if racial groupings are objectively scientific then why isn't there an international standard in the science community for what racial groupings there are 😆

kek

2018-06-03 20:42:16 UTC  

Because thats not politically correct

BecAusE ThAt'S Not POlITcAlLY cOrRECt

but the medical benefits behind it would be vast

2018-06-03 20:42:39 UTC  

Muh scientific authorities isnt an argument

2018-06-03 20:42:47 UTC  

I thought we were arguing wether race exist not where the specific line goes between races and how many there exist

2018-06-03 20:42:51 UTC  

"the scientific community censors things based on whether they're PC or not"
>completely misunderstands how science works

but races are literally the categorizations of human genetic variation

if there is no clear specific line than there is no true 'objective' grouping of races it's a pointless and futile endeavor.

it suggests our current understanding of race is motivated by something else other than science

2018-06-03 20:45:02 UTC  

Because those lines arent officially drawn

'because they aren't officially drawn'
because there's no scientific reason to do so

2018-06-03 20:45:15 UTC  

We can still make distinctions between groups

which are unscientific

so are useless and pointless

and politically motivated

2018-06-03 20:45:28 UTC  

so why can't anyone agree on where the lines even are if they exist

and social constructions

2018-06-03 20:45:33 UTC  

Muh scientific authorities

2018-06-03 20:45:42 UTC  

It doesnt matter that its socially constructed

it does

2018-06-03 20:45:58 UTC  

social constructs by definition do not exist

because it throws a lot of fascist theory out the window if races aren't things that are truly objective

it's like

over facts

2018-06-03 20:46:18 UTC  

Categories dont exist unless humans make them

which i thought the right-wing was against

2018-06-03 20:46:23 UTC  

Its a retarded point

2018-06-03 20:46:33 UTC  

perhaps in origin, but as I have pointed to genetic clustering compared to self identification. its quite the jump to say because we dont have the specific line for it that race doesnt exist? the reason we do this top-down approach with testing is because we are not able yet to do the bottom up by pointing to specific genes.

2018-06-03 20:46:54 UTC  

so I guess the four fundamental forces didn't exist until humans discovered them
👏

genetic gene clustering comes from genetic samples bottom up 🤔

2018-06-03 20:48:06 UTC  

I mean as in pointing to specific genes.

"pointing at specific genes" this falls into the issue that there is more variation with individuals in the genetic cluster than between genetic clusters overall

but i guess

MUH SCIENTIFIC AUTHORITIES

guess we should just stop all science because they're just appeal to authority.

2018-06-03 20:49:55 UTC  

"the scientific community has said that race exists"
"no they haven't"
"wtf stop appealing to authority"

^this is a problem we have to address too
