There are many cranio-facial traits that separate us Humans from Neanderthals such as our spherical crania and small tucked in face. Just as skull dimensions can be used to divide the Homo genus into different species, they can also be used to divide our species into different races. In a landmark analysis called Cranial Cluster 28 Groups, Harvard anthropologist William W. Howells found that the many skull dimensions of 28 diverse human populations all fit nicely and neatly into just three categories which have historically been known as Negroid, Caucasoid and Mongoloid. In Howell’s tree Negroids would include Africans, Andaman Islanders, and Australoids. Caucasoids would include Caucaoids (duh!) and Amerindians and Mongoloids would include Japanese, Asian, Ainu, Guam, Eskimos and Polynesians:
The above dendrogram should not be confused with a family tree because the cranial distance between populations does not necessarily reflect the time since their ancestors diverged (though there’d be a correlation).
For example Africans and Andaman islanders have virtually no cranial distance even though they have enormous chronological distance (70,000 years since they last shared an ancestral population).
Many people think of races as huge families so they would object to grouping populations that don’t share recent ancestry. However my attitude has always been, it’s not how recently you share a common ancestor, it’s how much of a common ancestor you share.
Unless their similar morphologies evolved independently, Africans and Andaman Islanders clearly share the Negroid phenotype which thus must have pre-dated the ancient African exodus 70,000 years ago.
The White supremacists hate this because they want to claim blacks only left Africa in chains. The Afro-centrists love this because they want to believe blacks were a pioneers who spread as far as Australia.
White supremacists cite DNA to argue that Africans and Australoids are among the most genetically distant populations on the planet, so how dare African take credit for colonizing Australia, but what they don’t understand is that much of our DNA has no impact on our phenotype and serves only as a molecular clock. Any accomplished race will by definition divide into distantly related families because colonizing distant lands for long periods of time is the very definition of evolutionary success, as long as those distantly related families genetically preserve the phenotype of their common ancestor. If we only defined taxa by DNA similarity, then by definition there would be no successful races or species because as soon as you existed or dispersed long enough, neutral DNA (a mere measure of time) would redefine you as a new taxa.
Pumpkin Person 
three main divisions are:
1. those who left africa first.
2. those who left africa second.
3. those who never left africa.
1 is the smallest in population. it includes australoids, melanesians, negritoes.
2 is the largest including whites, “asians”, and native americans.
maybe polynesians are a cross between 1 and 2.
I’ve wondered the same thing. afaict it started in the early to mid 70s. Because blaxploitation? But it didn’t get popular til like the late 80s.
Maybe Billy would know
Oh the racist is back.
Oh the retard is back.
Can you ban rr please?
rr needs some new material
The problem with this is that the first group makes a clade with the Asians in the second one to the exclusion of middle easterners and europeans. Melanesians, Negritos, Australoids and Asians are east Eurasian collectively. Polynesians are a mix of 2 kinds of east Eurasians- Papuan-like and Austronesian-like. Both of these east Eurasians are closer to one another than to Europeans and middle easterners.

There are five races PP (Hardimon, Spencer). “HBDers” (Lynn, Rushton, Templer, Hart, Levin, Jensen) don’t have a race concept.
https://notpoliticallycorrect.me/2019/11/06/hereditarian-reasoning-on-race/
Howell’s analysis finds only 3 major skull morphologies
You should delete your blog and make a new one that has no relation to HBD. It would be vastly more popular than Pumpkin’s because it’s about real science and interesting topics.
I’ve noticed for a while now that any time you and I post about scientific topics the majority of users here are too dumb to understand what we’re talking about. And then when they do chime in, they mistake their ignorance for divergent thinking. It’s kind of sad that the only time they generate discussion is when they’re extremely dumbed down.
rr also has an extremely low moral IQ.
this explains his sudden scientology level anti-racism and his hair and beard.
a really really disgusting example of humanity.
there are as many races as one likes. “race” is a word you fucking low IQ monster.

I disagree. There’s a correct number of races that a species logically divides into, and then a correct number of sub-races that each race subdivides into.
Puppy is wrong for the obvious reason that mixed race people are usually classified by one race phenotypically.
They don’t have a race concept because they don’t need a race concept.
Race is just an americanism for the country’s relevant ethnic groups. An americanism that can later be misapplied to other groups. Groups it was never meant to describe in the first place.
You don’t need to decide whether Armenians are white or not to talk about White vs Black Americans. This is just obvious to everyone neurotypical. Nobody, literally nobody, cares about Hardimon and Spencer.
Races are akin to musical genres imo.
The progression from new wave, to alternative, to grunge isn’t always clear but rock is clearly different from rap.
If races don’t exist because their characteristics aren’t autistically precise enough, neither do musical genres!
what i find fascinating is how we divide a species into races and then sub-races and how we divide music or movies into genres & sub-genres. How do we know how many genres of music there are and how many sub-genres? Is there a right answer or is it all subjective?

“at they don’t understand is that much of our DNA has no impact on our phenotype and serves only as a molecular clock.”
They do understand that, it just doesn’t matter because ancestry is not measured by phenotype similarity.
“If we only defined taxa by DNA similarity, then by definition there would be no successful races or species because as soon as you existed or dispersed long enough, neutral DNA (a mere measure of time) would redefine you as a new taxa.”

Modern scientists and white supremacists define race as a group of people who share recent ancestors. Afrocentrics and I define race as a group of people who preserve the phenotype of common ancestors.

What am I not understanding?
“The dendrogram in my article.”
I want a link to the actual analysis doofus.
“Modern scientists”
Modern science doesn’t recognize race as an apt biological categorization.
“What am I not understanding?”
Clearly everything. You don’t even seem to understand how the molecular clock is calculated, which is evidenced by that little sequence of “logic” you just barfed.
Humans share 99% of their DNA with chimps, Neutral DNA doesn’t stack in such a way that it renders the Genome completely different from the basal population.

This is the closest I can find right now:

some recognize subspecies.

But crocodiles are much closer in neutral DNA to birds than they are to other reptiles (unless you redefine reptile to include birds)
Chimps are much closer in neutral DNA to humans than they are to apes (unless you redefine ape to include humans)
So classifying populations by neutral DNA contradicts morphological classifications.
“This is the closest I can find right now:”
That’s not good enough
Do you actually not read the shit you cite as evidence for the claims you make???
“some recognize subspecies.”
Yeah but I don’t think sub species is the same as race, and even sub species is shaky as hell.
“So classifying populations by neutral DNA contradicts morphological classifications.”
LOL, why am I supposed to care? Why does this have to line up with you preconceived bias?
I’m not measuring morphological similarity I’m measuring ancestry
The problem with defining taxa by monophyletic ancestry is that any successful taxa will subdivide into more than one clade. So we can no longer speak of Homo Erectus as this single successful species that lasted 1.9 million years and spanned multiple continents because by subdividing into different regions, Homo Erectus gets split into 3 different species (Africa, Georgia, Asia):
melo and rr are human-monkey hybrids in some laboratory typing.
It’s actually extremely difficult picturing someone as dumb as you or Philo and how they would function in day to day life.
If RR and I are monkeys than you’re just an amoeba that thinks his mind is equivalent to the universe.
Fuerst (2015) showed that there is no academic consensus on the existence of races
https://www.researchgate.net/figure/1-Survey-results-concerning-the-existence-of-human-biological-races_tbl1_301293756
And even if there were, it wouldn’t be worth shit because of the academic bias that exists today, post-WW2 anthropology took an anti-racist turn, old theories were rejected and the influence of the Boas filled the entire field of nerdy shit.
In one of the surveys given to physical anthropologists in the 1970s they found that Jewish anthropologists largely did not believe in race as a biologically valid concept (a clearly leftist view) while the opposite was true for Gentile anthropologists.
https://www.jstor.org/stable/274899?seq=1
As Provine (1973) has pointed out, many geneticists who believed that crossbreeding was harmful before the war believed that there was no evidence of harmful effects after the war, without any significant intervention study.
https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/4583525/
In an academy where there is an overrepresentation of leftists, especially in areas like anthropology, it is quite obvious that there will be a bias towards racial denial, due to ideological influences. This is particularly discussed in Kaszycka 2009
https://anthrosource.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.1111/j.1548-1433.2009.01076.x
denying race is like denying the validity of IQ tests. totally UN-necessary to maintaining an egalitarian worldview.
1. because IQ tests are valid doesn’t mean they test someone’s innate ability or worth.
2. “race” is a word. it has been used in ways some dislike, so rather than use it to mean what they don’t (or shouldn’t) dislike, they say “this word doesn’t exist.” it’s retarded.
so the reality is both the hereditists/HBDers and a lot of psychology profs AND the l ron hubbard cult [redacted by pp, aug 17, 2020]…
BOTH are wrong.
duh chroof be like alway’ more subtle dan y’all be thinkin’.
where did your ancestors live 6,000, 10,000, whatever years AGO.
the number of years AGO determines how fine the division is.
100,000 years ago all of our ancestors lived in [redacted by pp, aug 17, 2020].
but starting with the “age of discovery” this OBVIOUSLY becomes meaningless.

Hi PP, could you please explain your reasoning to the last question on your math based intelligence test, I scored 145+ on the wisc at age 11 and was not able to figure it out. I concluded that the figure given for the max height in class is supposed to provide me with a surrogate measure for it’s size, I can speculate on further reasoning but none have yielded the correct answer, I did brute force the correct answer though but am unable to devise a logical framework for producing it. cheers
if height, speed, practice & coordination all equally determine basketball performance, then each explains 25% of the variance (since 100% of the variance divided by 4 variables equals 25%). The square root of 25% is 0.5, so each variable correlates 0.5 with basketball performance. Thus the difference in height between the tallest & shortest will only be 0.5 the height difference between the best and worst basketball player.
Excellent article. Nice to see bravery in terms of stating things as they make the most sense. Thank you.
Thank you very much!
You are welcome. 😎
another stupid sockpuppet name from peepee.
she’d score a 0 on the WISC “naming sockpuppets” subtest.
lol it’s not me
Wow. What a hate-filled response. Sounds like puppet-speak about puppets. How odd. 😎
Also this is a response to melo on the last thread but when you said the media doesn’t hate trump I had to laugh at how unaware you are of everything.
LOL, You really believe the jabs the media takes at Trump are serious attempts at lowering his electability?
How gullible can you be? It’s only done so that autists like you can sit their and jerk off to your master.
“tRuMps a SoCiAl GeNiuS!1!”

I just want to ask – why are you so dumb? Did you hit your head on something when you were younger?
LOL, but I’m smarter than you, and everyone here knows it.
i don’t.
But clearly you are dumb enough to believe that Putin is not corrupt nor would he use his power to influence other countries.
We don’t have socialized healthcare because retards like you aren’t euthanized at birth.
you are dumb enough to believe that Putin is not corrupt nor would he use his power to influence other countries
you are dumb AND a…
LIAR!
Lol whatever you say faggot.
Keep jacking off to Hegel.
can you guess what that country is melo?
Carleton S Coon would be turning in his grave.
Gears 5 is a great game. Really enjoyable campaign. Because the standard of games has increased so much over the past few years a game like this gets passed over as typical and not worthy of praise. But it deserves it.
I was reading an earlier post from puppy on why high IQ people are not always rich and puppy once again stumbled upon the truth in his inimical way when he suggested that smart people like solving problems and making money isn’t a ‘problem’ per se.
I realised this in that 2 year period I was living on welfare. All I needed was my playstation and pc and some books.
I looked through my PS trophy cabinet and it says ive played 95 games over a 2-3 year period.
It just goes to show how productive you can be if you put your mind to it.
Autist!
i like playing cops and robbers irl. i’ve won every time.

LOADED LARPs as a pakistani even though he was born in sri lanka to tamil dalit parents. sad.
Werent you born to a daughter and father? I vividly recall you telling us that your grandfather had raped your mother…or was that Ted Bundy I dont remember.
More likely to be truer for you though honestly.
