Why do we give Biologists the mic with regards to anthropology. Most contemporary Anthropologists would agree race is real.
>>
>>9040544
As far as I know, they don't. In general its too fragmented to say that race is real or not. "black people" from one part of africa are very genetically different than black people 500 miles away.

And Anthropologists would say that ethnic groups are real but race is also fragmented.
>>
this is how human "races" really look like

they dont look like neat distinct categories

on the other hand, it is not true that there are no differences either
>>
>>9040560
Look's pretty distinct desu. Look at the groups not intersecting.
>>
>>9040560
So if a Hadza and a Native American reproduced the child would be the most mixed-race possible right?

Since its from two populations which are as genetically different as its possible for that combination to be
>>
Because you can't actually classify the hundreds of ethnicities based off of nothing but skin color.
>>

-t reddit.

No one does it based on skin color, idiot.
>>
>>9040544
Race is an illusory construct, you do not need science to tell you the truth. All you need is reason. Let me tell ya somethin.

the idea that a large group of people arbitrarily drawn together based on boundaries abstracted from a subjective and epistemologically naive interpertation of reality can be a functional entity is absurd.

Wrong board for you.

that's actually incorrect

Typical autist, can't see the wood for the trees.
>>
>>9040971
By your standards 99% of scientific research is false since all their budget have ties to politics.

Now go be retarded somewhere else.
>>
>>9040920

does /pol/ consider albino blacks to be white? nope

so it is not skin color
>>
>>9040977
>By your standards 99% of scientific research is false

Not false but driven by economic and political agendas.

you call him a retard but cant even see through a simple statement.

>Most contemporary Anthropologists would agree race is real.
Define "real." They would certainly agree that it's real in the sense that it's socially constructed.

>inb4 pseuds claim that social constructs don't exist
>>
>>9041052
why are you samefagging?
>>
>>9041006
You don't understand how research happens, and obviously have never studied any. Listen to your superiors brainlet, wake up and realize you have no clue what you are talking about.
>>
>>9041061
Constructs are not real if they are constructed from an illusory abstraction of reality
>>
>>9041061
The entire mathematical language is socially constructed as well.
>>
>>9041087
The entire mathematical language is constructed from a priori logic. Race is a spook constructed from illusion.
>>
>>9040544
Genetics differ and do matter, but there is no connection to race.

Race is a superficial and arbitrary construct. Individuals from Spain, Africa and America are all considered the hispanic race despite having wildly different genes. Individuals form Europe with huge similar genes are considered different races because of their language and culture. There is no connection to science there.
>>
>>9041061

help me im retarded.

please explain how clear physical distinctions as well as skin colour its self is a social construct?

or is this not what you are arguing?
>>
>>9041109
>clear physical distinctions
Lol nope. Naive physical disinctions* those distinctions are just a little trick your brain plays on you to help make sense of what you perceive. grouping individuals into catagories based on arbitrarily drawn boundaries like skin color is not based in reality. Species are not real for this same reason.
>>
>>9041103
-t /leftypol/

go back to dick riding stirner.
>>
Miraculously, even though biologists can't detect race, hiring managers and university admissions seem to have no trouble at all. What an INCREDIBLE fact.
>>
>>9041125

species of animal are a social construct also
>>
>>9041066
>You don't understand how research happens

Go back to the lab you stupid monkey and do what your masters pay you to do.
>>
>>9041145
This has nothing to do with what I was talking about. Would you prefer if is said, "race is a cognitive illusion based on irrationally interpreted sense data."
Spook is funnier to say imho
>>
>>9041125

>Species are not real for this same reason.

not sure if being trolled here..
>>
If race doesn't exist, how come companies care about diversity so much? Are they just deluded trying to hire "black people" when such people, according to science, do not exist?
>>
>>9041187
You aren't, all life is the same thing.
This explains it, sorta.
>>9033876
>>
>>9040544
lets give dumb people tools to spread hate for no practical reason eh?
>>
>>9041198
>If race doesn't exist, how come companies care about diversity so much?
they don't, companies care about the bottom line, profit. Companies are catering to diversity because if they do not, a competing company will and they will lose business from the people who care about that kind of thing, which is obviously enough business for them to care about it.
Companies don't ultimately care about anything other than appeasing their market, which diversity does in this day and age
