In the future everyone will be brown. And that's a good thing since the radiation from the ozone being damaged is going to be pretty bad for the pales.
I legit get a sunburn on my face from walking outside in regular sun for a half hour.
It's serious.
We aren't designed for current and certainly not the future radiation exposure.
The damage to the ozone layer is reducing and has been for decades.
New concerns about burning up aluminum satellites in the upper atmosphere by the thousands a year having an impact on that. Everything old is new again.
Well still. Darker skin is more adaptive for sun exposure. Even if the ozone is restored.
Also impacted wisdom teeth are more common in Caucasians.
That's a huge design flaw. Need to get that out of the gene pool.
Generic diversity is what humanity needs to be healthier. And that will result in most future humans being darker skinned.
Not to worry. After we are all basically the same color, someone will figure out a new reason to divide us.
Hey man, eugenics is fucking evil.
I literally said genetic diversity is best. Do you not know what that means ?
Since a large portion of humans have darker skin , mixing and mingling (genetic diversity) will ultimately result in there being more brown people.
What did I say that reeks of eugenics. ? Seriously.
Okay let me explain how genetic diversity works so you aren't confused.
Genetic codes have all sorts of errors.
Lots of bad corrupt blue prints.
When two make a baby, often times , between them both, they fix those errors.
It's why it's rare for women to have color blindness. Because that "fix" is carried on the X chromosome.
There are a lot of genetic diseases. And most of them are recessive.
Like the color blindness. Hemophilia is another.
When people have babies with closed communities, these errors become more common. And the fixes stop being present as much.
Because genes are passed on regardless if they were dominant in the person passing them on.
For instance. I could carry the bad genetics for color blindness and not actually be color blind. But my children would have a risk because of my genes.
When there is generic diversity, these things are fixed.
Because they proliferate in smaller groups.
But when there is more genetic diversity, there is a higher chance of the other parent carrying a "fix" gene.
A better version of the bad one. Essentially.
Secondly. Acknowledging genetic diseases and disorders is not eugenics.
Trying to prevent genetic diseases or disorders is not eugenics. It's modern medicine.
Acknowledging some genes are better than others , in that the person is healthier and won't have a high risk of disease or disorders , is not eugenics. It's science.
Here is what eugenics is.
A belief that genes related to things like skin color and eye color (which are independent of health, btw), are somehow superior. For no reason other than a flawed belief that originated in colonialism and nationality. It has no scientific basis.
There is no skin or hair color. Nose shape. Foot size. Nothing like that, that is indicative of physical health nor mental ability. Having dark skin is protective from sunburn. But otherwise, there isn't really any difference between skin colors in regards to health.
Eugenics also believes that things like personality and intelligence are 100% genetic and that by breeding successful sociopaths will create smarter sociopaths.
But it's well established that genetics only contribute a small amount to these things. Environment makes the biggest difference.
So if you legitimately wanted to make people smart and healthy, based on scientific evidence,
You need to
That's the way you do it.
And fyi. If you haven't ever had impacted wisdom teeth and don't understand how many people are stuck with teeth growing in side ways in their jaw and no way to pay to have them removed, then you just be quiet about me saying it's a big fuckinh deal and we need genetic diversity to cure it.
It's 100% something that needs cured.
It's a medical problem. A painful problem that many people deal with for years. Just Google on reddit "I have impacted wisdom teeth and can't afford to get them removed. ". -so many horror stories.
Genetic diversity will ultimately cure genetic based diseases and make us all healthier.
Again acknowledging a medical health problem tied to genetics is not eugenics. That's literally science.
That's science. That's not eugenics. I'm not calling to force breeding .
I'm saying we all gotta mix and mingle. And we should promote that in our society because it makes healthier babies.
Instead of shaming interracial couples. Which is more common.
