@Pioneer1 you need simple answers sometimes the truth is just more complicated. You want to really try to understand by looking at a sentence or two from the dictionary definition of one form of the word. I read all the definitions and I read the articles it pointed to for more information context. Since I know you don't like to probe very deeply into subjects I'll share one of the links https://www.britannica.com/topic/race-human why don't you read that entire article it explains race pretty clearly. if you don't come away with a different understanding then it is what it is. Again these are your sources not mine. Finally, I see one really profound difference between you and I. I felt about race as you do now, But once I read the current information I easily put away my prior beliefs. You on the other hand seemingly dig deeper, go through linguistic contortions to "win" a the argument. It is a religious battle for you, facts, logic reason, science -- none of it matters to you.

Chev I am not one that believes in Colorism on any level, but we need to address this issue and not deter from it just because of White Supremacist. Exactly. Just because White Supremacists acknowledge racial differences, then does that mean we should NOT? Even Satan will tell SOME truth while mixing it up with falsehood for deception. Doesn't mean we shouldn't acknowledge a truth thing. Troy Wouldn't it be better to use ethnicity nationality or even religion to explain differences in people? Religion and ethnicity ARE already used...in various degrees....to explain differences in people. They just aren't the ONLY categories used. You're muddying the waters...... Your complaint started off with the EXISTENCE of different races, and then you go into how it's a waste of time to classify one's self and how the differences are reinforced and then how we should instead classify ourselves based on ethnicity and religion instead. None of it disproves the existence of racial differences. It proves your DISLIKE of the acknowledgement of those differences...but they don't disprove the fact that those differences exist. for example claims he has all this proof of scientific evidence for race but he cannot produce any evidence of any test that one can administer to determine one's race. Lol, I can post scientific articles that support the fact that there are different races all day and all night............... This is a scientific article that CLEARLY admits that racial differences exist. Science DOES acknowledge racial differences.
