Sup /sci/
I kinda feel bad for making this thread, but do you guys mind debunking this? I cropped out the parts that were not sci-related.
Last time I did biology was in high school, but I still believe I shouldn't trust this pic, mostly because Wikipedia tells me there's a scienfic consensus over the fact that race is not a thing.

Also feel free to post your own stuff to debunk.

Im 99.9% inclined you believe that you OP are from /pol/ and merely shitposting. Because otherwise you would see the weekly threads and overwhelming evidence against race being a valuable genetic characterization.

But just in case you're the 0.1% and are sincerely unaware of how often we get this bullshit:

Also populations =/= race

These are wildly different concepts in a biological sense.

>>8505207
*biological sense.
rigorous definitional sense

Nah I'm geniunely wondering, and I usually never read those threads, though I do know you guys get a lot of these.
I'll read your stuff but I don't have time to do it right now, I was kinda expecting a point-to-point answer.

Can be rather easily thrown off by the mix-and-match sources and points used. It's not rigorous, so if Wikipedia or any other authority source contradicts it, it can be dismissed.
I know, it seems like an argument from authority but don't feel too bad about it, they are also using a fallacy.

they are real articles. i think the main issue is what they dont include. Mainly continuum of variability. 1. If using whole population, i imagine this would look continuous. 2. and 3. again continuous variability and in both of these studies, the categorization at the onset is arbitrary and apriori. What neil risch says would be expected under a continuum. 3. 6. no one denies genetic variability but again, this cannot be categorised arbitrarily and superficial race categories e.g. black and white are often not reliable. I even saw in medical articles saying that though yes there are genetic links between diseases and groups, these are not as simple as saying "black people muh diabetes", and the relationships aren't always smooth whether between or within those superficial groups... ultimately an individuals genetics is a far better predictor than those superficial groups.

This brings up that these studies also neglect that genetic variability is often stronger within than between groups and large labels like "black" are inadequate for scientific purposes (but not sociological obviously or everyday purposes necessarily)
