“Race is a social construct”

Shows what deep inroads that cultural Marxism has made that this ridiculous mantra is being advanced on.a supposedly conservative web site.

Of course race is real. DNA is helping us understand it better all the time.

OK, I should've said "race as defined by the government."

Just saying that a Hispanic from Spain has far more in common with a Frenchman on the opposite side of the Pyrenees than with a Honduran of mainly Mayan descent. An Argentine of Italian descent has far more in common with Italy than with a Peruvian of mainly Incan descent.

So, yes, it has meaning for DNA and ancestry tracing purposes. But for governmental division purposes, it is indeed a social construct . . . and that's the context being discussed on this thread.
