Let's say you were in rural Kenya. How long do you think it would be before I came upon your pink and naked body laying in a fen of fern, gasping and shivering, eyes bulging in horror, whilst some poisonous amphibian set atop your chest awaiting your inevitable demise?

    Strip away the technology and tools and what can you really do ?

    You put a MENSA member in a certain environment where a different type of intelligence is needed they would not last a second.

    But no !! To you intelligence is fixed and if your can't figure out "If Jack is taller than Jim and Bob is smaller than Jack and Peter is smaller than Paul" (or any of them IQ type questions) then your dumb !!!!

    Conversely, people living in abject poverty in third world countries devise almost unbelievably complex ways of eking out an existence, and some modicum of dignity, in the midst of dehumanizing conditions. This requires a deep level of intelligence

    Even the most cursory googling on the subject of African genetic diversity will show you that African peoples have extremely diverse and divergent genetic makeups. They cannot possible all be guided by the same “dumb gene” or the same “violence gene,” or “fast running gene.”

    Yet you dummies treat all Sub-Saharan Africans if they are a single genetic race.

    The reason for this is because Sub-Saharan Africans have

    • Dark Skin
    • Type 4 or sometimes Type 3 hair

    It doesn’t matter if they have a variety of different features, or if groups have different average heights, have reached different levels of civilization, and self-identify as different peoples.

    NO !!!!! Blacks are all ONE race, not two, or five

    ONE !!!!!



    And why? Because in order for your mumbo jumbo to really work, it requires a genetically homogenous race of Blacks who all share roughly the same DNA.

    And how about white people ? They're certainly less genetically diverse than Blacks, but they obviously have genetic variance between say… Scandinavians and Italians or Anglo Saxons and Spaniards… but evidently, those genetic differences are somehow never linked to intelligence.

    You don't want to theorize on which group of White people are the least intelligent.

    No !! No !!

    That is only used for talking about black ppl. Who are the genetically dumber and disadvantaged Whites ? If there is enough genetic difference for whites to have different hair color, eye color and different average height, then why not intelligence ?

    The answer is because this is not science, it’s politics and to ask that question doesn't serve the political goals of racist Whites.

    You don’t want to face the idea that you might belong to the dumbest group of White people in your little hierarchy. So you theorize that “Whiteness” simply makes all Whites just as capable, and all Blacks equally disadvantaged

    And Japan is still under the system of white supremacy

    Japan lost the war and was de-militarized by the Anglo-U.S. government..

    Japan is NOT a sovereign nation, it is a COLONY of the U.S. That’s why Japan is one of the only (or the only) “super powers” that doesn’t have any nuclear weapons (and It won’t be allowed to have any).

    If you look at the nations where possession of nuclear weapons is a “problem” for the U.S. or Israel or NATO — they are always NON-WHITE nations.

    And that’s why Japan cannot force the U.S. to remove its military bases even though it has begged and pleaded many times over the years to ASK (not tell) the U.S. to remove them and the U.S. has the power to refuse to do it.

    Japan can’t build anything (even a convenience store) in the U.S. without permission from our government so how can we build, even expand a military presence in Japan without their permission?

    Because Japan is not just a U.S. colony it is a non-white nation under the system of white supremacy.

    The proof that this is a specious and deceptive method of practicing white supremacy is white people DO NOT treat Asians like they’re superior to whites.

    1. Asians are still “yellow people,” and “Chinks” and “people of color.”

    2. Asian couples are NEVER portrayed as the most socially desirable couples in white movies and TV shows. In fact, they don’t even exist.

    3. Asian women are seldom if ever lifted above the white female in movies and televisions as the most beautiful or desirable women (I’ve NEVER seen this happen)

    4. Many allegedly “Asian” nations are still colonized by European nations, like South Korea, Japan, the Philippines, Vietnam, etc.

    5. Asians were horribly stereotyped in Hollywood films of the past. Now, they practically invisible.

    6. There are still many private white clubs and golf courses where Asians are not allowed to join or play on.

    7. the fact that this “argument” exists is a stereotype, and in a white supremacy system, that means the targets are never equals to whites

    8. White people still elevate other white people above all Asians when it comes to the best paying jobs and positions of power and political offices. If whites believed Asians were superior, they would put them in charge of everything.

    9. That fact that this stereotype even exists while at the same time white people are allowed to be just people without stereotypes (aka ‘human’) is proof enough.

    Yes, there are cultural differences between Asians and other groups. So what? At the end of the day we are ALL still held hostage by the global system of white supremacy.

    When it comes to blacks and Asians — to compare a people whose identity and nation and culture have been intact for over a THOUSAND YEARS and is still INTACT with a people who were enslaved for 500 YEARS and in the process were ROBBED of their identity, culture, nation, land, religion, and ability to govern their own lives under their own national banner, flag, and land is just plain STUPID.

    Especially when those same (black) people are still under attack by white supremacists who seem to devote the majority of their time and energies to making sure black people stay inferior via inferior living environments, education, healthcare, food quality, water quality, endless promotion of destructive programming and stereotyping via the white mainstream media (TV and films and music they control), deliberate drug infestations,m police terror tactics, and excessive and unjust incarcerations,

    Bottom line, the “Asian argument” was created for blacks, not for other white people.

The White people were wrong to do that, but so were the black Chiefs. At the end of the day though slavery was abolished a very long time ago and nobody thinks it was a good thing. Morals and times were different. We used to burn Protestants alive and publicly hang people. Times do change.
    Africans were not selling “their own”, they were selling their enemies, just as the Greeks and Romans once did. Africa, then as now. They were no more selling “their own” than, say, “Europeans” were killing “their own” during the Holocaust.

    The central impact of the African Transatlantic Slave trade you nonchalantly brush aside is the LEGACY. And it’s that legacy that connects us and everyone else posting in this forum today and will continue until the day it’s resolved or addressed.

    You cannot (and here is the challenge if you are up for it) point to any other form of slavery (present, past or pre-historic) that has had such an immense and global impact on this planet than the African Holocaust

    The outcome of that operation is the crucial factor which in terms of scale and magnitude has gone unsurpassed and has had a profound effect on millions worldwide. Not just because of slavery, that was just the starting point. But because white supremacy would not allow themselves to see blacks as humans and it carried on long after the slave trade was abolished.

Life could be awful for anybody in those days.
    As I said before - What you leave out is that the Irish got to where they are because of racism.

    The Irish did not suffer from hundreds of years of slavery - Because they were White.
    The Irish could vote by the 1860s, not the 1960s – Because they were White.
    The Irish qualified for the Homestead Act, the G.I. Bill and FHA loans – Because they were White.
    The Irish could live in nice neighbourhoods and go to nice schools – Because they were White.

    Irish indentured servants already received two forms of reparations. One was Freedom Dues (money & land). And the second, was all the tangible benefits that came with the first Affirmative Action program called white supremacy

    Not everyone in the US saw them as fully White. But by the late 1800s, Whiteness in the US had been enlarged to include them and when the Irish first came to the USA in large numbers (in the 1800's) they had had almost no experience with blacks.

    But after a short time in the states the Irish were rioting against blacks (as with the New York draft riots during the Civil War) and joining in the barring of blacks from labor unions, opposing school desegregation, and seeking to become white by assimilating to the white WASP system that was firmly in place.

    The Irish joined the club of whiteness to the max.

    Yes the Irish suffered and many never owned slaves. But whatever stereotypes they may have had then does not impact you now.

    If and Irish person fills out a job application TODAY : No one cares if they are Irish.

    No one follows them around in the store.
    No one assumes they're are lazy.
    No one assumes they're child-like and can’t take care of themselves.
    No one assumes they're criminal.
    No one tells them they are so much better off in America so they should be glad your ancestors were slaves.
    No one acts like they did them a favor or saved them from a backwardness.
    No one displays their human reminds as primitive until the late 70s.
    They don't have to radically change/permanently alter a feature of your body to become accepted or get employment (like hair for example).

    They're just another white person.

    The same cannot be said for a black person. And how does this relates to slavery ?

    The stereotypes were created during slavery as an excuse for enslaving blacks (we are childlike and need guidance, can’t take of ourselves need white help/masters, black women are sex-hungry, baby making machines to explain all the mixed children running around).

    Or they were created after slavery to keep whites at the top and blacks at the bottom.

    These stereotypes of blacks are to this day are still widely held and even defended by white folks and a few misguided blacks.

    None of them are new. They are very old and they are based in slavery and it’s immediate aftermath.

    First off - You assume that blacks always speak their minds to white people.

    MOST DON'T

    If she spoke her mind to you; a white supremacist about racism ? How would have that went down ? You would have ran your ass to your white landlord "You know that's Tiana is really hostile. She's really aggressive and saying some crazy things" and you would have got her kicked out the dorm.

    And she knew that.

    That's why black people have to often engage in this tackiness when they're around white.

    Even outside of work most whites are so closed-minded about race and get upset about it so easily that it becomes a waste of breath. They have too many built-in defences. They make it a no-win. Even online it is largely a wasted effort (but not completely).

    In these ways and others whites shut themselves off from any serious, honest talk about race with blacks. Then, partly from this engineered silence, they conclude that racism is no big deal.

    How do you kn ow ?

    She achieved IN SPITE of the system not because of it.

    Yes because black people have to make white ppl feel comfortable. The penalties for talking are severe.

    Even me on Saddo. I've been a member here for 13 years. For pretty much the first ten years I didn't say anything other than speak on boxing because I knew what I say would not go down well. When whites do come across blacks who have talk openly and honestly about racism, such as activists, writers and bloggers, they dismiss them as radical, hostile, ungrateful, white-hating and so on.

    Most whites have no first-hand experience that would make them seem reasonable.

    Madame C.J. Walker had become one of the very first African American millionaires in 1911. A year in which sixty-three black folks had been lynched in this country (more than one a week), and at a time when obviously all would agree overt racial oppression of African Americans was the norm.

    Of course it’s true that some black folks have done extraordinarily well in this society. No one ever suggested the impossibility of such a thing. But she achieved in spite of the system, not because of it.

    That's what KILL white supremacist like you.

    White supremacists, I’m starting to realize, don’t really believe what they’re saying (not deep down) You look around and see that light skin is a recessive trait. You see the economies of the white west faltering, slowly (or perhaps not so slowly), being challenged by that of China. You see black people excelling in any arena where we are given full and equal opportunity (not enough arenas, to be sure, but still) you see a world in which global white supremacy is everywhere being challenged. In which the white world’s militaries are incapable of subduing a rag-tag bunch of insurgents, with darker skin.

    Calm down. The BBC is still very white at the top. Happy now ?

    Plus I'm pretty sure you know that white men with a criminal record are more likely to get a a job than a black man without one.

    I'm pretty sure you know this

    Happy now ?

    No one deserves reparations more than black Americans. Black Americans who built the wealth of the USA.

    Slavery was sanctioned by the federal government, and all those UNDER the government profited from free Black labor. So the same government & its subjects owe Black people for the free labor that accumulated ALL the wealth today. Your ancestors PROFITED for their "sins". And the PROFITS for those sins were passed down generationally to YOU. And those profits have been racially locked into the dominant society AWAY from the descendants of slaves

    In order to justify American slavery, a culture of vile anti-Black racism was created and placed into ALL AREAS of activity. That systematic culture has been passed down TODAY and it has magnified into genocidal proportions at this point

    Black children are tracked into basic and remedial level classes while white kids are tracked into advanced and honors classes (whether or not they show promise and even sometimes quite a bit less)

    Why are predominantly Black school districts are under-funded ?
    Why are predominantly Black school districts under-staffed with inexperienced teachers ?
    Why are predominantly Black school districts denied books ?
    Why are predominantly Black school districts denied microscopes and other lab equipment ?
    Why are predominantly Black school districts always have hazardous waste near by black schools ?
    Why are predominantly Black school districts always have to cut art and music classes, sports teams and sometimes hot meals in a cafeteria ?

    "From what you hear" And that's the thing you don't know anything

    Denilson, you must excuse our friend Gandalf.

    He, as opposed to the rest of us, still gives a shit about whatever you have to say.

    Fk you talking about ?

    I think about the Asian women working twelve hours a day in sweatshops to make clothes for people you; They ain't Doctors and teachers. I think about the Asian families whose members have to put in eighty hours a week just to keep their heads above water; They ain't Doctors and teachers.

    If you look at ethnic Koreans in Japan and the Burakumin there you'll find the same kind of consistent under performance relative to the dominant Japanese in terms of education and employment status. Both are targets of discrimination and treated like sh*t and although they are culturally and genetically indistinguishable from other Koreans or Japanese, they are consistently found at the bottom of Japanese society, and do worse than others in Japan and Korea.

    This kinda debunks your notion of pan-Asian cultural superiority, it also suggests that a group’s caste status influences group outcomes: much as with blacks in the U.S., whose position has been similar to the Burakumin and ethnic Koreans in Japan.

    Even when you look at so called Asians success this doesn’t translate into greater financial success nor job security.

    This is evident in the Ivy League’s admissions.

    They reject Asian applicants with higher GPAs and SATs than white students because they do not want more than 15% of the student body to be Asian. They apply these stereotypes because they do not want a c.h.i.n.k.s and g.o.oks making big bucks on Wall Street. They want a white boy to make big bucks on Wall Street, because of course, only white men are suitable for any big job. Right ?

    Even the over 100 Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) dedicated to the advancement of education for blacks. However of course white supremacy affects them due to allocation of funding and resources that generally favor historically white universities like the Ivy League.

    Not to mention that African Americans tend to be in the poorest areas of America were resources, teachers and local area are usually substandard. But then whites supremacists say blacks are stupid. Well why go to such efforts to fk shit up ? I mean were just gonna mess up everything. Right ?

    White social domination makes sure white schools out compete with black schools.

Since they are genetically different than their parents. So albinos are a race of beings who are born of different race ?



    So this black couple who gave birth to a white child are a different species ?

    There is no clear, objective way to divide living humans into races that is based on biology. Are there three races? Six? Seven? How do you tell? And where do you draw the lines between them? And why ?

    Race is skin deep, at best any two humans are 99.9% genetically the same, according to the Human Genome Project. And even that 0.1% is mostly made up of individual differences. Only 6.3% of that 0.1% comes from differences between races.

    And I’m not into all this “We are the same”

    But many scientists worked really hard on finding working definition of race as a biological fact. They all failed. They all failed not because genetic differences can’t be observed between various humans (after all, if there weren’t mDNA differences, we wouldn’t know much about human maternal ancestry).

    They all failed because genetic differences do not support social races, races that divide people into (pardon my words) “black”, “white”, “yellow” and “red”.

    Races have pretty much the same set of genes, just in different frequencies. And even those frequencies do not always fall along the lines of race. Skin colour changes as you go north to south. The frequency of blood type B changes as you go east to west

    If only the death cult following Denilson had a job, his voice may have more pull for his pathetic ethnic gripes.
    Life is good for all of us and we all have our places in society .
    Some people are jealous of others because they are worthless vermin.
    Remember reality is an illusion caused by a lack of alcohol .
