I was wondering.

1- Man is just a highly evolved/ developed species of mammal(?)

2- Other species of mammal have different races that can interbreed (same species/ different race)?

3- e.g dachsund, terrier, rottweiller, etc; all types of the "dog" species, just different races?

4- Can we then assume that all races of the "dog" species have the same level of intelligence, utility, inherrent worth- given that all races of the human species (black/ white/ asian/ aboriginal, etc) have the same level of intelligence, utility, inherrent worth?

>> No.2437066

no, dogs have more pronounced biological differences than humans

>> No.2437069

You could postulate it, and it has been, but science hasn't borne it out.

>> No.2437076

>>2437066
But they still have some differences, right? Both species I mean- biological diversity amongst the races?

So it's just a matter of degree of difference? That the different inherrent levels of intelligence, etc, between dog races are just more pronounced than those in the human species?

But I still don't understand- different races of human all have the same intelligence, abilities, aptitudes, etc... We are all them same in the sense of worth and value. So why isn't this the case between different races of other animal species (or is it)?

>> No.2437085

>>2437076
the analogy between breeds of dogs and races of humans is highly flawed. Humans generally exist on a continuum, sure there are clear differences between east asia, the heart of africa and northern europe, but they aren't fully seperate. There's no line but what we draw, whereas breeds of dogs have been bred selective to conform to a standard, inbred, and clearly delineated. The races of humans don't have clear lines, they bleed into one another as proximity dictates.

>>2437092
You have failed to understand the basic difference, we cannot speak to difference between races because the edges are too blurred. Even what would be the most straight forward, "black people have black skin", is so inexact as to be meaningless. There's no RGB color code or Pantone color or whatever that we can point to sand say, here is the delimiter. Its an imprecise so we make judgements of race based on more things facial structure, national origin, hair, etc etc, which works on a case by case basis essentially to try and describe properties of population of a race however we wind up getting lost in the margins.

We can speak to differences amongst dog breeds because we defined the breed against a standard. There is a kennel club standard defining what each is, and everything else is just a mutt.

>> No.2437126

>>2437111
But those things you list, that delimit human races... Surely they stem from a bilogical/ genetic source?

So there are (minor) bilogical/ genetic differences between theoretical acrhetypes of all human races? Even though there is significant crossover between the races and deeply blurred edges... There is still such a thing as a "black" man, an "asian" man, an "aboriginal" man and the differences between them are purely biological/ genetic (assuming identical upbringing, etc).

It's not that "all races have the same..." it's that you're just as likely to find those characteristics in any "ethnicity" of humans.

You could maybe produce some of those characteristics in people, but it would probably take a thousand generations of highly selective breeding just to isolate the gene groups, and who knows what the phenotypic associations would be?

>> No.2437156

Yes, there are physiological differences between the human races, like it or not - though they are relatively small compared to other animals, but they are definitely noticable when it comes to for example high level sports, intellectual challanges, etc.

Of course these things are biologically based, but its not like there's a little switch in the DNA, some single gene for "black man". That's the whole point, you can't go to any specific sets of genes and say these are the genes that make you racially asian or not, because there is sufficient diversity within the race and at the edges of the race that wherever you draw the line will be wholly arbitrary. Its not a matter of degree at all. The two concepts are different.

all humans, like all dogs, have just the one race. There wasn't enough geographic isolation in their evolutionary history to produce anything but localized phenotypic clusters, and those are pretty transient. Probably a lot of sexual selection in the evolutionary history of both, though that's problematic with canine breeding style.

I just told you there are differences between the races, and if you read some of the studies, blacks are sure as hell not on the top when it comes to cognitive abilities, nor are the whites.

What's interesting is how Africa is split in half, whereas one of the halves have muscle fiber and fat distrubtions aimed for long distance running, and physiological aspects inferior to their other african half when it comes to jumping and intensive intervals. You can see the clear distribution of ethnicity on the olympics statistics.
Kenya also has a fucking horrible soccer team, even though it's their national sport - and no, it's not caused by their seemingly lack of money.

Whites on the other hand, dominate strongman-competitions, and swimming, which one can argue that is caused by their thicker, and larger bones, and different fat, joints and muscle distribution compared to blacks.

Well by inherrent worth, what I mean is admittedly abstract.

Supose you could (and I know you cant but it doesnt matter), apply a numeric value to the fundamental qualities and abilities of every man.

E.g. an intelligent man gets 80 for intelligence, a short man gets 50 for height, etc etc etc down to the smallest minutiae.

I know this is impossible but it doesn't matter. It's the comparison that counts, not the absolute values.

So suppose you could do this and then you averaged and grouped it by race.

Actually, OP is well to the left but what you say strikes directly the point I was hoping to make.

I don't actually discriminate myself but it seems to me that society as a whole has been frightened into pretending to believe that not only is discrimination wrong (which I believe to be true) but that there is no basis for discrimination at all, which is clearly not the case at all.

That's what I object to, the force-feeding of untruths to achieve a political purpose (for example, kill all the jews).

And even though I don't discriminate, I do actively dislike those black people who surround me because they are loud and boorish and unintelligent.

I've no doubt the black scientis chap is brighter and better than me, good luck to him. But he has overcome the (possibly minute) inherrent racial disadvantage to get there.

And I don't swallow this false distinction between "black men" and "niggers" because if there's one thing you can say about niggers- and I think I can speak with some authority, being as I am surrounded by them- it is that they are ALL black.

He's right, by the way. I got into this argument yesterday and I study chemistry, but I've had to study biochemistry and I know a little about how genetics works, and I've read numerous articles and watched some videos on the subject.
Race as a genetic term is a misnomer. The genetics that determine race only determine those physical characteristics we use to socially define race and that's it. That's why it's a misnomer: the "race" is not different in any way except physical, any other traits are simply human traits. In society, race is real, in genetics, race is real but not at all conducive to the social reality. Society's view of race is enormously exaggerated, almost to the point of fabricated, when compared to the genetics.

Dear OP,

Even if it were to be established that the average Dachshunds is a better hunting dog than the average German Shepherd, it would still be unfair not to let individual German Shepherds an opportunity to prove his hunting skills.

That is why such tendencies on the collective level always have to be disregarded in order to treat the individual fairly. Therefore speculation on this subject is of not much consequence.

Yeah, this suits me.

Think about the history of 'race' in the early colonial context. The fact is that race was not a delineated structure up until a few hundred years ago. Race very much has to be institutionalized in order to be seen as real. Mexico is a good example of this. The Spaniards, i.e. the 'whites' faced a huge issue when they started fornicating with the indigenous population. Some of their offspring had a 'white' appearance. They saw this as a threat to the power structure they had set in place. And so they wrote up racialized law designating that maternal 'racial' lineage superseded all other. You can see it in the American colonies as well. The early British colonials noticed issues with the harmony of the colonies when British indentured servants and farmhands started rebelling, well what easier way to create solidarity than to designate another group of people even lower than them? And so the concept of white was born, to unite and transcend systems of exploitation.

Of course it does, time is relative when it comes to evolution - depending on the size of the isolated groups -etc etc, as well as the frequenzy of mutations, which also increases depending on the complexity of the respective genom.

There is no such thing as inherrent worth. Just to use the dog comparisson you made, several species of dogs are preety crippled genetically, with health issues that are just not common to others and yet, they survive, because we choose them to survive, because of some silly cute value to them or something like that.

So should we kill them or not allow them to breed because of it? Or should we continue to cripple them more and more as our values determine which ones to survive? This is a very serious moral debate, not because of the dogs, but because of the extreme difference between the two approaches.

So you gotta see that the worth, the usefulness, is something we construct. You create values "a good dog is this" "a good human being is this" "a good employee is this" and you judge people based on that. What made you create those values were your references, your history, your background. That's what prejudice really is and it's not a bad thing on itself.

Prejudice is to judge before knowing and we don't know anything exactly, all knowledge has its share of prejudice, you see. If I was attacked by a man with long hair (just to drop off the subject of race and put it in perspective) and then years later I was attacked by a second man with long hair, chances are that I would be tense everytime I cross a long haired man on the street. Prejudice is a leap we take in order to interact with the world around us coherently.

>- Man is just a highly evolved/ developed species of mammal(?)
Disagree with the term 'highly evolved.' It's meaningless. But humans are mammals by definition.

>2- Other species of mammal have different races that can interbreed (same species/ different race)?
Some animals of different species can breed (Their offspring is infertile, which is part of the reason they are considered separate species). It's hypothetically possible that humans can produce offspring with other mammals. I don't see what this has to do with anything.

>3- e.g dachsund, terrier, rottweiller, etc; all types of the "dog" species, just different races?
I believe dogs are a subspecies of wolf, but within that (sub)species I suppose you could liken different breeds to different races. Not a terrible analogy.

>4- Can we then assume that all races of the "dog" species have the same level of intelligence, utility, inherrent worth- given that all races of the human species (black/ white/ asian/ aboriginal, etc) have the same level of intelligence, utility, inherrent worth?
We cannot assume that all races/breeds have the same level of intelligence or utility, that's a ridiculous assumption. As for inherent worth, that's a nebulous metaphysical concept so again I don't think we can assume that. Some people think all humans have the same inherent worth. Some people think some humans have more inherent worth than others. Some people think all life has the same inherent worth. None of these positions are more 'true' than any other.

What I am against is the bad use of prejudice and that is simply to not acknowledge it's a prejudice at all, to think that's true. The difference between prejudice and a supposed truth may induce to radical change in how people relate to each other. If the guy attacked by the long haired man were to believe that it was definitely true that long haired man are not worth it, then it would be sensible for him to attack this new guy with long hair before he does.

But instead, if he understands the influence that the men with long hair had in him and even, if he understand the context, on the reasons and consequences, on the coincidence factor, on where he was and how was the situation and what really incited them to attack him, he would be much more reasonable in the way he treats long haired men. That's not to say he would be at ease with them, but by understanding it, he would gain new knowledge, new references and would have a wider perspective on the issue.

Similarly, Marks agree with Edwards that correlations between geographical areas and genetics obviously exists in human populations, but goes on to note that "What is unclear is what this has to do with "race" as that term has been though much in the twentieth century - the mere fact that we can find groups to be different and can reliably allot people to them is trivial. Again, the point of the theory of race was to discover large clusters of people that are principally homogeneous within and heterogeneous between, contrasting groups. Lewontin's analysis shows that such groups do not exist in the human species, and Edwards' critique does not contradict that interpretation."

From the thing you're citing, and we've already covered it:
>In society, race is real, in genetics, race is real but not at all conducive to the social reality. Society's view of race is enormously exaggerated, almost to the point of fabricated, when compared to the genetics.

Now let's put some race in this. You are in a country that was colonized by Europe, with slaves coming from Africa, that has a history and now instead of the men with long hair, it was a black man that attacked you in those occasions. What caused that? Was it the black skin? The consequence of genetics? Or was it culture? Consider the references and the history of the man and in a connected world, consider how much more dependent we are of statistics. So maybe, yeah, it's easier for you to be robbed by a black man, because it's easy for a black man to be poor, because it's easier for the poor man to come from a family of slaves. So is the fear of black men justified here? It's actually a way for us to understand the history behind the blacks and by understanding it, taking a more rational approach to the subject, knowing when you are ought to succumb to prejudice or give it a chance because of other things you know about it.

I believe in the concept of race, because there are differences, much like there are differences between a man and a woman. The issue is that we are so quick to assume races are better than others, when not even animals are better than the others. Men is not better than animals at all, dude.

Afro-americans have got to be the whiniest bunch and most self-entitling bunch of them all. Nevermind the fact that there are lots of white and asian groups that lived under slavery during the 20th century but when given the chance built a working society from rubbles in less than 50 years time. While africans where given topnotch countries with plenty of resources around just destroyed everything. And why is that europeans should hold guilt on slavery when most of it were done in the name of a highly hierarchic tyrannical regime - namely monarchy. Why is that slavery is strictly a suffering for blacks? Fuck white guilt.
