RACE MIXING IS GOOD

Hmmm. What the hack are you saying?
Since "race" is based on genetic similarity, then mixing-it-up is going to make it more diverse. That just rudimentary biology.
But are you saying that the "races" have far more in common with each other than differences? This would be certainly true.
I think what he meant is that genetic differences happen between individuals, not "races" as a whole. For example, you can easily get two white people who are more genetically different than a white guy and a black guy. On a biological level, "race" as human society defines it truly doesn't matter much if at all.
Keep flying, son. And watch that potty mouth! -

"They're still rare enough that I don't think they do anything on a macro scale, actually."
Are they really that rare? What do you consider a race to be? Most African Americans have some white and native ancestry, in addition to having many different African ethnic groups among their ancestors. Most Native Americans have various tribes in their lineage, and many also have white or black heritage. With European Americans, the longer the family has lived in the country, the more likely they are to be mixed - Whether it be English with German, Irish with Italian, or even a random African or Cherokee ancestor. I'd guess that the majority of Americans can trace their ancestry back to more than one ethnic group, and it's probably the same in Canada too. -

yeah, but then we'll end up looking all the same in coupla 100 years, seems kinda boring to me..
Genetics don't work that way.
Race mixing give MORE genetic diversity, not less. -

"even most Scandinavians lie about their hair color. "
huh? mm let's not even adress that..
what would you call 'diversity' then? After all, on the inside we're suppposed to be all the same right:) -

but you are right about the brown mess. What is Africa and its horrors today will be the world tomorrow
Wowwie wow wow! You have one primitive view of genetics.
It's bizarre for me to even consider that the spread of a certain skin color also spreads the original continent it came from. -

Blue/green eyes blonde hair won't be around in 200 years time, so that means everyone will have black/brown hair, black/brown eyes and (light) brown skin.
You honestly believe that? Heck, in two hundred years, parents might be able to request hair and eye color!
But, your comment helps me understand you better. I think a lot of racism is driven by feeling threatened. -

The biggest problem we are facing in the future is overpopulation of this planet. The most children are being born in the poorest countries (Africa), To acknowledge this fact is being racist? Man, do don't have to do a lot to get called out a racist these days.. I'm wondering what your view is on this overpopulation problem we're facing.

Not to mentionI mean, come on, yo! This is the twenty-first century we are talking about, after slavery, witch burnings, mass forced exodus of Jews from most all European countries has taken place. Who the heck really knows what they started out being racially even one or two centuries ago, anyway?
