When you choose your opinions so that they conform to popular politics, you're at risk of getting contorted into contradictions just to keep having the "right" beliefs. This research says stress causes genetic differences in subsequent generations. So if it's the cause of modern black poverty and violence, it would mean black people are genetically susceptible to being poor and violent. If you consider poverty and violence as inferior qualities, then it says black people are genetically inferior to white people, which is so incompatible with popular culture that you'll be be ostracized for even mentioning the idea!
- spraak 8y agoI think you're reaching too far there
- lopmotr 8y agoSorry for assuming your motivation. Do you agree with my conclusion about blacks being genetically inferior? Is there a mistake in my logic? Perhaps being RNA, not DNA makes it not quite the same thing?
- owebmaster 8y agoIf the main objective of DNA and genes is to spread itself, black people still have some obvious genetics advantage, historically. And it doesn't seem to be changing, much the opposite.
