Fantastic post, TCT. That last excerpt in particular was an excellent, if sobering, read.

Sadly, I have no doubt most of the people who really need to read it will ignore it, but there's not much one can do about that. :(

We should petition the Mods to create a pinned thread into which all of TCT's posts can be pasted, or at least linked. It would save us all a lot of time hunting down the one we want.

I do not know or really care for that matter where I will go. My concern is preserving white America civilization and preventing further miscegenation (which in my opinion is a crime on par with murder).

Racial identity is the possession of the genes that comprise any defined race. Miscegenation leaves a child raceless. For example, if a white man mates with a black woman, the child is neither white nor black and cannot truly be part of either race.

Races are identified physiologically, not genetically.

And no, you're not robbing a child of racial identity any more than getting an abortion robs a child of life. For it to be robbery, both the owner of the item and the item in question has to exist. In both cases, those criteria are not fulfilled.

Furthermore, yes, it's ok. Racial identity is meaningless. To be classified as either black or white is entirely useless, and thus the inability to do so (which is truly present in any case; race is a spectrum, not a bunch of isolated groups. Nobody is a pure member of any race.) is without importance.

That is your (misguided and completely incorrect) opinion. Those people who actually care to define themselves as part of a group, as most of humanity does, are harmed when their most concrete means of self definition is taken from them.

The problem is that they aren't. Genetics in its purest form draws blurry distinctions, and the genetics of human race is hardly pure genetics.

There is a known correlation between Biological Parents and their children's Intelligence. They did studies I can't remember the name of it now but where they monitored the Intelligence of Twins who were separated during adoptions and found they both had similar IQs to their Biological Mothers.

I should clarify that it would be genetics and not race that had an effect on IQ.

So wait, you want to replace an "outdated" system with one that is not only far more obsolete, but also completely divorced from science and reality?

Yeah, no. Race isn't clearly defined. Do you know why? Because from a biological perspective, there's no significant difference between the one species: Homo sapiens.

That is your (misguided and completely incorrect) opinion. Those people who actually care to define themselves as part of a group, as most of humanity does, are harmed when their most concrete means of self definition is taken from them.

I never said it was. I said that there is a genetic influence on children in regards to intelligence but not a racial one.

Then indeed, one can hardly be said to have robbed an individual of racial identity, if it's immutable.

And really, you haven't said anything with regard to the importance of race aside from the fact that people tend to identify with it. That doesn't make it actually important, and it certainly doesn't make it stupid to demolish race.

Verily, to say that one has no racial identity if they don't fit into one of the pre-defined classes is sheer stupidity. If it's indeed genetic then, as I said before, race is a spectrum. Any attempts to make it "black and white", as it were, are folly. Merely having a different position on the racial spectrum than one's parents is no ground to say that the child's racial identity has been taken from them.

Aye I didn't read exactly what our bizarre WN friend was discussing I thought it was genetics which would at least make sense. I should not give him the benefit of the doubt again. :lol2:

Nonsense. Its important because people pretend its important, and they can't do without it because they become upset if they don't have it. Surely this is very sound reasoning...

After all, racial identity is...what was it they called it..."the most concrete basis for identity" or something like that.
