Adaptation is not “race”.
Hell the Enlish used to refer to the the “Irish race” and Ameicans used to talk about the Chinese “race”. Kenyans are blak but run marathons and West Africans play wide receiver in the NFL. They are both black and African. That is adaptation, not “race”. One has huge lung capacity while the other has longer achilles tendons and quick twitch muscle. Then there are Mexican Indians in the mountains of central Mexico who eat beans and corn and run in 150 mile contests through the mountains. That is not a race either. People built square buildings in northern climes to support the snow load in winter. They had to make tools and plan for the change in seasons. They had to calcuate mathematically as well. It was a matter of survival. Still that is not race. That again is adaptation—both mentally and physically.

Actually, the real racists are LEFTISTS who grant affirmative action preferences based on “race”—a purely political abstraction posited to grant largess to a subjectively chosen group.

Interesting take.
preferences are being given to those who’ve adapted more physically than mentally.
what could possibly go wrong?
