Are some races inherently superior to others?

[Scholencia]

Not races, but indeed some cultures are superior to others. Like for example, Europe has always been a center of the world and it is not comparable to the primitive, barbaric tribes from the pre-Columbian era.

Has it? I mean in the most modern period yes, but always?

Well, from the Ancient Greek, Rome until the 8th century it was developed. Than stagnation came due to migration of germanic and slavic (barbarian) tribes. After some time, Europe got on their feet again. So yes, it is about 2300 years of being the best place on Easrth.

First to answer the question, no not in all shapes and forms, but certain races adapted to certain environments, and slowly evolution has been making us and our ancestors more adapted to their environments. Certain races are superior in certain areas, but no race is overall superior to another. Sorry if what I said isn't exactly cohesive, it's just how I roll.

The stagnation like their early progress was due to many influences, but even at those times and before and after they were not alone in their status...also developed? How really?

A centralized Empire and solid buildings made of concrete and roads that are usable every time of the year. Compare that to the Barbarians of that time

Are barbarians the only other people in the world at that time?

Yes, why are you wondering?

[Suudeir]

Yes, superman is superior to all others

[Merriwhether]

This isn't a question of "race" but culture and socio-economic situations.

^This.

[Jub Jub Forever]

How is this even a real question.No

Are barbarians the only other people in the world at that time?

In it's original meaning, yes.
In common speech, almost. Only China comes to my mind.

[Uieurnthlaal]

Some people are inherently superior to others. Who could doubt that Einstein or Ramnuajan or al-Khwarizmi were born extraordinarily smart? However, I don't believe that when averaged among races, there is any significant difference. Even if some races are ever so slightly better than others, race would be only a negligible factor in determining intelligence, fitness, etc. So to summarize, some people are born with better genes than others, but when averaged out to races, there are no significant difference.
Edit: Just to clarify, I do not support forced sterilization of supposedly "less intelligent" or "less healthy" humans. While in the long term, that might cause humankind to get smarter and healthier, it would be astoundingly and incomprehensibly immoral. I just think that some people are born with lucky genes.

[Paixao]

Yes, there are some differences between races. There's a reason why nearly all 60 meter running record holders are black.

...and it's not down to race but rather genetics.

EDIT: Also, since when is 60m the standard measure for running?

[Aaland]

Since 1900.

"The 60 metres was an Olympic event in the 1900 and 1904 Summer Games but was removed from the schedule thereafter."
The standard measure for running, but not in the Olympics?

[The Nuclear Fist]

Then you are very ignorant of history.

[Yankee Empire]

Culture and socio-economic situtatiosn dictate phenotypes *nods*

Oh, I missed the "standard" part. Derp.

[Freeman]

Im white but the blacks are better.

[Arumdaum]

What's the opinion of the NS community?

Not races, but indeed some cultures are superior to others. Like for example, Europe has always been a center of the world and it is not comparable to the primitive, barbaric tribes from the pre-Columbian era.

Europe has always been a center of the world? Haha, bullshit.

[Arumdaum]

Yes, there are some differences between races. There's a reason why nearly all 60 meter running record holders are black.

Yes, it's because of your shallow understanding of basic biology.

[Shaggai]

Why yes. Intelligent races, such as humans, are inherently superior to nonintelligent/nonsentient races such as E. Coli.

[Mkuki]

Why yes. Intelligent races, such as humans, are inherently superior to nonintelligent/nonsentient races such as E. Coli.

Considering those aren't races...

[Arumdaum]

The stagnation came due to the inefficient economy, shitty rulers, corruption, the slave economy, having an empire that's too large to control, alongside the growing power of the Germanic tribes which coincided with the decline of Rome, not due to migration. During the Middle Ages, Europe was literally a horrible place to be in comparison to East Asia and the Islamic World, both of which were prospering. Europe, especially Western Europe, was cut off from most trade as old roads degraded and fell out of use, and also due to its location on the western fringe of the Eurasian continent. European goods were also not very much desired by the people of other nations.

[Mkuki]

Yes, there are some differences between races. There's a reason why nearly all 60 meter running record holders are black.

And clearly, it's because they're black.

The President did win the race to the White House twice.

[Shaggai]

Why yes. Intelligent races, such as humans, are inherently superior to nonintelligent/nonsentient races such as E. Coli.

Considering those aren't races...

Well, I mean, the human race, you know, close enough...
