Mainly because it was to troll the other Topic I made concerning New Mod. He can't answer my question because he's a moron. He knows nothing but to troll, abuse and stalk members. He belongs to the race of Homo-moronicases.

"Race" as you use the term is a social construct. According to Genetic Research all "races" are basically identical, they do not differ and can interbreed quite happily. "Race" was a 19th century differentiation based on external conditions created by differing adaptions to environments that needed differing means for humans to survive. Dark skin? Live in the tropics. White skin? Live near the poles. You lot over-emphasize these factors and others because it allows you to slight people. Tsk, tsk, tsk... Roll Eyes

Deakin University offers up to 15 bonus entry points for students who identify as Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander.

So what IS Aboriginality then, if not a racial distinction? What were the Freedom Rides about if not race?

What is Black Lives Matter if not a race-based protest? What was apartheid, and the fight against it, about if not race? What was the Voice about if not race?

Nearly all occurred before the Human Genome Project, Soren. The Human Genome project was the first attempt to map human DNA. Before it occurring, all "Racial" classifications were based on your usual airy-fairy bullshit concerning the superficial differences between humans. It was essentially a social construct. Just like your superficial Racism. Tsk, tsk, tsk... Roll Eyes

To say that something is a "social construct" is beyond banal. Art, science, language, literature, psychology, philosophy, history, geography, anthropology, etc, etc - all social constructs.

To say that any discernment of similarities and differences between humans, their valuation and ranking, is a social construct is not saying anything apart from stating the most obvious. There are differences and we all see and recognise them.

We recognise intelligence and firmness, kindness and viciousness, refinement and coarseness, even though none of these have any DNA marker.

You can readily tell a black African from a Japanese. The difference is real and instantly recognised.

The Human Genome Project has shown that the human genome is >99% the same. Not enough variation to have different races.

That won’t stop the poisonous bigotry here, of course.

Humans share 99% of their DNA with monkeys.

Interesting that white people have about 4% monkey DNA but Black people have 0% monkey DNA.

The percentage of Neanderthal DNA in modern humans is zero or close to zero in people from African populations, and is about 1 to 2 percent in people of European or Asian background.23 June 2022
What does it mean to have Neanderthal or Denisovan DNA?

https://medlineplus.gov/genetics/understanding/dtcgenetictesting/neanderthaldna

Chimps & Bonobos:
Quote:

If human and chimp DNA is 98.8 percent the same, why are we so different? Numbers tell part of the story. Each human cell contains roughly three billion base pairs, or bits of information. Just 1.2 percent of that equals about 35 million differences. Some of these have a big impact, others don't. And even two identical stretches of DNA can work differently--they can be "turned on" in different amounts, in different places or at different times.

https://www.amnh.org/exhibitions/permanent/human-origins/understanding-our-past/...

So there are no human races, nothing deep enough to qualify as race unless you want to consider chimps and bonobos as a race of H. sapiens.

"Racism" is based upon the idea that because a person has a darker skin than another human being they are inherently less intelligent automatically. Such an idea fails to take into account the story that DNA tells us that essentially all humans are the same. You refuse to acknowledge the science that backs the Human Genome project because it disagrees with your socially constructed vision that because a person looks different to you, they are inherently different. The reality is that a black person is as intelligent as you, as well developed as you and able to interbreed with you. Tsk, tsk, tsk... Roll Eyes
