@alex so are Persian considered white? Not Semitic right?
@alex I was thinking more scientists thoughts. I don't believe in white nationalists.
@alex that is an easy web search but I was always taught there were only 3 not sure if that still stands though.
@alex @Absinthe There are some aspects of race that are reflections of environmental adaption, like an African Native is more suited to Africa than Inuit would be. That said, we are all still members of the same species; an Inuit and African would still be able to have a child together just as two Africans or two Inuit could. So there is an aspect of race that is socially constructed, like we are over emphasizing the real natural aspects of race which are far less pronounced on average. We're all people and have the same inalienable rights.
@featherFag @alex certainly there are some genetic differences, on the cop shows when they find blood at a crime scene they seem to know race and sex. Or is that just tv magic?
@featherFag @alex if race is, in fact, not unlike dog breeds, then it is unhealthy which is why we see specialized diseases in cultures where outbreeding is somewhat taboo like royalty, certain groups that have emigrated to other countries but refused to integrate with the current indigenous population as well as other cousin kcuffing anti-misogenarion advocates. I would think there would be natural attraction to those who look a bit different from yourself. Just a thought.
@Absinthe @alex Dog breeds have issues because the way they are bred is a practice of eugenics. Letting people reproduce freely without trying to force certain traits prevents this. If we started "breeding" humans for traits like IQ or something else you can be assured we would see some fucked up deformations much like the inbred royalty like you mention.
@featherFag @alex but inbreeding happens. In royalty it happens because people are attempting to maintain lineage to G-d because they believe their power supposedly comes from this. Such arguments for "purity of the races" would result in this as well. "Stick with your own kind" is encouragement for inbreeding. Intentional or otherwise.
@Absinthe @alex there is really no good reason to persue racial purity. Look at the average white American and more likely than not they have more than one ancestor that is not white. The idea of racial purity is bunk simply on the basis that nobody is racially PURE nor is that desireable genetically.

@alex
Its technically possible, that is how 23andme works after all.
