    Default Race Realism - The Biological Reality of Race




    It is fashionable to claim that race is a sociological construct and that the concept of race has no scientific basis. Common sense tells us this is wrong.

    Users, do you believe race is a biological fact or a social construct?

    How are you still a communist?


    Core principle is that Humanity is only divided by class and nothing else.

    I believe race is a biological reality, but I think differences in mental/non-physical traits are not a result of their race i.e. I don't believe Sub-Saharan Africans have a low IQ or are so poor because of biological/racial reasons.

    I don't believe that popular categories of race, such as "white" and "black" are biologically real. But I definitely do believe that there is a biological basis for different "populations" in humans, if that makes sense.

    Indian Genomics can be modeled by four-way populations, not two way populations. Read more in this thread:

    Why is their IQ still way below any other population in the USA after several houndred years? Its slightly higher than the IQ of full SSA Africans due to mixing, but still way below the avarage white,asian and even latin american.

    Another reality, west africans are biological superior to anyone else in sprinting.
