where in my post did i say whites were superior

The entire "races can be genetically superior" was invented by social darwinists who believed that whites conquered the world because they are genetically superior. "Superior genetic traits" can't belong to a race because the entire idea of race itself is based on genetic traits that are independent from other things like higher muscle mass and intelligence. For example, saying that white people have a higher intelligence is incorrect because the genetic trait that gives you white skin has absolutely no effect on someone's IQ.

Although judging from how close minded all your posts are you probably haven't actually sat down for more than 5 minutes and thought about what you are saying,

You're 100% correct that skin and other traits have zero correlation and its a justification from racists etc etc but:
saying that existing genetic traits or tendencies can't exist in populations or that skin color isn't a very visual one that can be (usually poorly) used to classify groups together is going too far to the other extreme. Genetic variation in humans is surprisingly low (~1/10th that of chimpanzees for example), but certain genetic groups do have certain genetic advantages in very specific tasks. Muscle insertions are ~80%+ genetic and 100% uncontrollable but can lead to vastly different leverages when it comes to certain athletic events. Its why Eastern Europeans and Northern Asians have an advantage in certain weightlifting sports (hip joint + muscle attachments) and why West Africans have an advantage in running sports. Its why its been a long time since a white guy was the 100m WR. So on that count, racists are right, certain populations are genetically predisposed to certain tasks. The part most of them miss is how unbelievably small these differences are. Only one white guy has broken a 10 second 100m, but a shitload can break a 10.6. Saying that race affects a ~5% (far less than a σ) difference in maximum speed among the very top individuals of a given sport or activity is fine. Saying race affects a 1-2σ in things like general intelligence when comparing the entire population is pretty suspect but could have validity with sufficient proof. Saying race affects intelligence in any meaningful way in 2016 when there have been numerous studies showing the correlation between SES vs IQ and SES vs Race, the closing of the IQ gap, and the general uptrend of IQ of all minority groups relative to the whole population goes beyond you being dumb, it shows that you're only willing to support science when it agrees with your preconceived notions.

so yeah, fuck racists i guess

EDIT: also if yr justification for being a racist is that a black guy said some dumb shit like "kill racists", you're not a very good racist since you're just falling to an equal level of stupid (at best)

smakersOH my god I can't take it

we are turning this into a learning thread

the phrase is "CLOSED-MINDED". it is a state of being open or closed, not a reference to a distance. your mind is not near or far from new ideas, it is open or closed to them.

have a nice day

p.s. lesson #2 is
there is a location
their is a possession
they're is a contraction for they are

I never referred to a distance, thank u for your grammar lesson tho fam

i live in israel and im not jewish, im surrounded by jews and ive met a wide variety of them
