Dan Bongino Pictures | Rotten Tomatoes

 

 

This man.....Dan Bongino....is an Italian American.

Is the Pope "blacker" than him????



Nicholas TURTURRO : Biography and movies

This man...Nick Turturro...is also Italian American.

Who looks "blacker"....him or that Pope with mixed grand parents???
 

 

 

Check out  the second word in the above paragraph. The reason you posted the pictures was to show how the Italians in question "looked".

Interestingly enough Pope Leo was born in Chicago , but apparently at one time in his childhood, he lived in Dolton, Illinois, which is now a predominately black suburb that just recently made headlines because its black female mayor was indicted for corruption  and was just defeated for re-election by a black male.

The Catholic church is rumored to be interested in making his former residence a shrine. This house is vacant and is up for sale.

 

True

They claim his maternal GRANDPARENTS were Mulatto.....

True

And since race is about Politics(social power) and Economics(financial power).

In the US both historically and currently for the most part he would be considered and treated as black once his ancestry is publicly recognized and accepted.

First off every human being have African ancestry

Yes they are many Europeans with African Ancestry....not necessarily blacker ancestry.

Italians were not always considered white....and so were treated differently.

To have Black Ancestry you must be a descendant of Enslaved Africans....Continental Africans who were colonized but not enslave are Africans.

No.

The reason I posted those pictures was in response to you implying that "no Italians" are Blacker than the current Pope.

Those pictures of Italians...with strong African features...proves that some indeed are.

Lets wait and see if Pope Leo XIV self-identifies as a Black man. I seriously doubt that he will.😎

@Pioneer1 yeah, yeah, yeah, you're just doing  what what you usually do in your desperate deviousness. I didn't imply that no Italians are blacker than the current pope.  I said if, as you stated,  they're blacker than the current Pope, they are not fully Italian and furthermore were probably in the same category as the Pope.  

And no more of your demands will be met. I refuse to waste anymore time splitting hairs on this issue.

You do realize most ADOS have European, or so called "white" ancestry, right?  You have in the past call people who to your reckoning are white, when they are ethnically Black. What makes your reasoning problematic is that you reject people who claim a Black ethnicity because don't like the way they look.

I don't believe he will either, and I hope he doesn't.
We don't need this "one drop" garbage getting more attention than it has to and spreading around the planet influencing how other non-Black people may start categorizing themselves.


Especially when they recognize the benefits of being considered Black now and in the future.

I didn't imply that no Italians are blacker than the current pope.  I said --

 

Wait, hold on...HERE'S what you said:

"If the Pope's maternal grand parents are mulatto, then there arent any Italians who are more black than him. "


Your ONLY criteria for no Italians being more Black than the Pope was if both his maternal grand parents were mulatto
...and they were.

So you basically said that no Italians were Blacker than the Pope.

 

 

if, as you stated,  they're blacker than the current Pope, they are not fully Italian and furthermore were probably in the same category as the Pope.  


....and what do you mean by "fully Italian"????


 

*Message To The Young Black Men Lurking:

After demanding that she do so, this 90+ year old woman said: 

"And no more of your demands will be met. I refuse to waste anymore time splitting hairs on this issue. "

In other words, she actually DID meet some of my demands!
Which goes to show you that no matter how young YOU are or how old the WOMAN is...a man is a man!
Amen?
(pun intended...lol)

It tells you that if you're a man who stands on business...she has no choice BUT to submit.
Bow down.
And concede to your demands!

Now you boys take that lesson with you through out your lives and you'll have every woman calling you "daddy" in no time!

Bingo.  @Pioneer1 the key word here is implicit.
 

I'll give you another "key word": STRAWMAN

An intelligent exchange should be over what each party ACTUALLY SAID, not over what they "implied" or what you WANT them to say but they won't....so you'll just make up something and pin it on them anyway to have something valid to argue against.



Where did you get this definition of the Black race? 
 

What definition?
I don't recall offering any definitions except to say that Black is Black.

 


You do realize most ADOS have European, or so called "white" ancestry, right?  You have in the past call people who to your reckoning are white, when they are ethnically Black.

ADOS is an ethnicity but Black isn't an ethnicity, it's a race.
Race IS about genetics....which often includes looks.

"One Drop" is the standard and most popular historically used metric to decide delineate and define race....in the Racist/Racism World view.

We can acknowledge it, but we don't have to accept it.



Which and or What lie?
 

That "one drop" of Black blood or any Black ancestry makes one Black.

That's false.
 



No....not Racial.

Both Blacks and Whites did not know they were Black or White till they Arrive in the West...and became Aware of the 'Ideology of Racism that governs Western Society
.

Seeing as how Whites went out of their way to leave Europe and go to Africa to get people to enslaved, they obviously saw a difference between themselves and Africans...regardless as to the terms they may have used for those differences.

Yes they did.....we Africans are dark and they are pale etc....

The word slave was first applied to Europeans of the Slavic ethnicity..

Romans enslaved the Britons at one point....The Britons/British Indentured the Irish and Welsh

The Ottomans and The Arabs enslaved Europeans and Africans

What's the difference....in your opinion...between RACE and ETHNIC GROUP?

Race is a social Construct externally imposed....based on phenotype and place of origin - esp skin color hair texture and physical features.

Ethnicity is self imposed group identity of people who share a common culture heritage  history and often share common set of blood lines(kinship)

There is no biological basis for race....

 

Are Republicans and Democrats different races?

Is there a French race or Spanish race?

Does the difference in eye or hair color signify racial differences?

@Pioneer1, per the definition cited above, "groups that humans are often divided into..." is the reason many people refer to race as a social construct. 

 

Early social scientists assigned race on the following basic skin colors...white, black, red, yellow and brown.

 

Other than Black or white, most folks don't refer to themselves by their skin color i.e. race.😎

Meaning number 4  from the link you so graciously provided states the following where in even one membership in a specific profession can be categories as a race

below the definition you will see some examples of Context and Uses.

 

 : a group of people sharing some habit or characteristic (such as profession or belief)

… the whole race of politicians put together.Jonathan Swift
 
The Apostles, though they were fishers too, were of the solemn race of sea-fishers …Henry David Thoreau
 
… the race of domestic clowns or jesters, maintained in the houses of the wealthy …Sir Walter Scott
 
… to become a Dissenter seemed to him identical with choosing God instead of mammon. That race of Dissenters is extinct in these days, when opinion has got far ahead of feeling …George Eliot
 
… our daughters haunt the town as if searching for something they missed, walking up beside the rocks with books in their arms like a race of little nuns.John Updike

Right now I'm not SAYING anything....lol....I'm typing.

 

 

 


How do you know it isn't?

 

How do you know it IS?
We can play this game all day.

 

 

 

 

 

After all according to science all human originated out of Africa or from the Black Race

 

But according to them, the racial changes were as a result of MUTATION...not DEFECTION.

I may be in error however it is my CURRENT understanding that mutation is caused when NORMAL genes that be recessive for some reason become dominant and that particular trait becomes a dominant trait; where as DEFECTION is when there is something wrong with the gene itself causing a change.

 

 

 


Thats not the same as saying....Race is not a social construct

 

No, when you say that you don't accept the idea of races....that covers IT ALL.
You didn't make any specifications.

 

 

 

 

 

I said it is a social construct

 

You say that AFTER the fact that you initially said you didn't accept the idea....period.

 

 

 


Humans are 99% the same....in short one cannot distinguish between African/Blacks and Europeans/whites genetically.

of that 1% difference....the widest variation is among Africans


Yeah?
So what does that have to do with race being BIOLOGICAL and GENETIC when you said the dictionary no longer supports that idea?

Because I would like to know how it fits in your idea of Races having to do with biology and ancestry....
especially since politician are black white and other...

 

It DOESN'T fit 1 a  definition of RACE.
But it DOES fit the 4th definition which is now considered archaic:

Thank you we are making progress.

 

 

1a. any one of the groups that humans are often divided into based on physical traits regarded as common among people of shared ancestry

 

What does Regard means a protective interest 

Regarded does not mean true or factual beyond a group or person's self interest....curated construct/concept

In reality there is no truth that what is referred to as Races has anything in common that is exclusive themselves as regards to human physical traits....Black/African has all human traits - all humans are Africans

Defect is a strong word with negative connotation....Change or Variation is nuetral - 

A defect in gene expression and or production is a mutation....in this case melanin

There is Only one Race....that is the Human Race - in  which there is many slight variations in phenotype.

Most obvious variation being color....colour wise no human being is Black white red or yellow - though it appears as if they are

They are really just different shades and hues of Brown(amount of melanin) or amount of exposure to sun adaptation.

 

I recognize that  Races is a social construct....

In Racist places and spaces.....especial for you and people like you

Who believe and accept race as a biological and genetic fact....I will use the terms race and races

So if I use the word/s Black race and or white race race or races it is to facilaitate communication  with people who live racialized or Racist world view and accept as biology the idea of Race/s as a form of speciation of humanity

There is Only one Race....that is the Human Race 

 

And in what dictionary did you get that definition or reference?


In Merriam-Webster it says:

Quote


https://www.merriam-webster.com › dictionary › race
 
 any one of the groups that humans are often divided into based on physical traits regarded as common among people of shared ancestry

 


One of the GROUPS...PLURAL.
Meaning there are MORE THAN ONE races.

 

 

 

 

.especial for you and people like you

 

You mean people who READ the actual definition of things instead of making up definitions based on their wishful thinking????

 

 

 


Who believe and accept race as a biological and genetic fact

 

Apparently I'm not the only one because according to the DICTIONARY

One of the definitions of race:

Quote


3 biology : a group within a species that is distinguishable (as morphologically,
genetically, or behaviorally) from others of the same species


https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/race 

 


Literally BOTH the terms....biology and genetically...that you questioned, are actually used IN the definition of race!



....I will use the terms race and rac
So if I use the word/s Black race and or white race race or races it is to facilaitate communication  with people who live racialized or Racist world view and accept as biology the idea of Race/s as a form of speciation of humanity

 

In other words, since it's part of REALITY...you'll go ahead and entertain the terms?

I appreciate that.
Thank you for keeping the wishful thinking (that all of humanity is apparently part of one big umbrella African race) to a minimum.

No, my analogy was on point.

Humans = Ice Cream
Races = Flavors
 

Your belief is that the OBVIOUSLY different flavors of ice cream shouldn't be labeled or even recognized.

Your argument is that because almost all ice cream is made up of milk, cream, and sugar which constitute over 90% of it's ingredients -then the different flavors shouldn't be recognized or categorized.

Maybe the "ethnicity" analogy would be more fitting for the different ways that ice cream is actually MADE.
However the "race" analogy" is more fitting for how the different varieties of ice cream LOOK, and what they TASTE and SMELL like.

@Pioneer1  do continue reject the science in favor of your personal experience?


According to Merriam-Webster the definition of Race:

Quote

May 1, 2025 — : any one of the groups that humans are often divided into based on physical traits regarded as common among people of shared ancestry.
 

3 biology : a group within a species that is distinguishable (as morphologically,
genetically, or behaviorally) from others of the same species
 

https://www.merriam-webster.com › dictionary › race 

 

 

 

Those definitions for race were valid as late as May 1st of this year.
So atleast one of the definitions of race IS scientific as it deals with biology and genetics.

I'm sure those who compiled those definitions didn't JUST rely on their personal experiences, lol.

No, it's the FLAVORING in ice cream that gives each type it's distinctive flavors.
Just like it's the COLORING that gives each of it it's distinctive color unless it's just plain white.




 
I call them ethnicities because what causes the differences are added or in other words environmental impacts.

Races is a social construct and has no basis in genetics.
 

I just showed you that race IS genetic.
Ethnicity is more of a social construct than race because as you just said ethnicity is often impacted by the ENVIRONMENT; where as you're BORN in a particular race regardless as to the environment.
 



One cannot differentiate one so called race from the other with any scientific definiteness....
 

You don't NEED "scientific definiteness"; you can usually LOOK at people and tell their racial differences.

You can't look at these two men and tell what their ETHNCITIES are but you can definitely tell what RACE they are....

The different flavors or colors do not make them not ice cream....because all ice cream has flavor.
 

And????

They still ice cream.....all ice cream is still ice cream regardless of the flavor.

If it had no flavor it would be....ice shaved ice or frozen slushie snow cone ice

The cream provide both texture and flavor...What you call ice cream flavor is what makes ice cream ice cream - it is in every ice cream
 

No, it's the FLAVORING in ice cream that gives each type it's distinctive flavors.
Just like it's the COLORING that gives each of it it's distinctive color unless it's just plain white.

 it is still ice cream

I call them ethnicities because what causes the differences are added or in other words environmental impacts.

Races is a social construct and has no basis in genetics.

I just gave you my link as proof....that there is only one race genetically.

Sciences states that they are one race genetically...

The differences you are observing are ethnically and or socially constructed

Are the women above of different races?

Just like all humans are still humans regardless of race.

 

 


I just gave you my link as proof....that there is only one race genetically.

 

And I just gave you MY proof that there are MULTIPLE races.
So I guess it's about which source we CHOOSE to believe.

The hell it does......

This is a MEDICAL (scientific) journal:

The Emergence of the Racial Disparity in U.S. Breast-Cancer Mortality

 

In the 1980s, two medical interventions were widely implemented in the United States for breast-cancer management — mammography screening and adjuvant endocrine therapy — and racial disparities in access to these interventions, as well as in their effects, probably precipitated the divergence in mortality.2 Black women are more likely than White women to lack health insurance or to have inadequate coverage, which has limited their access to mammography screening and adversely affected therapeutic decision making. In the 1980s, for example, mammography-screening rates were substantially lower among Black women than among White women, although the rates are now similar.2
 

 Yet from 1992 to 2016, the incidence of HR-negative breast cancer decreased among women of all races in the United States, and there was considerable variation in the rate of decline among racial groups and among women of the same race from different geographic regions.

So I don't know what YOU'RE talking about.
Science CLEARLY acknowledges multiple races!

...are NOT "socially constructed".

They are NATURAL and are determined by GENETICS.

Exactly...

There is no genetic basis for Races among humans....

So I don't know what YOU'RE talking about.

Your ability to comprehend and understand is severely lacking

so let me quote from your quote post and try to help you understand what you are reading by ask some basic questions.

"and racial disparities in access to these interventions, as well as in their effects, probably precipitated the divergence in mortality.2"

What does the paper says caused the divergence or disparities?

The divergence in mortality is not caused by races but by access to interventions

" Black women are more likely than White women to lack health insurance or to have inadequate coverage, which has limited their access to mammography screening and adversely affected therapeutic decision making."

 

According to the paper what led to adverse therapeutic decision?

What is meant by Adverse therapeutic decision?

 

"In the 1980s, for example, mammography-screening rates were substantially lower among Black women than among White women, "

Why would one group of women experience lower screening rates?

What could be the results of lower screening for women suggested by the paper?

 

"the incidence of HR-negative breast cancer decreased among women of all races in the United States, and there was considerable variation in the rate of decline among racial groups and among women of the same race from different geographic regions."

 

If women from the same racial groups are having considerable variation in results what could cause that?

 

In Short the problem is not race but racism.

You mean like those two women below belonging to two different races genetically....
