In honor of her birthday today, thought I’d post this fun add from 1991 when streets would literally go deserted at 4 pm because everyone was rushing home to watch her syndicated show which ran from 1986 to 2011:
Happy birthday Oprah!

I thought Oprah was a type of vegetable….
If she was I wouldn’t eat it.
Happy birthday for this super special big brained human being!!! We love you!!! I pray for GODX to keep giving you all the happiness of the world!!

You know how closeted gay guys usually have a “beard”? I feel worshipping a black woman who happens to be successful is the racist HBD equivalent.
Insightful analogy but wrong nonetheless. My oprah fascination is real, not some beard to hide racism.
To quote biographer kitty kelley “I can’t think of anyone in the World more fascinating than Oprah”
I cant think of anyone more fascinating than you.
I am not trying to hit on you.
its cause of the long head innit?
i think your oprah fascination is ungrounded…you say she has a large head for a black person and successful so she must be intelligent…do you not think that there are people (any race) with larger heads than her who are not 1 percent as accomplished…if there are are you saying that the largest head among blacks is the same size as the largest head among asians? and what are those implications…if not given the population of china nd europe, where most large heads are , why was the successful one from africa….you also have to understand that head size is also just a variable…theres neuron density, connectivity and a whole lot more…if africans suffer in all these departments then even a diasporan with the same size (or even smaller) head than oprah would likely , taking all variations into account, be more intelligent than her
Hahahaha
What a bizarre and likely wrong observation. Majority of unclose gay guys are not overbearded. If so ortodox jews would be… Maybe it’s reflects your personal experience??
Why not just say
“Oprah’s obsession among straight men are extremely rare… and specially this female-ish kind of”
That’s why i always thought PP is a woman.
Beard is a metaphor used for gay men who have a girlfriend or wife to look straight. They are using the woman to hide their sexuality much like a beard hides your face. He’s not saying gay men literally have more facial hair.
Jeez How creative the untermenschen can be isnt??
Well documented the amount of economists that envy physics made me wonder why. If they wanted to do more math, why not just study math? Doesn’t make sense unless you consider the possibility that most academic economists have some form of autism.
Calling people autistic is a way for dumb people to feel smart. You can’t mock anyone at math because math has definitive answers but economic theories like libertarianism are so untestable that one can belittle them with impunity.
People envy what they don’t have/have little. Less intelligent envy the more intelligent. Not to say economists are dumb, but the average economist’s GRE English + Math performance is like a leveled-down version of the average physics major score on the same tests. Razib Khan made a post about it back in 2012.
“Economists are rather like duller physicists. Which makes sense since many economists are washed out or bored physicists. And political science and international relations people don’t stack up very well against the economists. Perhaps this is the source of the problem whereby economists think they’re smarter than they are? Some humility might be instilled if economics was always put in the same building as physics.”
https://www.discovermagazine.com/the-sciences/classicists-are-smart
People envy the rich and good reason. Most people have a very personal concept of what intelligence is.
People who most envy other’s intelligences, specially creativity, is another smart people.
Are physicists really all that richer than economists? And if it is about wealth, physicists wouldn’t be on top of the econominist envy list.

Thats funny. Im reading a book now by an anthropologist called ‘bullshit jobs’. Basically the main thesis is that most white collar work is make up work because the elite don’t want to just give people handouts. He talks about how unnatural the process of modern work is to a human. Its a great book so far.

In my personal experience academic economists have terrible reasoning skills. They sound like RR actually. I would be shocked if they were personally wealthy and whether it had anything to do with their academic specialty.
IQists never understand that IQ “measure” quantitative OR “quantify”… It’s a sloppy way to measure quality. Among people from the same IQ range lots of them have poor intellectual quality oftentimes related with moral quality too.
Wonder if academics are paid differently at universities depending on their specialism?
If Trump inherited $400m in the 80s, based on the asset inflation we’ve had thanks to the Fed, I’d say thats the equivalent of around $2b today. Forbes says he’s worth $2.5b.
I strongly predict he could double his net worth over the next 10 years if he monetizes his fame/prestige. I mean, there are people out there that would die for him.
He’s worshipped by opioid America but elites are abandoning him in droves so his value as a luxury brand is tanking. The fastest way for him to make money would be to go on tour or start a syndicated talk show though those are much less profitable today than in Oprah’s day
[redacted by pp, Jan 30, 2020]. trump’s brand was never luxury for americans. he’s always been despised by other rich americans. his brand is for foreigners. AND he was already famous. a trumo hotel in moscow on hong kong will do fine.
Other rich people laughed at him but they would still stay at his hotels or play at his golf courses. Now his brand is toxic but it may recover
$400 million in 1985 is more like $962 million today:
https://www.usinflationcalculator.com
But staying on the Forbes 400 requires more than keeping up with inflation. It only took $100 million to make the the Forbes 400 in 1983. It now takes over $2 billion. Advances in technology have generated new fortunes on a scale old money is too dumb to understand let alone keep up with & midgets like putin are too inferior to compete at that level
Well you bring up a very contentious issue about how you measure inflation. I think the CPI is not a reasonable one for someone with high net worth assets. The forbes requirement going up 20 times shows a lot of things, and one of them is that someone worth $400m in 1985 is roughly worth so many billion relative to others in the wealth distribution. A better way would to be to compare the exact percentile in 1985 and the exact percentile today and judge inflation that way as a relative phenomenon.
At the top of the Forbes 400 it’s even more striking. In 1982 $2 billion made you the richest American (according to Forbes). In 2020 you needed $179 billion to hold that title.
Of course the population increased & Forbes got better & better at finding hidden wealth both making the list more competitive every year, but those factors only partly explain it
Actually a good example of this type of inflation measurement is used in piketty’s book comparing what a country estate was worth nominally in the 1700s vs today and judging inflation that way. I think this is also valid. The main point is that once you get above a certain point, you have to ask more about purchasing power rather than prices per se.
Someone didn’t score highly on the verbal comprehension index, unlike me!
Pumpkin, is there any data showing how poorer folk compare when it comes to VCI and PRI discrepancy? If so, can you link it?

“Girls” in western nations has been overexposed to “irrealistic beauty standards” by “media” (market//progpaganda)…

It’s a shame that patriotism is virtually non-existent among the elite today. There was some genuine patriotism post 9/11, but the only vestiges of it today are extremely perverted and only further undermine Core America: “I HATE KNOT SEAS!!!!111! DIVERSITY IS R STRENGFF.”
Poor white boy… elites NEVER were really patriotic. So embarassing
Pretend to be is not the same as be…
Elites don’t change. They just adapted to new world order where they will can have a beach house in Maldivas…
Ever since the revolutionary war, elites have generally been much less patriotic than ordinary americans. That’s true. Most of the Morgans and the Vanderbilts probably didn’t give 2 shits about their country.
But there were some notable exceptions (Carnegie), which really don’t exist anymore.
I think this change is most pronounced among average upper class people who aren’t/weren’t necessarily hard core oil barons or financiers. The first CEO of Lowe’s Hardware, and his children, was probably very patriotic. The current guy almost certainly pushes the stuff I mentioned above.
In other words, there are no more Henry Fords.
”Ever since the revolutionary war”
No.
Ever-ever…
the gamestop saga will continue until:
1. the short interest falls to < 50%.
2. the shorts prove they have more money than the short squeezers.

3. BUT these games should never happen.
of course it could be the shorts have bought calls to cap their losses.
the shorts should’ve taken their losses and then let the retards eat their retardation.
I think Charles Murray is right that a combination of IQ and movement out of small towns explains a lot of the disconnect between elites and the masses.
Most gentile elites today were born in elite enclaves and have had very little exposure to common people. This wasn’t really the case 75 years ago.
Jews don’t have this problem because the vast majority of them are capable of working white collar jobs. And they’re just naturally more ethnocentric.
Charles Murray’s book coming apart has proved incredibly prophetic. He was the first to see that lower class whites like Mug of Pee would become a huge problem
”Jews don’t have this problem because the vast majority of them are capable of working white collar jobs”
Or they are on avg disconnected from common people too..
Lower class white gentiles are pretty ethnocentric
Less so than lower class people of other races though. Low class whites in southern california have pretty much become honorary Mexicans. A decent number of southern hillbillies marry blacks.
I have a hard time imagining Yoni Lipschitz from Staten Island wanting mulatto babies.
A decent number of southern hillbillies marry blacks.
That’s because there are so many blacks of the same social class. Not as many upper class blacks for upper class whites to marry & because of affirmative action/regression the IQ gap between upper class whites & upper class blacks is too large
and upper class whites arguably care the least about their poor coethnics than any other race.

How come Indian immigrants I meet speak decent English, but all the Hispanic ones either refuse or are just god awful?
Is it IQ?
India was a british colony.
Oh yeah. That makes sense
Indians actually have a much lower IQ. I suspect the reason why Indians can speak better English is because its an Indo-European language. Different populations probably have different variations in what languages they speak due to selection pressures or whatever.
Indians & hispanics have similar IQ when reared in the same environment though Indians in the U.S. are highly selected for IQ
Spanish is a hindo-european too
I know there many english-speakers who complain about avg indian accent and often not so well spoken and written english. I’m not talking about myself lol
English has been huge influence by romance languages specially due french norman invasion in Britain and consequent elite replacement in the early medieval era and by latin influence on religion issues and in science specially about inventing scientific terms. It’s basically a hybridized language.
Also earlier split of indian and proto european languages make, by logic, easier for hispanic to learn english than indian. The only reason indians are better to learn english than hispanic is because it is one of official languages of their country, milions of them who live in cities are exposed since childhood and they are also more likely to travel abroad than indians who live in countryside and probably less exposed to english.

yes. although I wouldn’t be surprised if a lot of those anti-vaxx protestors were black/latino. they seem to be the most skeptical abt the vaccine
Yes, i see. Here in brazil, i have seen lots of unmasked nonwhite in the streets, making aglomerations and so on and probably many among anti vaxx too but i think we tend to debate throughout internet with the smarter of far righters out there and this maybe have created a distorted image, speaking for myself, about the avg far right winger.
Towatch
the gme drama will continue until the shorts tap out or bring more money than the longs (which would be a lot of money as the story has been promoted so heavily). but why are far otm calls still on offer? if i were a market maker i’d only sell puts.
GME short interest now around 60 % of float.
it may be no regulation is necessary and the shorts will simply never gang up to the tune of > 100% or even 50% ever again.
but as long as the short interest is so high and there’s a “crowd sourced short squeeze” the profits are unlimited.
but the crowd sourced short squeeze is just as douchey as the > 100% shorts.
snl made fun of this…this is NOT “investing”…this is screwing people you dislike with a technicality…crowd sourced short sqeeze is legal.

the GOP was able to turn the solid south to blue because race and dem anti-white idpol. both parties are just race hustlers for votes and their constituency is the same. nb, their consituency is not their voters.
as whites’ proportion of the population has fallen and the bottom 50% of americans of all races have seen their living standards decline since 1970 and after the total corporate takeover of the democrat party starting with clinton, poor whites/rednecks/etc. have been used as a scapegoat for the total incompetence and psychopathy of america’s ruling elite.

From the guardian
They were billed as a “middle-class miracle” but according to a new book Donald Trump’s $1.5tn tax cuts have helped billionaires pay a lower rate than the working class for the first time in history.
In 2018 the richest 400 families in the US paid an average effective tax rate of 23% while the bottom half of American households paid a rate of 24.2%, University of California at Berkeley economists Emmanuel Saez and Gabriel Zucman calculate in their new book, The Triumph of Injustice.
i know that peepee.
trump was a conman.
his sole legislative accomplishment was tax cuts for billionaires.
the dem party of 25 years ago was a poor white party AND a civil rights party.
Dems used to be the party of the poor & minorities & now they’re just the party of minorities(including jews). Republicans are the party of the rich & white (including Jews).
I like Oprah. She’s an American icon, never to be forgotten. @Pumpkin: have you seen the video where she she found out the OJ Simpson verdict? You can tell she had her doubts about him (or straight up thought he was guilty) unlike many of the black people on the set.
Yes! All the blacks standing behind Oprah went euphoric with joy but oprah just stood there emotionless. She tried to keep her opinions to herself until she was a billionaire.
Where is Afrosapiens these days? We got along pretty well. I miss that guy.
Sadly I had to ban him.
There was nothing sad about it.
What did he do?
He was a magnet for racist trolls & would get into some very unpleasant confrontations with other commenters.
Deal, he still posts a lot on twitter under the same handle.
The innovation of trump was to make the republican party a white nationalist party whereas previously it was a party that catered to Steve Schwarzman.
trump made it the party of white nationalism + alternative facts while maintaining its subservience to coporate & zionist interests
What are pp’s thoughts on white identitarianism? I’m not a wignat, let alone a nazi, but i’ve gotten a lot of mileage over the past year or so looking at politics in terms of what’s good for whites/Core America.
I’ve actually gotten a few of my friends, both white and nonwhite, to check out the edgy sphere, too.
I have no problem with whites advocating for their ethnic interests just like every other race does. I just don’t see why they have to become a party of violent psychotic conspiracy theorists in order to do so.
That exists in all ethnocentrism. There’s a healthy side and then there’s the extreme side that manifests as a superiority and victimization complex to justify the lack of evidence for X group’s supposed superiority.
“White people would be on top of it weren’t for tHe jEwS!! “
“Is it good for X” is a heavily used analytical tool for pretty much all nonwhites. I’ve had some really great discussions with some asian friends coming at it from the perspective of what’s good for american whites.
I completely agree, but they probably wouldn’t be if there wasn’t any opposition to it.
It’s unfortunate that the only powerful person to embrace their movement was an unhinged conspiracy theorist like Trump. The movement and the country would be much better off if they could get behind someone rational like Tucker Carlson.
You don’t understand why the face of the white interest movement is psychotic conspiracy theorists? It’s because certain Semitic individuals and masochistic twats have strategically rendered acknowledgment and discussion of legitimate European cultural and genetic interests social and vocational suicide. Most people brazen enough to proclaim such interests are socially disturbed or already cancelled.
HBD-aware, hereditarian rationalists are systematically ostracized from positions of influence and prestige and effectively restricted to pseudonymously ranting on obscure internet forums. Meanwhile, mildly bright yet impressionable students of elite universities are instilled to regard white developments and American individualism with contempt.
Yeah, given the current political climate, a white would tend to be crazy to push his ethnic interests & the media advances the craziest ones to discredit the movement
Because “white genetic interests” have been translated historically and literally as
“White elite interests”;
“Environmental destruction”;
“Colonialism = slavery and pillage of other peoples and lands”
…
Whitey on avg are extremely sloppy in rationality.
Not even close
He started off with the facade of a making it a white nationalist party for early boosts and ended up making it a civic nationalist partly.
he not even suggested retrumpican party was “now” white nationalist.

The difference between “traditional elites” and italian mafia is that the mafiosi are honest about their criminal nature.
It’s interesting how the italians have embraced democracy, despite being so family oriented. As Sailer has pointed out, that same instinct in Arabs renders national cooperation almost impossible.

I guess consanguinity makes the bonds even stronger.
Consanguinity may make family bond stronger not necessarily at communitarian levels. That’s why nepotism is so characteristic in these societies. Because it tends to correlate with low levels of cultural and technological innovation, their apparent stability gives us the illusion of social harmony. People there are just less likely to ascend socially or to compete ferociously with one another due to lack of “economic freedom”. They are more communitarian but also because it’s a good strategy when we face lack of basic resources caused by rampant corruption or nepotism. But it doesn’t mean they are significantly more careful. Also there is some probable tendency for larger families to live near or be neighbors. Many genetically related people sharing same spaces.
How explain higher levels of trusting in the individualistic nations than in collectivistic?? Because in the first group, people tend to treat the other like an equal individual while in collectivistic society people tend to be selfish when they ascend socially due homogamically induced nepotism. But it’s more complex than that. Sweden erratic approaching on pandemic crisis is a demonstration that even the highest trusting nation things are not highly predictable even i think majority of swedes really have believed in Tegnells bullshit fake news about covid-19 as official advertisings. Then many them doesn’t believes they are wrongdoing nothing. You know, swedes tend to be very dumb or naive oftentimes and also very conformist to authority. Also excessive mental stability make people more likely to be underreactive, a common trait of ethnic swede, and nordic, on general. And combined all these psychological landscape with the political one, current neoliberalization in swedish economy.
Modern democracy is mostly fake or vaguely constituted. Literally speaking, it’s not like a “government of common people”. In the USA, before popular elections specially for presidents and state governors, rich people choose who they want to dispute. Then the rest of people choose what rich people choose first.
But there are significant differences between North, central and South italian regions.
swedes tend to be very dumb or naive oftentimes and also very conformist to authority.
I think this is pretty much true of all northern euro peoples. You see this a lot in the U.S. with the left’s Science! obsession and the right’s proclivity for religious fundamentalism and bizarre conspiracies.
Is whites’ attraction to political/philosophical universalism rooted in the enlightenment? Or does it go back further?
Yeah further. Europeans took onto christianity a lot more than where it originated it in the middle east where warrior religions where preferred.
I’m not sure about that, Europeans were very much a warrior race in their beginnings (like most).
The race picks the religion!
have you ever heard of the roman empire and its state religion after 312?
But enlightment was a continuity of italian artistic renaissance but by scientific via and renaissance was a rediscovery of classical antiquity.
being white is only a little more important to higher class whites.
what’s more important to them is being…whatever their european nationality is…and if they’re mixed nationality/heritage americans then being a daughter or son of the american revolution, etc.. is more important to them.
i guarantee the lower class the white the more likely he listens to rap.

Yeah. There aren’t many guys like that left in LA now. You gotta travel to the 714 and the 909.
I think they’ve already studied the link between music taste and IQ. No surprise rap comes last and classical music comes first. I’m personally open to listening to both but its has to be the right artist.
And fans of alt music tend to be brighter than fans of stuff in the mainstream. In my experience dark wave and vaporwave listeners are especially bright.

peepee thinks affirmative action because dems care about minorities!
how UTTERLY FUCKING RETARDED do you have to be to think that?!
Who said anything about caring? I said dems are for minorities (i.e. affirmative action). You said they only pretend to be. Any reasonable person would interpret that to mean you think affirmative action only pretends to help blacks but doesn’t actually

i added to my shorts on AMC and GME yesterday after seeing the short interest in GME had fallen below 50%.
thanks to the melo and dwherpes personalities for giving me their money.
I sold out of AMC on Wednesday and never bought GME. Told you I’m good at stocks 🙂
I got out of gme at 475 then bought a put and a made another few grand.
It’s sad because Mugabe could have made so much more money on gme if he was smarter.
For you who think Hollywood has been always progressive…
PP a random question: Do you believe proto humans had straight hair, then they got curly hair as negroes before the diaspora where they got straight hair again….if you dont…where do you place the timing of the OOA migrations, and what race were they?
Kinky hair goes back at least 300,000 years. Blacks are an EXTREMELY ancient race.
Are you saying the reason why we did nothing for hundreds of thousands of years is because we were mostly black and at 70 IQ?
Average genetic IQ was probably similar to that of today’s black hunter-gatherers (i.e. pygmies/bushman).
Are you multiracial, PP? I read a comment of yours saying that you wouldn’t have been born if not for social developments spearheaded by Hebrews.
Correct
Race is a social construct.
Racial specification is meant to conjure one’s concept of a distinguishable and therefore substantive human phenotype. The extent to which one can make inferences of another’s character, background, or ability based on race is limited, but race, like gender, is worthwhile information in many contexts. This is akin to saying there shouldn’t exist names for different breeds of dog.
There is some overlap, but reproductive isolation has resulted in subspecies of Man that can practically be sorted with 100% accuracy with only perfunctory inspection.
are you saying it went from straight to kinky then back to straight again? and what are the odds of that given that every race in the diaspora has straight hair…that would mean it happened relly early on , just after the migration before everyone had a chance to spread…can you see how the odds are thinning away here?
Pygmies split off from the rest of the negroid race 300 kya yet they too have kinky hair which suggests the negroid phenotype (including kinky hair)goes back at least 300,000 years.
The negroid phenotype is relatively recent.
Early humans looked more like cromagnon, regardless of location
Then how do you explain why pygmies have a negroid phenotype despite splitting off 300 kya? Convergent evolution?
Jesus Christ.
We wouldn’t be having retarded conversations like this if you had even an iota of a clue about what you’re saying.
Learn elementary anthropology and the compass one back and apologize to me for wasting my fucking time.
You wouldn’t be getting so hostile if you weren’t wrong. What part do you disagree with? Pygmies splitting off 300,000 years ago or them having the Negroid phenotype:
And if you knew how stupid what you said was you wouldn’t of said it.
Pygmies split off 70,000 years ago. And the first humans weren’t really negroid.
Your source is over ten years old. More recent research using whole genome sequencing begs to differ:
https://westhunt.wordpress.com/2016/02/24/pygmy-split/
Your source is over 5 years old. More recent research using whole genome sequencing begs to differ:
https://genomebiology.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/s13059-019-1684-5
So you have the actual study or what?
Your source just cites sources which are older than my source. Don’t have the study but it’s likely the most recent one your source cited
Pretty sure it’s the 2014 one because that’s the only thing I could find from the period when he said it.
Either way that one states they split off anywhere from 90,000 to 150,000 years ago. And Bantu which are actual negroids didn’t split off until much later.
cochran’s post is from feb 2016 so he was probably citing this article:
https://genome.cshlp.org/content/26/3/279
My bad I meant 2016. But yeah that’s the one I was referring to.
Either way that one states they split off anywhere from 90,000 to 150,000 years ago. And Bantu which are actual negroids didn’t split off until much later.
But that’s assuming a fast mutation rate which Cochran debunked. You’re making up your own definition of Negroid.
How did he “debunk it”?
I’m literally not. What do you know about the morphological variation among African sub populations?
He debunked it in his blog post & again in the comment section of Sailer’s blog:
The slow rate predicts that Neanderthals split off from modern humans something like 600,000 years ago, which is what the fossil record shows. It also predicts the current observed mutation rate. The previous fast mutation rate disagrees with A. the fossil record and B. contemporary family-trio measurements – in other words, it’s wrong. I can see why you would prefer it.
And yet one commenter points out examples of where the slow mutation rate gives absurd results. And the estimates that use the faster rates with pygmies corroborate other pieces of evidence. Peter frost even comes in and refutes him.
Mathematically, how did he arrive at the 300,000 figure?
Ultimately, it doesn’t really matter because slowing the clock not only pushes Neanderthal/human divergence to 600,000 and Pygmy divergence supposedly to 300,000. It pushes the out of Africa expansion to 120,000 years ago. And it actually does little to support your original narrative that negroids are an “ancient” phenotype.
The Negroid phenotype is anywhere from 300 kya to 70 kya, depending on whether you consider Bushmen Negroid and which mutation rate you use.
Pygmies aren’t negroid.

Where in your article do they prove pygmies aren’t Negroid?
Where the compared each groups phenotype.
To summarize, therefore, the Pleistocene skulls from across Africa tend to be broad,
long, with a broad face and broad, short orbits.
By contrast, the skulls of the Khoisan (“Bushman”) population are relatively short,
low, broad, narrow, with a comparatively intermediate nose.
Pygmies are characterized by great variability, but they usually have small-sized
round skulls, and a balanced face.
How does this prove pygmies are different from Bantu, let alone different enough to justify their own macro-racial group?
I imagine you know how to read so I’ll ask you, how can they be negroid if they don’t share the same average skeletal morphology, which is what the negroid classification is based on?
It’s based on the totality of morphology inherited from a common ancestor. If pygmies are more similar to Negroids than they are to any other race, then they get classified as Negroid. You don’t create a new classification just because someone doesn’t fit the stereotype perfectly because we expect diversity within races. No one ethnic group has all the Negroid traits.
But even if we just go by skulls, Howell showed that even Andamanese pygmies cluster with Bantus so I’d be surprised if African ones did not:

You have absolutely no justification for lumping the entirety of Africa into one racial group despite its relatively enormous genetic heterogeneity and phenotypic variation other than your racist intuitions.
Dark skinned people don’t all look the same. And let’s be real, you’re only reason for even thinking pygmies are negroid is because you moronically think that they do.
If you could, you’d probably lump dinosaurs with reptiles and dolphins with fish. Despite your supposedly high class upbringing, you have a lot prole biases that only arise when someone is extremely ignorant about the world around them.

You have no justification for lumping all sub-Saharans EXCEPT Pygmies and Bushman into one racial group.

Neither do all Bantu speakers. And let’s be real, your only reason for even thinking only Bantu are Negroid is because you moronically think that they do.

Despite the “white trash” supposedly building houses for you, I suspect you’re actually building houses for them. If you could you’d probably lump all fish together with the arbitrary exception of salmon and talapia.
“You have no justification for lumping all sub-Saharans EXCEPT Pygmies and Bushman into one racial group.”
I do. I literally posted my justification.
“And let’s be real, your only reason”
I already provided my REAL reason where’s yours? Oh that’s right you think random google pictures are evidence.
“Despite the “white trash” supposedly building houses for you, I suspect you’re actually building houses for them.”
You’re right, I build houses for REAL upper class white people using cheap Mexican labor instead of wannabe celebrities that run racist and scientifically illiterate blogs.

Your quote described a Negroid skull but did not compare it to a Bantu skull using the same measures. By contrast my evidence that pygmies and Bantu are the same race is that they’ve been lumped together by every phenotypic taxonomy I’ve seen including Meyers Konversations-Lexikon, Blumenbach, Coon, & Rushton. When the experts in a field all come to the same conclusion, that conclusion is objective.
In addition, a dendrogram performed by Harvard anthropologist William White Howells found all Africans (and even Andaman Islanders) clustered together.

So you exploit Mexicans. How non-racist of you.
“experts”
LOL
“In addition, a dendrogram performed by Harvard anthropologist William White Howells found all Africans (and even Andaman Islanders) clustered together.”
And?
“So you exploit Mexicans. How non-racist of you”
It may be immoral, but it’s not racist.
All I know is what he says here and here
west african:
East African:
Pygmy:
What do the first 2 have in common that the Pygmy doesn’t (other than height)?
Cherry picking random pictures of people of an ethnicity does not provide evidence for the assertions you’ve made.
You are incredibly ignorant to think that you can even have a meaningful comparison of phenotype from random pictures you took from google.
On the other hand Peter Frost argues that pygmies diverged much more recently & only appear to have diverged 300 kya (using the slow mutaion rate) because they mated with Erectus 35 kya so maybe you’re right about the splitting off date, but even yours is pretty ancient, & if we include Bushmen in our Negroid definition (as Rushton & Jensen did), it gets more ancient still.
Actually this diagram was published is from an extremely respected and recent source (Nature, 2020), and implies pygmies split off about 225 kya:

you do know that apes have straight hair
so when did straight hair evolve and did it do so once before expansion, and how long do you think it took kinky hair to get straight…
the first people out of africa had kinky hair. We see remnants of the original Out of Africa migration in the kinky hair of the Adaman Islands, New Guinea, and Aboriginal Tasmanians. Then later on straight hair probably evolved in India and some of these migrated to Australia, creating the straight-haired Australoids.
Straight hair evolved before kinky hair.
also given that it took at most 15000 years for the aborigines to get there how does this fit in the puzzle?you have to have straight hair developing within 5000 years of the diaspora, also you must understand that there were waves of africans with kinky hair migrating later on that fought back this straightening of the hair…these are not good odds for your theory
also negroes are not an ancient race, the difference in genotype between capoids and negroes is much bigger than the difference between west europeans and aborigines…so how do you justify calling one the other….also as you can see that capoids look closer to negroes than aforementioned western europeans look like aboriginoids…would it be fair to say that phenotype is extremely misleading…because the difference between any two random capoids or even negroids is biggere than the difference between any west european and any aboriganoid…and that is within a race…is it not conceivable that phenotype hides evolutionary advances…because a negro today would almost definitly be genetically different from some one say 200000 years ago just by genetic drift
If you define taxa by DNA then no taxa (race, species, kindom) can ever be ancient because DNA changes too rapidly for any extant group to have an ancient genotype. I define taxa as all descendants of a common ancestor who share that ancestor’s phenotype.
