But still just a chance
maybe I'm just subverting the Polish community due to my [[[Kashubian]]] ancestry
@NateDahl76 I've always classified the different groups of people as sub-species almost... we do this to classify other intelligent creatures with several variations, except for Humans.
@Nemets yeah, you’re probably right with that. I don’t think it permeated the consciousness of the entire group until later though. The Greeks knew about the differences between themselves and the Ethiopians, etc. I just meant more that “Europeans started to perceive themselves as a coherent group when they started to interact extensively with very different people.”
Humans have a high enough FST index between groups to count as separate sub species
They do, yes.
I’ve got that picture saved somewhere...
Yeah it’s hilarious that people will point at the same canary with a different beak and go “that’s a subspecies”, but with humans...
well, maybe white and subcons are the same sub species
that's only an issue if you believe in pan Europeanism
which I don't
What constitutes a “race” depends on how precise you want to be, really.
There are some groups of people so genetically distant from us, they could legitimately be classified as different species because we couldn't make off spring with them.
Like that group with that very special blood type, where mating outside their tribe results in... well, you know
lmao so if my Valentine was an Andaman islander, we couldn't have kids?
If you want to be incredibly broad, Europeans and levantines and Arabs and North Indians are all one race. If you choose to break that cluster down a bit more, you’ll have more groups. And so on.
one race, the European and Levantine and Arab and North Indian race
Caucaziods
It’s difficult I think to delineate “racial European” from “Christian” for a while there.
Romanians are more distant too
Christendom and “the west” were synonymous for a long time.
Party trick: ask hapas how it was having impacted wisdom teeth and watch them be confused at how you were able to guess it
If you’re extremely autistic, which I know all of you are, there’s a website which’ll break down your hunter gatherer and middle eastern farmer components.
@ophiuchus Agreed.
Which I find that subsets of Christians are excellent recruits for our side.
@NateDahl76 okay that's an epic troll
Yep
is wisdom teeth only a European thing?
Nah asians have larger teeth European have smaller jaws
Oh wow
No, but I want to say Asians have a lesser incidence
Mix it together and you get an extremely high impact rate
one time my dad was having a party and this Asian woman was taking care of a Hapa kid and I had to resist the urge to say "oh I see you're babysitting" and pretend it was a mistake
Don't eskimos not have wisdom teeth
Whether or not you have them from race to race, but most peoples have them I think
@Jacob I see you’re babysitting....your own child
Comparatively, as far as major races go, I want to say we, caucasiods, are most similar to mongoloids. Siberian hunter gatherer component.
The Amerindians are more closely related to them than we are though.
The Khoisan are the most divergent from everyone else.
(Those are your click language people.)
Those are the ones where you look at a detailed average IQ map and go “Holy crap, 55???” 😂
I'm really interested in the blood type differences between groups. Type A is predominate in Europeans, and the Rh- Factor is almost exclusively European.
