Way to be obtuse. That's not the point at all.

You're attempting to assign a linear value analysis to race, that is the basis of your hypothesis. I'm saying that everyone has contributed in one way or another, so a linear paradigm is incongruent with the structure of racial interactions.

For history to land us where we are, a great many peoples cast logs onto the fire of time. Take away any of those logs and you get a different fire. Assuming one log of the many has some special property that led inexorably to this outcome is nothing short of self serving racial hubris.

Race is a social construct, and a clusterfuck at that. Individuals make the world.

The separation of humans into k number of population groups ("race") is a trivial exercise for population geneticists.

Please unpack your usage of "linear" in this context, so anyone on this forum who has had even a bit of cursory familiarity with mathematics, statistics, and/or population genetics can have a laugh at your expense.

This sound like one of those posts I've written on this forum mocking culturalist PC liberals.

The word soup train-wreck is a favored lampooning technique of mine.

Many of those parody posts have passed the "Turing Test" for Poe's Law, so don't feel too bad.
