because certain human characteristics like eye and hair and skin color (the main ones) have many different genes that control expression

2021-01-11 18:14:15 UTC  

and when you mix "races" they can vary an awful lot

2021-01-11 18:14:33 UTC  

people also confuse the origin of genetic variations

2021-01-11 18:14:37 UTC  

yea I can barely tell who's even half white on a lot of people

2021-01-11 18:15:07 UTC  

blue eyes are not exclusively European as an island of black people actually had their own blue eyed variation pop up

2021-01-11 18:15:13 UTC  

that and blonde hair there

2021-01-11 18:15:15 UTC  

very cool

2021-01-11 18:15:20 UTC  

oh I heard of that place

2021-01-11 18:15:47 UTC  

it is a cool look into big misconceptions on appearances in human genetics

2021-01-11 18:16:16 UTC  

Melanesians, that's the group

Idk if I got all things right on them, but that is the group I was referring to

2021-01-11 18:17:19 UTC  

I like his attitude but how does he know there's more black racism?

2021-01-11 18:17:44 UTC  

i mean, i do have to say it seems that the US has more "in your face" racism than other countries

2021-01-11 18:18:07 UTC  

yea america has a lot of in your face racism although idk if it's because of media dividing us

2021-01-11 18:18:09 UTC  

but the us culturally is filled with more individualistic and confident outspoken people

2021-01-11 18:18:21 UTC  

it's part of the whole "free speech and country" aspect

2021-01-11 18:18:29 UTC  

I feel bad he got racial profiled but is it even as common as he think?

2021-01-11 18:18:40 UTC  

well media, yes, because it's also extremely large here

2021-01-11 18:18:51 UTC  

America is huge for media and entertainment

2021-01-11 18:19:01 UTC  

I'm not in america and I'm in canada but I doubt it's that different

2021-01-11 18:19:21 UTC  

Also "black people feel like they don't belong" doesn't get asked where you from

2021-01-11 18:19:39 UTC  

bitching aside, I think he has a good point although I doubt it's as much as he says

2021-01-11 18:19:56 UTC  

Americans are almost hyperfocus on ethnicity

2021-01-11 18:20:17 UTC  

and I believe this is solely because we never formed a separate nationality or full identity as a country

2021-01-11 18:20:18 UTC  

If it was 2019 I wouldn't be hyperfocus, but because of blm I am hyperfocus

2021-01-11 18:20:24 UTC  

like a tossed salad and not a full meal

2021-01-11 18:21:08 UTC  

so people, being social creatures in need of belonging, look for a place with a solid identity to cling to

2021-01-11 18:21:18 UTC  

unfortunately the US has not been it

2021-01-11 18:21:22 UTC  

and the media makes it worse

2021-01-11 18:21:44 UTC  

I can see what your saying. I don't think canada has this too

2021-01-11 18:22:00 UTC  

I am from US so idk about canada

2021-01-11 18:22:14 UTC  

not sure if the media is intentionally making us divided

2021-01-11 18:22:15 UTC  

Yeah Americans should remember they are Americans

2021-01-11 18:22:26 UTC  

Not whites, not blacks, not Asians, **Americans!**

2021-01-11 18:22:44 UTC  

it would save a lot of time

2021-01-11 18:23:06 UTC  

The media is intentionally dividing the People.

2021-01-11 18:23:17 UTC  

Yeah that is suprisngly hard to grasp but a lot of people don't like to be seen as american os

2021-01-11 18:23:36 UTC  

Individualism is what brought America to this terrible state though

Theres a video going around Twitter about some cops pinning down a white guy and the white guy says "why are you treating me like a black person"
