Why do Stormfags think that that Indo-Aryans created a caste system to avoid mixing with the native population in India and elsewhere? It's obvious that the point of it was to ensure a high rank in society for their descendants, not to segregate themselves from the rest of the population. Ancient Indo-Europeans practiced exogamy with women from other tribes very early on, after all.
Thoughts, Veeky Forums?
>ensure a high rank in society for their descendants
So basically to segregate themselves from the lesser men in other societies.
Right.
I think Reddit is more your speed.

You're talking about people who literally cite Adolf Hitler as a historian. Who cares what they think our why.
Read the entire post, retard. They still took women from other tribes, and ancient India was no exception, because they were only interested in the continuation of their lineage rather than purity of blood.
Prove me wrong (you can't)
Women marrying up was sanctioned under the caste system which is about population partitioning first and foremost.
They were mixed from the start though, no doubt some intermingling happened prior to the establishment of the caste system. In any other case Brahmins would resemble their progenitors.
but Indians as a breed are very heterogeneous the exceptions you raise do not disprove the rule of endogamy. the bhramins overwhelming mated with other bhramins and are more alike to other bhramins than the other castes. It is reciprocal with the other castes. they really are micro-races despite their original motivations.
>R1a is Indo-European
>Yamnaya and Hittites are R1b-M269
Pick one Achmed
I am indian and this is absolutely false.
You cannot differentiate between a brahmin and lower caste just by looks alone if they are both relatively well off. There are many differences between different ethnicities but none among castes, just that almost all poor people are lower caste.
We do not think that, jackass.
Exactly. Purity of blood is a nazi concept that they are trying to impose on everything, like lineage for example which is different.
Jews for example are exclusive to others but allow convertion by anyone disregarding of his race (for example a chinese or african) and consider children with non jewish male parent as jews.
Different groups had/have different ideas of what it means ''to preserve the group trough future generations''. Some may say language and culture like later Romans did. Or even same Ruling family and its subjects etc.

>Race is solely phenotype.
You can't even tell Asian ethnicity aparts on looks alone yet there are distinct genetic clusters for each. Also there are subtle variations such as those bloodlines that did the manual labor and peasant work are darker than those who were indoors doing scholarship and administration, this is by no means uniform even within a strata. Tamil bhramins are darker through latitude and are no less gifted. The caste system is selective breeding- it works yet upsets people as a premise. It doesn't have social or political relevance but religious and pedigree significance are not eliminated.

Yes we can...?
OP, the Indo-European caste system existed in ALL Indo-European societies, and it existed BEFORE the invasion of India. It's cute to say that conquering the very dark Dravidians provided a biological backing to the Caste system but there simply isn't enough information about the time to say anything definitive.
There are villages of Brahmins who are pitch black, and there are villages of Brahmins who could pass for Europeans. They differ genetically more from isolation than from caste.
>You can't even tell Asian ethnicity aparts on looks alone
You actually can.
There was race-mixing to some degree, but probably only after the old ethos of the Aryas was undermined. Still, even today high-caste Indians have significantly higher proportions of Indo-European ancestry compared to low-caste folk.
Isolation is more than merely geographic-it includes who they reproduce with and populations living side-by-side will drift if they do not mix which the caste system predicates. Biological disparities account for India's social disparities.
The truth is somewhere in between, as the lower strata of society will generally tend to be non-Aryan.

this retarded article again
faulty data from the 70s and 80s
basically saying india is a country of smart and stupid people (think about it and you'll realize why whites are no different)
subject matter is irrelevant, what is relevant is how much of a drone you are
>You can't even tell Asian ethnicity aparts on looks alone
Except you can
>just that almost all poor people are lower caste.
Yeah I'll go on and call that bullshit.
A lower caste from south India is more likely to be more affluent than a upper caste from ritual Bihar or up or Rajasthan.
You do know that the terms Aryan and dravidian are only used as linguistic groupings and not racial in India right ? What used to be two different ancestral north Indians and ancestral south Indians about 5000 years ago intermingled over the millenia and modern Indian except in very isolated areas like jungles are a mongrel breed of these two groups and there is little to no genetic difference between them.
Caste is representative of steppe ancestry.

Yamnas were R1b at Samara, from where they migrated to western Europe and had intercourse with farmers along the way to create the Irish and Scots.
We don't know what the Yamnas of Ukraine had, but we know that R1a killed off the R1b men in the steppe and probably took their women.

Elevated steppe ancestry is associated with higher caste.
This is false.
Brahmins look more caucasoid.
>What used to be two different ancestral north Indians and ancestral south Indians about 5000 years ago
I.e aryans and dravidians you fucking retard
elevated slut ancestry is associated with your mom
Read that post again, retard. Nowhere did I say that lower caste people cant be affluent or anything about difference in north and south, just that poor people everywhere in India are generally lower caste.
No, not anymore than the rest. But since rich people dont work in the sun all day nor do heavy labour work they are generally fairer. But the caucasoid look doesnt depend on caste, it depends on ethnicity.
>elevated slut ancestry is associated with your mom
t. poo
proto Indo Europeans came from Eastern Europe whether you can accept that is another question.
the caste system was explicitly to avoid racemixing it says so in the Bhagavad Gita

racemixing leads to all evils according to sacred Indian texts
