Cry moar, bitch. Back before genetics it was considered a real thing. Nowadays it's regarded as pseudoscience and been replaced by better theories like population genetics.
The only reason it's still a prominent social construct after it got ridiculed out of real science is because the crybabies in the social sciences wanted to keep using it for their layman tier arguments.
Calling race a "social construct" isn't an attempt to stigmatize the term, it's an attempt to salvage it.

But race is a social construct.
Just like colors
and words
and language
and information
and ethics
and laws
and constitution
and everything else in the world

Colours are not a social construct, the names for the colours and the feelings, ideas, and culutral signifigance we attach to the colours are.
I think you're confusing yourself.

I'd rather name one thing that IS a social construct:
empathy and I tire of SJWs insisting that I should have it for people I do not like.

Not at all. Colors are just labels we attach to different wavelengths. There is no "red" in nature, there is just 650-750 nanometers long wavelength.

Those interactions would exist regardless of a consensus and regardless of if there were no people at all to observe them.
What's with the human centrism?

You misunderstand, anon. There is no guarantee that our understanding of these interactions is correct or complete. Our confidence in our current theory stems from social consensus and an empiricism model for truth.
