But we are one race.
The variations in genotype is greater within the different "races" than between them. In other words we're the same.

Sure biological taxonomy is usually concerned about qualitative differences in phenotypes, but Humans are different so it makes sense that we use quantitative differences in genotype for just the Human race.

There's no chimping out being done here, though. Hes just explaining that if one were to take (and this test has been done) samples of populations from around the world, there is more variation between two people in terms of total # of genes that are different within a population, than necessarily between populations.

Human populations are incredibly homogeneous genetically, and there's no scientific way to determine the cut-off point for different 'races', so race isn't an issue of science- it's a cultural and sociological thing. People just mistake that the genetic differences across populations are visually distinct means that there must be a large variation of genes, when in fact that's just not the case.

These people are idiots who do not read the papers they cite. They see on figure and think it justifies their views. I doubt the person posting can explain what is being analyzed in the PCA.

Here is the paper and some experts from it.

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/20643205

Patterns of human genetic variation are influenced by mating patterns, and the latter are in turn influenced by geographic and cultural factors (e.g., mountain ranges, language, religious practices). Consequently, it is not surprising that human genetic variation, while correlated with geographic location, is not perfectly clinal [37; 38; 39]. However, between-population differences can be seriously exaggerated if human populations are sparsely sampled.

Consistent with previous studies [37; 39; 40], our analyses demonstrate that differentiation among human populations decreases substantially and genetic diversity is distributed in a more clinal pattern when more geographically intermediate populations are sampled.

We also found that Iraqi Kurds have a closer relationship to European populations than Asian populations. These results increase our understanding of human population relationships and evolutionary history.

As observed in previous studies [4; 5; 7], we find that SNP and haplotype variation is highest in African populations, and that heterozygosity in non-African populations declines with geographic distance from Africa. This decline in heterozygosity has been interpreted as evidence for a worldwide serial founder effect originating in East Africa [4; 41]. While serial founder effects may explain much of the pattern of worldwide variation, we note two interesting deviations from the prediction of a linear decline in heterozygosity.

Not to mention this paper is evidence for OoA, which most racists deny. The paper flat out says why humans have such low diversity in the section "The out of Africa (OoA) bottleneck and the peopling of Eurasia."

Do you know how a principal component analysis works? All this picture shows is the majority of differences in genetics lay between the African population and the rest of the world. This supports a single bottleneck from humanity's origin in Africa.

Now the paper that this figure is from (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/20643205)) looks at a statistic called Fst, or the fixation index. Simply, this is the amount of genetic variation due to population separation. From this, the study shows that there is a global Fst of around 11%. In other words, about 11% of genetic variation is due to geographic separation. The remaining 89% is within populations.

Africa is humanity's birth of origin, and as with all species when comparing a bottleneck to their origin, the origin has the greatest diversity of genotypes. If you're looking for an "edge" they lay within that diversity as that is where the vast majority of humanities genetic heritage lays. We are at the verge of gene therapy and genetic engineering, soon genetics will be at the will of the mind and I believe it is imperative to leave our libraries intact. I'm guessing when you speak of edge, you're also alluding to selective edge in a Darwinian sense. Remember that there are many ways to evolve and two common ones are mutualisms and antagonisms. We as a conscious biological organism get to choose which we embrace.

But these differences between populaces accumulate the further they geographically are and the more in-between populaces are needed to create one single continuous graph.
If science knows such concepts as 'ring species', then why same concept couldn't be realised within human populaces? When differences between neighbouring ethnicities is minor due to mixing, but the far ends of chain can be recognizably different, both anatomically and neurologically.

>That would be true if there were no mutations or recessive genes, which sadly is untrue.

What are you talking about? Recessive genes provide a phenotype. One example you've probably heard of is sickle cell, a recessive mutation in hemoglobin that provides resistance to malaria. This mutation is also deleterious, as when the mutant is homozygous, it causes sickle cell anemia. However, from this we learned that potentially altering the shape or the hemoglobin molecule itself gives resistance to malaria. Mutations are generated at a relatively constant rate so the number of new mutations in the bottleneck is less than the genetic diversity present in the ancestral population.

I'm not going to argue about differences in phenotype differences because it seems obvious that genetics plays a role. But our comparisons, especially in the field of neurology are far from proving links between neurology and something as abstract as cognitive processes.

>> No.9132868

>>9132823
>What are you talking about?
That local environmental circumstances can apply different pressures on populations, leading to bigger or lesser pressure applied to various recessive alleles. Just like people of African ancestry tend to have rather specific type of hair (you know what I mean), while among native Eurasian populations hair varies from straight to extremely curly.

Also pardon me if I was told lies, but apparently there are genetic differences between various native populations that lead for example to varying numbers of repetitions of certain gene, which are correlated with ethnicity, which lead to disparate effectiveness of various neurotransmitters.

Tropical Africa, due to it's climate and flora, offers moderate amount of foodstuffs all year round, and savannah offers abundant game, requiring hunters to only follow migratory routes.
Together with other factors like existence of big predators relying on running or environment favourable for bacterial life this creates strong selection for certain phenotypes, and while diversity within boundaries of phenotype dominant in certain biome can and will be great due to mutations et cetera, there's no need in populace to adapt to less stable environment and thus deviations from the most successful phenotype will be repressed, as for example I brought up before the hair of native African populations is in great majority tightly curled, because it is advantageous over other forms of hair, thanks to greater ease of keeping necessary hygiene.

It is thought to have developed as a random mutation in a Chinese man many generations ago. It is also thought that these genes have stuck around because they might also protect against certain diseases.

As I recall my last visit to "sci" made a case for understanding the hubris of interpreted-versus-actual word definitions, and the real meaning of bias implications, using the hot button of racial disparities.
I showed how both mainstream sides (yes, both "extremes" are mainstream, and they're both extremes) AND the middleground whom ultimately sway the public decisions are so totally controlled by media forces that it's impossible to truly move forward in a positive way.

I was reported and the thread deleted after a few posts of some fanatical decrier refusing to take a rational analytical approach to discussing human mental differences for the sake of the actual discussion, which was a case for understanding how the masses are influenced by biased agenda.

I would remind /sci/ that the emotional aspect of the human brain is a mammalian instinct, and the cerebral aspect of the human brain is where logic can be allowed to override the mammalian instinct. I would remind /sci/ that for many, ultimately their mammalian instinct is to their blood relation family above all others, and if you've ever been in any kind of social interaction with people you'd find this self-evident.
But men are easy to trick, and even easier we follow along the group for the comforting idea of exclusive safety.

what is currently observed of the different "Races" of humanity is less based on the hard dna differences and more based on the rna and local environmental/social constructs of both societies and regions. Minor genetic traits like sickle cell anemia and little to no tolerances for alcohol and milk are minor genetic differences that subsist because of the environmental and social constructs that exist even today. The only factor that would allow for a different race to "Actually" be a different race is if one group was genetically incapable of having viable-multi-generational offspring with another group. Neanderthals genetics were close enough to ours to be sequenced in but were considered genetically to be mostly non-dominant traits that all but went away. Same with all the other RACES that we have literally fucked and breed out of existence while advancing technologically, socially, and adaptively more rapidly.

societal factors seem to be almost the greater factor right now for human evolution as it is. Environmental factors are being actively fought/adapted technologically for. We are breeding different types of plants and animals in only one generation that would have taken us centuries to do with the old methods. We are developing technology that allows us to do things that would have been considered magical just last century or even fifty years ago. Of course we are also speeding up natural geological processes while doing all of this, the largest factor not being oil or technological pollution; terraforming of all ariable land and cattle ranching being the largest factor, followed by road and structure building. Globalization also tends to increase population mixing and homogenization rapidly with both higher and lower social groups more rapidly mixing and breeding. South Park had the right idea of where we were heading with global population appearances.

I was mostly referring to your picture.

There's no point in arguing about scientific definitions of race anymore. you're absolutely correct in that there is no meaningful way to categorize humans into discrete races, and it comes down to differences in admixture instead of genetic drift.

However, the term 'race' as it is used in political and social discussions means something different.
It's mostly about phenotypes that cluster together in order to accrue a benefit in competing with other such groups, and it can easily be replaced by concepts based on castes, aristocracy, classes, religion, languages, history, and even simply myths.

The idea of us being one race, one people and fairly living together is simply a naive illusion, as are ideations of supremacy.
Practically speaking, you will always be a part of this competition for power and resources, no arbitrary definition of moral standards will ever change that.

Classifications like race will always be around, sophistry around it's definition and reduction to absurdity will never change that.

Just think about that before you vote to potentially allow hundreds of millions of people access to your resources and social security benefits.

Two things must be acknowledged:
-Not all genetic differences are equal, ie, differences in behavior, mechanical characteristics, physiology, and intelligence, will not manifest as some sort of sum of absolute difference. Populations with greater genetic variation could result in trivial differences, whereas slight and specific differences could be profound. Many pathways might not even be used, making changes irrelevant. Of course this goes both ways.
-Certain populations are very strange outliers

Race obviously exists, and certain clustering of traits does appear to bias behavior, belief, and psychology. Aptitude remains less clear.

I also suspect Europeans were engineered. Perhaps by aliens, or a species that came before us. Near as I can figure, we were probably pets, or designed to purge the entire planet. I mean look at it. Everywhere else in the world, brown and black hair. Brown eyes. Very low incidence of any other phenotype, about on par with other mammals. Then you have Europe. Where for some reason, you had a rapid emergence of different hair colors, eye colors, skin /dermal characteristics, facial morphologies, indefinite expression of lactase. And on top of it, we're extremely susceptible to mindless expansion and hierarchical control. Almost as if we were created to be pets, playthings, slaves.

Race has never been the real problem.
It's a culture thing.
Brown or white or yellow skin doesn't make people act a certain way, but where someone comes from dictates the culture they've grown in, and when culture and race happen to be in the same area (Asian people typically live by an Asian culture) it's an easy identifier for what that person could be like.

I would never assume that a turban and a beard make someone a rapist, but if people with turbans and beards typically come from a place of, for lack of a better term, "Rape Culture", it's about as unreasonable as it is politically correct to think that that person might be more likely to rape someone than someone from a different culture.

Are you joking? Things I've seen on /pol/:
-All college is "liberal brainwashing"
-climate change isn't real
-historical events recorded by thousands or millions of people never happened
-Out of Africa theory isn't real
-liberals or Jews are hiding the "truth" about race

That board is nothing but conspiracy theories for dumb violent far right wingers.

>So someone heard the phrase "race is only skin deep" and thought it was literally denying other physical differences like facial structure and made this image just to "correct" people? That's probably a sign of actual autism.
>denies deeper differences than skin
>there's more
>that's not what we meant
>there's differences in brain size, shape and brain regions among the races
>"race is skin deep"
is this board even remotely scientific minded?

you're moving the goal posts. you never contested the fact that the prevailing opinion on /sci/ is that race exists.

>Read the sentence after the underlined one. Look at the table and notice how low the Fst values are for humans compared to the others.

>Furthermore, Lewontin has never adressed the fact that there are many species with recognized subspecies which have Fst values lower than Humans. As can be seen below, I was easily able to find 8 other species with recognized subspecies which have Fst values no higher than humans. In fact, it isn’t hard to find researchers in the nonhuman literature taking any Fst value greater than zero as evidence that a population is a subspecies. See, for instance, Lorenzen et al. 2007 and Williams, Homan, Johnston, and Linz, 2004. Given this, it is clear that most biologists do not use Lewontin’s criteria, whatever exactly that is, for subspecies. And given that he has never made any argument for using it, neither should we.

>Scientists Measure the Accuracy of a Racism Claim
>In a 1981 book, “The Mismeasure of Man,” the paleontologist Stephen Jay Gould asserted that Morton, believing that brain size was a measure of intelligence, had subconsciously manipulated the brain volumes of European, Asian and African skulls to favor his bias that Europeans had larger brains and Africans smaller ones.
>[...]
>But Dr. Gould himself omitted subgroups in his own reanalysis, and made various errors in his calculations. When these are corrected, the differences between the racial categories recognized by Morton are as he assigned them. “Ironically, Gould’s own analysis of Morton is likely the stronger example of a bias influencing results,” the Pennsylvania team writes.

(((Gould))) lied about cranial measurements, and left-wingers lie about and suppress data on race

They're brainlets anyway for measuring skull size instead of brain volume

And /pol/'s obsession with Anglo straight foreheads is a joke since people with significant THAL DNA have superior ubermensch slanted foreheads

Being a mixed breed makes me feel superior.

Genetically superior. As in, intrinsically biased towards superiority. Not akin to the herd like the controllers, not the herd itself, yet not free from the herd either. Just apart. Slave in the same way a leaf is directed by the stream.
