"Edward's critique which is shown in this image has never been taken seriously in the anthropological or scientific communities because it fails to understand that vague clustering (and a clade is a far more accurate depiction of race) of genetic traits does not lend any biological credibility to racial categories.
So it cannot be said that race exists among humans."
I would ask him if, by definition, one would classify niggers as a different subspecies from blonde haired blue eyed Europeans or from Japanese people. Scientifically they are different sub-species. If they don't want to use the word "race" then we can always use different terms.

Aren't race-bait activists even worse? >tfw there's no biological race, but there's is a social one based upon the way you look (but somehow disconnected from genetics) Check your privilege bullshit
James Foster
They think it’s genes that cause the differences, just not cade genes.
Ayden Foster
>a category is not a group
nigga what
Nathaniel Allen
m8, we're at the point where we found 1000+ genes for intelligence, and surprise, hundreds are missing among Africans, and the rest are just more uncommon than among Eurasians
genetics are burying egalitarianism and you're talking about anthropology, lmao
So you can't make a clade tree out of the human races?
Brody Allen
You can but only when a sufficient number of each race have a diffierent clade node
Samuel Collins
And that never happens for literally any of the animals that we consider to have subspecies, of course
Blake Robinson
>So it cannot be said that race exists among humans."
Then neither do subspecies or breeds. Both of which have more, or even less in some cases, differences between them than the races do.

>anthropological literally irrelevant >scientific communities They always say this vague shit because they don't know anything about the "scientific community" they're talking about >vague clustering There is nothing vague about it and the reason 7 clusters are used in programs like STRUCTURE is because that's what's actually stable funny enough. >a clade is a far more accurate depiction of race this isn't even an argument in their favor, it has no relation to Fst but divergence. >genetic traits does not lend any biological credibility to racial categories. I'm not saying the visible phenotype is all there is to racial differences, but phenotypic variation itself is a manifestation of allele differentiation.
It's a very shit tier and not even an argument. Ask them why they don't think biological inequality can exist if humans don't meet any of the 5 stipulations for population equilibrium that was laid out by Hardy and Weinberg?
The odds of a European having none of them is 0% The odds of an African having none of them is 53%
Polygenic analysis is going to bury egalitarianism, but have fun with your semantics m8, just be consistent and make sure you apply the same standards to animals.

>"all traits influenced by genetics are expected to differ across populations" t. David Reich, lead geneticist at Harvard
It's common fucking sense, inexcusable if you have any background at all in Biology, and increasing impossible to deny as evidenced by this kike coming out recently and writing shit like this in the NYT.
Henry Nguyen
>there’s no clade difference that literally doesn't mean anything. It's the equivalent to saying there can't be any difference in people because we're all humans. There can't be any genetic difference in dogs because they all belong to the same clade, etc. It's fucking retarded and not even an argument.
Benjamin Howard
It's game over. They published a database of 1000+ genes that increase and decrease intelligence literally 2 months ago.
They don't just vary. They vary wildly between races. See: for some examples.
They make no mention of race, which means they didn't find anything flattering and just decided to omit it to avoid controversy
But you can easily find the frequency of all the genes elsewhere (ncbi.nlm.nih.gov) and have a laugh at how evident it is until someone actually puts the two databases together and publishes it
It will cause a major uproar soon enough
Jack Rogers
Can you link me to an article that shows the specific genes linked with intelligence being more or less prevalent among africans / Europeans?
Justin Myers
the condition that nu-science has set for race existing is the raw genetic distance (also called Fst) between clusters of "race", in animals other than humans there is a certain standard of genetic distance below which scientists won't consider species to be different, humans are one of these species
the problem with this reasoning is that raw genetical distance isn't appropriate especially for humans, if we edited the genes of a human (or any species) we could reach a much higher Fst before there are any noticeable phenotypical or behavioral changes, likewise by targeting specific genes that have an important impact on the end "result" you could end up with massively different specimens that have an almost nil Fst difference
dog breeds are a great example of that, there isn't enough Fst between them to call them different "races", yet nobody would argue that dog breeds are just a social construct
thanks, I didn't see this one in particular but caught the Plomin one 4 or 5 months ago. They're all starting to release this shit, I can't wait until 23andme starts telling people their expected IQ range.
John Lewis
Where do Africans fit into your pic
Robert Phillips
I would argue that orangutans deserve equal rights to humans because they genetically quite similar to us and are capable of many different emotions. Therefore obviously Africans deserve equal rights too since they are even closer to us than orangutans
Luis Thomas
to caveat, enough heterozygosity exists in humans to arguably denote speciation.
African immigration into Europe needs to be halted before the damage is irreparable though. I don't think anyone is arguing for genocide just because some populations have lower IQ. But it certainly needs to have an impact on immigration policy.
Isaiah Young
It's almost like interbreeding isolated populations share genetic material...woah
Morphic field resonance causes race to exist to the degree that we have developed separate group consciousnesses with differing collective unconsciousness and self-image.
Brandon Sanchez
there's a zoomed out version of this PC1 PC2 that has all the groups, i used to have it saved but i don't know where i put it, would appreciate if someone posted it
Ryan Myers
Are you an abbo that bought into the Jow Forums is dumb meme and thought you'd come here to teach the dumb racists a thing or two?
Hey Rupert Sheldrake, shouldn't you be in Britain?
Blake White
t. asian subhuman
John Rodriguez
I doubt Sheldrake will ever devote effort to expanding on the racialist implications of morphic field theory because he's already in hot enough water just fighting the academic cartel on the basic points of his research.
Might as well throw materialism away already. Morphic field theory is just one last ditch attempt to save it from empirical failure.
Robert Fisher
chimpanzees are 98% the same as whites. mice are 80% the same as whites. bananas are 55% the same as whites.
turns out small genetic differences matter a lot.
Tyler Davis
Between Radin and Sheldrake, materialism is done for.
Aiden Morales
Would you call me left wing or centre?
Ryder Reyes
nah that's not it it's amazingly complex and it has dozens of symbols for each group within the clusters, the end result is kind of like pic related but with way more detail
>What do you do? Shoot myself in the arm and win the argument
James Sullivan
All asians are not created equally. Japanese people are better than chinese. All Europeans are created equally though.
Lucas Miller
>What do you do? I say, "If there is more diversity within my race, and diversity is the goal, then I should stay within my own race to achieve maximum diversity. Now gtfo you stupid shitlib nigger before you taint all this glorious diversity."
>there is more variation among the same race than between races Explain FST then. >vague clustering of genetic traits does not lend any biological credibility to racial categories. So it cannot be said that race exists among humans. False, pic related. In the field of evolutionary biology, there can exist numerous races of animals (also called “subspecies” or “ecotypes”) that are morphologically distinguishable populations living in allopatry (i.e. are geographically separated). There is no firm criterion on how much morphological difference it takes to delimit a race. Races of mice, for example, are described solely on the basis of difference in coat color, which could involve only one or two genes. Far more diversity exists between subspecies of humans.
