As much as you dislike Sargon Putinbot, this is actually a point that Sargon made when arguing against Richard Spencer's ethnostate philosophy.That the alt-right is ridiculous for putting so much stock in race, and that even if they wanted to they'd run into the trouble of properly classifying who is white.

As someone with degrees in molecular biology and genetics I disagree about racism being biological.

"Racism is not genetic" is also false. A sweeping dismissal of the statement is also not academically sound.Babies start to show "likeness affiliation/preference" at very young ages.[1] This is definitely racist. It is far more innocent than the right wing racism we see. It is a self-preservation that has roots directly in tribal preservation and our violent human evolution.[2]
What does this all mean? It means, for example, white babies show a preference for white people. And this comes from self-preservation evolution, not racism. [3]
In early human history, tribal warfare was common enough that it shaped our evolution. Humans are incredibly altruistic but also incredibly violent. [4]

Racism isn't biological because race isn't real. You just showed you didn't get it. If you'd used another term as I suggested in the post following you'd have been fine and you wouldn't be clutching.How can racism exist when race doesn't from any credible Scientist?
Two studies by researchers at the Ontario Institute for Studies in Education (OISE) at the University of Toronto and their collaborators from the US, UK, France and China, show that six- to nine-month-old infants demonstrate racial bias in favour of members of their own race and racial bias against those of other races.Naiqi G. Xiao, Rachel Wu, Paul C. Quinn, Shaoying Liu, Kristen S. Tummeltshammer, Natasha Z. Kirkham, Liezhong Ge, Olivier Pascalis, Kang Lee. Infants Rely More on Gaze Cues From Own-Race Than Other-Race Adults for Learning Under Uncertainty. Child Development, 2017; DOI: 10.1111/cdev.12798

Let me know how your alleles discussion works with infants when you yell at them to stop being racist. 🙂
