I am not alone, ask any Geneticist, Bias.  You are the one who believes that "Races" are anything other than a social construct.  Run along, back to your rock, you really are a fool.  You don't understand what is being discussed here.  There are no major differences Genetically between the various "races", they can all interbreed.  There is only one "race", the human one.  Tsk, tsk, tsk...  Roll Eyes Roll Eyes

Totally irrelevant.

Social constructs are more significant than genetics. Interpersonal relationships are not based on DNA matching. Beauty, attractiveness, ugliness, cowardice, laziness, honourableness, dishonesty, etc, etc have zero genetic markers but are very signfificant and the ability to perceive them is in every human being. Similarly, racial or ethnic traits are readily perceived by everyone and rough and ready conscusions are drawn from them, as from the perception of other socially constructed aspects of the human world.

You are banging on about an irrelevancy, cockwomble. Kinda sums you up.

"white skinned" doesnt necessarily imply ancestry

Yes, that's what I said. You're proof that anal sex fiddles with the mind.

'White' in the US is a term that has morphed into a term to indicate socio-economic status, social privilege, political alignment, and/or patriotism.

However, most Americans and those in the Anglosphere still presume it refers to 'race' and in Australia, it is used to refer to nothing but 'race'.

'Hispanic' is a term that means different things to Americans depending on their geolocation.



I don't think 'white' in America - or anywhere else - refers to socio economic status or political alignment or patriotism.
In any case, even if it did, this would make sense ONLY as a distiction from off-white demographics. But to say that whites are richer, more patriotic and of a particular political alignment is preposterous.

A highly educated, affluent, polite and cosmopolitan black man doesn't become 'white' on account of his civilisational acheievements. When he attains that level of civilisation his race as a black man will not disappear but it will hardly matter, scientifically or otherwise.



Geez, this is a politics forum and you don't think 'white' refers to affluence, privilege, political alignment or patriotism?

Where does the current disparaging epithet 'some old white guy' come from? What could it mean, you wonder.

In terms of patriotism, in the US the southwestern states were once part of Mexico, so owning your Hispanic roots has connotations of not being patriotic to the US.

'His race as a black man', eh! What a tosser you are.

Not only could our ancestors interbreed, but they did and whenever they got the chance - being driven by the instinct towards genetic diversity.

How else can modern European sapiens possibly carry a percentage of Neanderthal DNA?

You'd better write a letter to the The United States Census Bureau then, and put them right

BTW You are still carrying on with your depravity and insults tsk tsk ... Do you understand now that you don't practice what you preach?

The great divide comparison is coming more and more into focus....


How many of the homeless in America, Australia, Britain are "some old white guys"?

I don't  think, nor do you, that Kanye West or Kamala Harris are white even though they are far more affluent than me or most white people anywhere. The former supported Trump, the latter Biden.

As for patriotism, you are talking nonsense (again),  as if the 19th century was a reliable guide to the 21st.  Louisiana was French once, Alaska Russian. Does that mean heir inhabitants today, 200 years on,  are tainted with being less patriotic?

You have a little learning but you really don't know what to do with it, other than regurgitate it randomly.

Your inner bitchy fag is at high noon.

Get out of the toilet block and google the issue with identifying as Hispanic in the southwestern states of the US and most parts of the south.

Unbelievable you haven't heard of the 'white guy' negative epithet referring to 'unearned' privilege and affluence and used ad nauseam by 'the woke' and many non-Anglo groups particularly in the US, but also in the UK and Canada.

When you applaud Aboriginals, what are you recognising and applauding, cockwomble?

What IS the Aboriginality that you recognise as different to you or me if not ancestry, ie racial identity passed on genetically.  If there is no such thing as race, what IS aboriginality, wgphat is Africanness, what is a Jew, an Arab, a Chinese, a Japanese, Maori, Indian, Papuan or Eskimo??

All the same? No diff?  Of course there is diff. It is obvious to everyone.  Everybody recognises racial differences. They are obvious and evident. Only an idiot like you would pretend not to see them.

The second thing is - if they are different, as evidently they are, what is the rank order, the hierarchy?
