wow humans really did just dominate the planet
I was watching this monkey show on netflix, and there is this one species that eats its weight in GRASS just all day eating grass

How did that monkey get to be so inefficient in getting calories? There's nothing in grass. And since we're pretty sufficient in caloric needs (I think we can go further in powder/lipid formulations but that's another thread) where do we go from here? 40 thousand years later and we're still here, just eating cheetos and fapping because what the fuck else can we get from our bodies and the forces of nature

The difference is, you haven't actually provided any decent explanation, or data, just a picture.
You can take pictures of various rocks, and often they'll look almost identical, what matters is the scientific analysis.
The thing is, subspecies are often more genetically distinct from one another than humans are.

For instance, notice that the generation variation between dogs and grey wolves (their progenitor) is greater than the genetic difference between different human populations.
So no, your image is bullshit, and doesn't take into account actual scientific factors.

And just you don't fuck up, look at the massive difference between the numbers used to measure variation between grey wolves and dogs, and between different human populations
0.2 for c.l/f measurements along the x-axis, 0.002/0.0025 for h.s measurements along the x-axis. That's a difference of 0.198/0.1975.
Showing that genetic variation between grey wolves, dogs and other dogs, is greater than between different human populations, by a considerable factor.

In fact, take a look at Australian Shepherds and Australian Cattle Dogs, the total y-axis variation between that entire breed is 0.1. But in humans, the total y-axis variation between European populations and African populations is around 0.005.
So, between dogs of the same breed, Australian Shepherd dogs, in this case, there is more y-axis variation than between European and African populations, by an entire factor of 0.095, more than the entire variation between ANY human population.

Either way, my point still stands, the variation within breeds is either around, or greater than, the variation between different human populations, and certainly between the broad category of dog and grey wolves.

That's because eye, hair and skin color are all more or less 3 genes. Out of 25000 in a human. But this is of course unknown information to /pol/fags.

Of course 3 genes won't show in any real genetic clustering of humans.

Exactly, it's also why their whole "race purity" thing is bullshit. Humans are far more similar than even the same breed of dog, and yet we refer to all dogs as Canis lupus familiaris. As per OPs criteria, Homo sapiens is a perfectly valid classification for all humans.

As someone who used to frequent "human biodiversity" boards, racial realism is legit, but discerning subraces based on phenotype alone (in person or from photographs) is autistic and unreliable.
Autosomal DNA plots can identify the major racial clusters accurately enough, what you do with that information is up to you.

>As per OPs criteria, Homo sapiens is a perfectly valid classification for all humans.
OK

However, I don't, in principle, see a reason we shouldn't be more granular as far as humans go than we would be with dogs.
I don't mind dong racial clusters etc. it's just the /pol/monkeys do it in a dumb way that makes no sense.
Just look at >>11235834. Clearly the guy didn't intend for the viewer to think turks are white, yet that is what the meme literally implies. The cognitive dissonance is far too easier to spot.

I posted that same plot in a different thread
You are essentially right, there are wrinkles here and there, but it is the closest you'll get to sub-species or races.
Something like
Caucasian, Asian, African, Australian, American

Also the lab can prove not just your race but if given good data to compare, it can probably prove which country or region you come from, which doesn't invalidate the concept of doing larger clusters.

One more thing
Guesstimating race based on phenotype isn't completely insane as long as the phenotype you are looking at is a human head with all the flesh removed - ie a skull.
A skull forming involves many genes so it's a good proxy.
However a skull's shape is a bit easy to manipulate based on how the baby lied down, how its crib was and all that, but it's still good overall.

Skullfags from the 19th century literally guessed the clusters the computer spits out today quite well.
