  No doubt even back then there were homos on both sides of the equation clutching their pearls and wailing about racial purity. (While not being so principled that they would put any effort into avoiding the benefits offered by such blending.)

    Afaict, a good part of racism comes from the fact that human brain automatically labels people different from you as enemy. I assume this was a very useful strategy for millenia, if you saw a person not belonging to your tribe/nation that probably meant armed conflict a decent chunk of the time. This applies to any kind of difference: clothing, culture, neurodivergence etc. I live in a country with zero racism against black people (all the racism is reserved for immigrants which only differ by culture, not color) yet you can tell black people are still a bit left-out in many social settings. Due to black population being very low, people rarely ever see a black person here. When they see one, for the brain it's an unknown/unfamiliar, and that means potential danger at the subconscious / first impression level. To put it simply, people get weirded out. Ofc, once you get to know them that goes away. (This is not to condone conscious racism: goyim, plantation workers and all.)

  We're a mutt species, inbreeding frequently, all descendants of Australopithecus, hooking up with second and third cousins. It's incest all the way down.
