@Spaghettimon @mactonite Not true
We have as much genetic variation as other subspecies

And physically we're even more different than full on species (more useful than genetics), which is why until like the 70s we have always been classified as different species (and it wasn't changed for a good reason), including going back to Linnaeus
And we genetically cluster by that morphology

This is so true omg, that's why today it is basically only used for paleonthology when dna is not available
@Spaghettimon @mactonite Both ignores where I show genetics says we're different anyway and ignores himself: "It's all about *what* changes in the dna"
Genetics are used a lot because they just give you direct clades, which gives you good morphology anyway, but you obviously get something more scientifically meaningful by differentiating things that aren't near identical physically, obviously
@Spaghettimon @mactonite Evolution is when you spend 70,000-100,000 years in completely opposite environments but end up with identical brains and completely opposite anatomies. Any clustered differences are a coincidence
Can't really expect better from a communist, someone who's ideology is founded on humans being magic altruistic blank-slates, and if we just didn't own anything we'd all be equal, and share, and crime wouldn't exist, and all that
Anyone can make an analogy to support anything, that's not special, though there it's kinda soy
Also, mixing in my ideology here is fallacious, since it doesn't have anything to do with the argument at hand
Dna is code and we are machines. Linux distros are all still linux and not windows, no matter the dissimilarities in appearance
And also, I've never denied that genetic hapgroups exist on y-dna and mithocondrial dna (both having the main genetic variation in humans, neither affecting much of our lives), which are the official definition of race, scientifically
