What do you guys think about race realism? Can a leftist be a race realist?
And if you are opponent of "race realism" what theory do you support?
Boasian theory:
or
critical race theory:
Also what do you think about Noel Ignatiev and T.W. Allen and theories and concept of "whiteness"? Do you agree that we should "abolish white race"?
Does race realism by definition mean race is connected to specific mental characteristics?
Here's a challenge:
Use data on the average differences between human populations to objectively and non-arbitrarily derive the number of and lines between human racial groups.
Then we can have this conversation.
Yeah I'm a race realist, in the sense the different Autism Level levels of the 'races' is due to different material conditions and little to do genetics.
Father of all sakaist retards who think that race=class
absolute retard
If you mix race with leftism you become a SJW
Why do you think you need an "alternative" to bullshit? Just stop believing in it. Would you ask for an "altlernative" to astrology?
Full retard.
No.
The theory that it's made up bullshit. "Race" isn't real. You don't need a theory to disbelieve something.
Races do not exist. Variability exists and it clusters according to your ancestry, but calling it "race" is retarded. The word "race" refers to fundamentally different types and would be appropriate to use in reference to homo sapiens vs homo erectus or something. The different population groups of humans we have today are nowhere near distant enough genetically to constitute separate "races." This whole discussion gets even more retarded once you realize that 90+% of human genetic diversity is contained within sub-Saharan Africa, and that humans outside Africa are descended from a few splinter groups who left that continent. If you were to divide people up according to ancestry and divergence the vast majority of divisions would be within the African continent, with much of Asia (the most populous continent) being only a few distinct groups. Genetic differences are much closer to having common family traits than speciation.
Uh, that's true, but critical race theory tends to adopt a rigid idea of racial categories when (being made up for convenience) the boundaries on a race fluctuate constantly. "White" people used to hate each other over nationality before the concept of whiteness existed. Zig Forums is full of mutts who think they're white enough to be on the nazi's good side.
People who use words like "whiteness" instead of saying "the idea of whiteness" are actively trying to confuse people and make the already hair-trigger white identitarians have something to freak out over. They know exactly what they're doing.
These videos are highly relevant to the subject in general, but especially to your point.

Less thorough, the above videos were an expansion on this, but this one is more of a tl;dr
Who the fuck cares?

Oh wtf
