Human races clearly fulfill the definition of a sub species classification. People who say otherwise are either liars or morons.



You don't get to determine what a science says.

Except in your fantasy life...

"In a landmark paper based on the Human Genome Project, scientists showed that there are no “races” but a single human race—not in sociological terms, but according to biology.

The project found that there is more genetic variation within a single population subgroup than between two different population subgroups. For example, there may be more genetic diversity within a population in Asia than between that same population and a different population in Europe."

One constant theme of contemporary political life is that the Right is constantly making sh*t up.

It's stupid.

@late What is with Haplotypes:



You are still trying to rewrite science.

It's a constant. If geniuses like you aren't trying to rewrite climate science, it's biology, or law, etc.

One of the few great moments of tv was when Kellyanne Conway was peddling her BS, and the news guy said "Alt-Right is lying".

You're lying.

Become a biologist, convince the other biologists, and then you won't be the butt of bad jokes.

@late I do not believe in supermacy but there is a large minority of biologist who believe in existence of races... Haplotypes prove the existence of races, with a DNA test you can prove someones ethnicity.

But most biologist say the genetic differences between humans are too small to call it race.



Scientists determine what a science says, and they say there are no races.

Haplotypes are just a genealogical marker, they are not really related to race per se. The most known ones are those from the Y-chromosome (for paternal ancestry) and mitochondrial DNA (for maternal ancestry) but you could find others by using statistical analysis. These haplotypes usually do not really code anything, they're just part of our junk DNA.

@late is correct, race does not exist from a purely biological point of view. Little variability in our DNA is determined by our race, and even our continent of origin. Less than, for instance, that determined by breed in animals like dogs.

Doubly so when you consider the entire exercise is an excuse that allows them to describe some people as inferior.
