Why don't the biological/anthropological sciences have a backbone to do proper human taxonomy?

Why don't the biological/anthropological sciences have a backbone to do proper human taxonomy?

They are doing society a disservice by playing coy, and being vague when it comes to humans.

Do we really need to have this thread again?

They've already studied this, they've determined race is not an actual scientific concept. Genetically there is more variation within groups than between them.

(((they've)))

good point ^

>Genetically there is more variation within groups than between them.
true but there is some variation between them, enough that they don't form one massive globular cluster but map on geographically.

This.

>Why don't the biological/anthropological sciences have a backbone to do proper human taxonomy?
have you seen the kind of betas that study this shit? they are sad whimps with no backbone.

ya, these questions are literal thought crimes, who would dare research this topic?

Just gonna drop this here in response to that image

This is the stupidest fucking thing I've ever watched.

it's almost as if humans are especially adept at spotting differences in their own species. Just because we think we look much different doesn't mean we objectively are. Other animals probably perceive us as all being the same if not visually then at least having similar scents and voices.

In a birds mind people are all the same and all the different types of raven's look totally different.

then you haven't seen your own posts.

Oh this stupid rebuttal again.

>There is more variation in height within the sexes than between them.
>Guess that means there's no point in talking about the average differences in height between the sexes, herp derp

You don't actually understand the rebuttal.

>tfw nothing past subspecies actually has any impact
There, problem solved.

OH MY FUCKING GOD I CANT STOP SUCKING DICK GGGGGGGGGAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH

i think his point is that in-group variation does not discount out-group variation. Which is true.

fkn saved

...

race based medicine is becoming a thing, much to the dismay of some folks; turns out different races respond to medicines differently, and medical tests also vary depending on race

Dude, scientists are just prostitutes for governments and private corporations.

There's more money to be made by pretending that blacks are the same as whites. This is about economics, it has nothing to do with science.

>They are doing society a disservice by playing coy, and being vague when it comes to humans.
They're doing society a service by not pandering to /pol/ for no reason other than /pol/ needs to rid itself of cognitive dissonance

Such fucking bullshit. Cystic fibrosis strikes Caucasians at far higher rates than non-Caucasians. Genetic sequencing can identify race with high accuracy. It's not like every time someone submits their saliva to 23andme, it just randomly pops out black/white/asian. It tells them exactly what they are.

>cognitive dissonance
you mean like white liberals who praise diversity yet flee to majority white neighborhoods?

Yes exactly, two sides of the same coin

Yes like that

Because it makes people uncomfortable

This is the reason

Anyone who says otherwise is either lying because it makes them uncomfortable aswell or is trying to mislead you

A very rudimentary genetic test can tell your ethnic background very exactly, different races have different rate of illnesses and there is enough variation between them that each race race appears distinct when mapped as in

>Literally calls black people dogs

This guy is a fucking bitch and needs to be fucking fired, how can people like this go on as if their views arnt literally despicable

are you arguing that blood orange and orange are the same though

because I would say they are distinct, which means your image kind of supports the other one more than refutes it

go back to fucking pol you bitch

except pol is consistent, they don't want to be around diversity and don't pretend like they do.

get the fuck out of white countries you faggot.

oh snap

>>Literally calls black people dogs
no he compared different breeds of humans to different breeds of dog. his point was that the word we use to describe population differences doesn't matter that much, whether its 'race' or 'subspecie' or 'breed' --- its obvious these population differences exist between groups, just like a child can distinguish a rottweiler from a chihuaha

Don't you mean europe

>oranges and blood oranges are the same thing
that's how i know you're a lardass american

>Why don't the biological/anthropological sciences have a backbone to do proper human taxonomy?
becuoth

If you really wanted to make genetic clusters for humans, you could do it in several ways: state a distance metrics between genomes and the number of clusters you want and you will have your groups.

Find a classification that yields statistically significant differences that are not explained through the prevalence of a single gene and you may have a leg to stand on.

Be warned however that most metrics would probably result in several African groups and a group that comprise all the non-African and some African people. If you are looking into making a justification for racialism, expect to be disappointed.

Skin color, that we typically use for differentiating social races, has been shown to be a very poor indicator of genetic closeness as it changes very quickly in a human population depending on the latitude they live in.

And contrary to OP's assumption, humans are routinely characterized in different groups: through nationality, culture, language, place of birth, ethnicity, perceived ethnicity.

It is perfectly acceptable to talk about a French citizen of Nigerian ethnicity born in Benin and living in New York. It is neither being coy or vague. Putting that person in a "black guy" bag is being coy and vague and doing society a disservice by refusing to acknowledge the immense variety of groups among the human race.

>They are doing society a disservice by playing coy
How so?

>This window will close in 3 seconds...

Race based medicine is flawed because it projects the conditions of a group from once society into the rest of the world (Americans racial dynamics to the world). Blacks have shit health in America but Nigerians have much less rates of heart disease then Germans.

Can you provide evidence for this and how does this debunk what OP is talking about?
