if you ate a cut of meat with slightly more or less fat, you just changed the calories
"These traits and features are more common in this group of people in this area." I don't understand why that isn't fairly self evident as existing.
that's not science
It's...reality?
thats like, arbitrary features
If you attempted to use the same recipe each time the calories would appear in a certain frequency and range
that weird nose you have
your mom might not have it
is she a different race?
Obviously not.
how is that obvious
No but you have 50% of her DNA
race is like a list of 100 ingredients that you need to have maybe 20% of to be in the club
What definition of race are you using, Kyle?
and some DNA connection to people in an approximate area over other areas
because realistically, even within what you would consider a "race" there are a mile long list of potential features and outcomes
such a wide variability that even your siblings dont share them
Kyle, what do you think race is? I'm confused about what you're arguing about.
You seem to be saying "humans are different in some ways, therefore there are no similarities"
different in almost all ways they can be
Like, you may have a different nose than your mom but you share more traits with her than someone on the opposite end of the world
russia is pretty far away
i knew a dude from russia who looked like he could be my brother
i would fit in in SA too lol
geotypical traits and features exist
Okay
but its like dropping a bunch of paint on a canvas and then trying to say there is a shape there
its just humans are dumb fucking apes
so they literally go by like 1 primary variable
skin color
your skin is your biggest organ
so it just tries to sort by that
Yes. People who live in a geographical area for a long period of time, interacting with each other, tend to develop and pass along similar genetic expressions, creating similarities easily recognizable that distinguish them from other, divergent groups.
the list of potential features
is like infinitely more than possible similiarities
like saying
A person who lived on the island of Britain could look at a village in the Kongo and say "I am different from that man, and my family is different from his family, and their village is different from my village".
"We have different hair, different skin, different eyes."
why am I doing this?
"polish people have 1 of these 60 noses usually, 1 of these 14 skull shapes usually, 1 of these 40 eyebrow shapes usually" and the list goes on
