There is not a valid reason against it, and in fact most races have a preference for themselves over others. We were never meant to co-exist, which is why we will always have racial issues no matter how many policies you put in place.

They really weren't multiethnic in the way modern people would like to imagine, one culture or race was always more dominant, and people still segregated themselves in districts to be with their own.

Isn't racism essentially just threat-assessment? It's another tool in our survival mechanism, because we're obviously made to prefer familiarity rather than the unknown.

For example, you have two kinds of racists. The violent one, and the nonviolent, peaceful one.
The first will harm another human being in some way, the other will, at best, only say something that's perceived as hurtful.

The first instance is a lot more objectively indefensible than the second. Now, if both men are racist, why did only 1 bring harm to another? So obviously there are factors outside of racism that motivate us to harm others, such as anger, rage, psychosis, delusion.

Yet we aren't waging a political on any of those, are we?

You are right to think we are all humans, even tho we are not the same in terms of your qualities (self control, Intellect, strenght, speed)

But one thing we all share in common is the desire to be with others of our own culture, race or tribe. I know for a fact blacks are as racist as whites are, so are Asians, Indians..

What does this mean? So, if you have a friend from another race you secretly wish he would go away?

If you, yourself, can personally connect with a person from a different race, despite the color of his skin, despite the food he likes, despite the socio-cultural memes he grew up with, because you think he's a really cool dude, what makes you think racism is unbeatable?

I have had more negative experiences with blacks than with whites. The crime data available points towards blacks being more likely to commit violent crimes. This aligns with my anecdotal observations. Whether these factors are due to race or to poverty, why would I not display an avoidance toward black people? The reasons for their behavior are irrelevant; as a rational being of self preservation, I would prefer to be around them least of all racial groups. From my point of view, this racism is far more logical and defensible than its lack.

That's basically what the other Anon said earlier, on the microlevel you can absolutely be friends with other races, but on a large scale (countries) it is not possible, because at the end of the day a country is like a living organism composed by the individual cells, of which their culture/race will result in one final expression. So conflict for whom will be the dominant culture/race will always be there, because the goal of any living organism is to spread, and dominate its environment.

You can have Muslims, and Christians in one country, but there's always be an inner conflict for domination of every individual in said society, even if its masked away by politics, fake smiles and meaningless symbolism.

>research establishes that the emergence, prevalence, recurrence, and severity of intrastate conflicts in the modern era reflect the long shadow of prehistory. Exploiting variations across national populations, it demonstrates that genetic diversity, as determined predominantly during the exodus of humans from Africa tens of thousands of years ago, has contributed significantly to the frequency, incidence, and onset of both overall and ethnic civil conflict over the last half-century, accounting for a large set of geographical and institutional correlates of conflict, as well as measures of economic development. Furthermore, the analysis establishes the significant contribution of genetic diversity to the intensity of social unrest and to the incidence of intragroup factional conflict. These findings arguably reflect the contribution of genetic diversity to the degree of fractionalization and polarization across ethnic, linguistic, and religious groups in the national population; the adverse influence of genetic diversity on interpersonal trust and cooperation; the contribution of genetic diversity to divergence in preferences for public goods and redistributive policies; and the potential impact of genetic diversity on economic inequality within a society.

That's a good argument for interracial eugenic program: turn the whole world into one single giant ethnicity and you'll get global cooperation.
Furthermore, that blurb you've quoted (assuming that it is factually true) doesn't tell us anything about racial hierarchies, which is one of the main claims of racist ideologues. Even if you reject the interracial eugenics option, at best it claims that isolationism leads to more stable societies: what it doesn't claim is that, for example, blwck people are truly inferior to white people.

IQ measures geometric reasoning, but in no way does it predict the outcome of a persons life, and the moral choices theyll make. It correlates with a lot of things like general success but in no way is it causal.

While its worth exploring IQ science further its clearly hijacked by people who reduce all human function to a grand iq narrative, which just stems from wanting a racist system that benefits them economically.
