Racism is just a byproduct of herd mentality. When the white herd looks at the black herd and vice versa they feel what is comparable to two alien civilizations meeting. By sectioning themselves off into genre and category the herd limits itself, becoming trapped in a state wherein it no longer takes in new information and stagnates.
There is no need to war on racism and bigotry, as it cannot progress into the future. Justice must only be reserved for times of truly dire consequence.

Because as we all know, genetics aren't real and black civilization is totally equal to white civilization.

You need to get over the generalized opinions. You know what invalidates your argument? The fact that there are plenty of ignorant people in all walks of life. Or that there are plenty of people all across the world of every race, ideology and creed that possess a thousand times more information than you and I.

Humans are primates. We are naturally violent. I dont think there is anything wrong with that. Nature is violent. Chimpanzees go to war and cannibalize those they kill. A lion will destroy the offspring of its rivals. Should lions and chimps be morally condemned? Why should humans be if we are 99% identical to other primates?

Being against "racism" (as in acknowledgement of differentiating characteristics between identifiable genetic stocks, with no implication to particular hostility towards one or the other) ultimately means you are against classification of things via verifiable statistics. But not only does science use this in order to reach more complex understandings, language itself is this: a series of classifications (words) of things via verifiable statistics (sensory data).
So in theory, you're against language as well. You might as well just devolve into an animal, making noises and doing as you please. Oh wait, that's what you're already doing.

Hello R_ddit.
>>679932
Not that anon, but do racial classification systems divide populations in a valid manner based on genetics? Do modern populations have clear divisions without admixture from other populations? If they do then the attempt classification system is not technically valid as it doesn't represent the biological reality of the situation.
Check out the archive, there was a thread on racial classifications with over 300 replies the other day.
>>679945
A battle and violence are by and large quite different. Humans have been battling since their epoch, of course. However, the terms of the winner isn't decided by violence, it's decided by intellect, wisdom, creativity, and charisma. Violence is just one means of achieving victory, and a crude, not very useful one at that.

Did they find the gene?
Or are you still using the pseudoscientific process of elimination method:
"I know a study where they controlled for economic conditions and blacks still turned out to have somewhat lower SAT scores. Since the only two things affecting the development of the brain are wealth and skin color, they're obviously dumb cuz they're black."
>>679940
Racism is discrimination against a group or individual based on genetic differences/skin color. I don't think it's 'racist' to acknowledge genetic differences between races but it is bigoted to just hate someone because of those differences. Individual merits are far more important.

Racial classifications and genetic populations are generally accurate with some exceptions.
In just the last 10 years we've actually made huge strides in population genetics and they are confirming that humans can indeed be categorized.

Seems like you just might be living under a rock if that is what you believe. Even when it comes to crude and established genetic facts, any narrative which even slightly suggests some manner of inferiority or inequality of a minority group, will be dismissed.
For purely experimental and empirical purposes, try bringing up the existence of a warrior gene and it's prevalence in the African-American population and how it can and does influence behavior. Furthermore, try pointing out the similar thing by using the testosterone level variations when it comes to black males.
Simply as it is in the modern world, no matter how much of a solid truth something is, it will be dismissed if it doesn't adhere to established narratives.

>>680018
You deem it biologically advantageous because of it's prevalence across "all" human cultures?
Does that make murder, torture and sadism in general, biologically advantageous as well, considering those too are actualized in "literally every single human culture ever."?
How do you even define and determine "biological advantage"?
>>680043
I hate the trend to try and view all cultural behavior in an evolutionary context. Racism may be beneficial. It may just as well be the result of other tangential benefits that happen to cause racism as a side effect.
Not all cultural practices are evolutionary. It seems highly likely we develop practices simply because we like to reproduce patterns.
>>680074
>simply because we like to reproduce patterns
The 'enjoyment' of patterns is likely to have an evolutionary origin. Also I think the racism based off obvious phenotype might be in large part due to sexual selection bias, even in other species, the peacock who's tail isn't as spectacular isn't seen by the females as preferable.
>>680096
>The 'enjoyment' of patterns is likely to have an evolutionary origin.
Definitely, sorry I wasn't clearer. What I mean is that this need to imitate and pattern-find leads to many many cultural artifacts which can even be detrimental. There is a fad among armchair scientismists to try and explain every cultural artifact. I think *that* is a fool's errand.
>>680104
I think that the basis for many behaviours is rooted in evolution, but of course the particular form these might be expressed as by a culture can't be explained purely by the reductionist attitude.
>>680110
me>>680096
Just because I think it has an evolutionary basis mean I think it is right, evolution doesn't provide meaning, and of course humans are capable of making decision, but to deny the influence of evolution on more fundamental aspects (even though we can choose not to follow our bias) seems naive to me.
>>680110
Racism is not a learned behavior. It is biological.

I don't follow. How exactly is it biological? Racism is no different to homophobia. Behavior that can wildly change through time.
>>680141
Not that anon, but I think xenophobia is Biological, while racism is an expression of this.
>>680141
>homophobia
Doesn't exist. No mainstream psychiatrist recognizes the diagnosis of homophobia. Homophobia is a vaguely defined slur against people who disagree with faggot acceptance.
>implying non-whites aren't far more racist than whites
>>680146
This is probably more accurate. It may even be more fundamental, and be a consequence of our deep pattern-recognizing capabilities and our empathizing as defined by that system.

Why would they need any post-hoc justification for colonial policies? Colonial policies were incredibly popular.

The loss of cultural identity means that they focus on race as the segregating factor.
And I'm not saying america doesn't have culture, I'm saying that the primary culture is a vast homogenous blob, whereas for example in Russia or China, the ethnic/cultural differences are more topical than merely race.
But that's just like, my opinion.
