Problem for you and rasolowitz is that in the process of debunking them, Keita is debunking you also!!! LOL

Does not agree with Sforza's trees

quote:
"Many investigators still use dendrograms to represent the philogenetic history of human “races”. These representations imply bifurcations or splitting of ancestral populations. They suggest an absolute distinctness or discreetness that is not a flaw of ordinate methods. This problematic. Dendrograms cannot accurately depict evolutionary gradients of differentiation or distinguish similarity due to gene flow. They can also be unreliable in their depictions of population relationships when demographic factors such as population size are not constant or equal between populations ... In a word, dendrograms are ambiguous in their apparent depiction of certainty."
quote:
"The persistence of the racial paradigm (and not just names) is further illustrated by investigators who use dendrograms (trees) to assess to group similarities or dissimilarities, usually in quest of intraspecific phylogenies. The groups utilized usually conform to the old racial schema. Dendrograms are also used to illustrate the divergence of entities called human races or of populations used as their surrogates. This is problematic since few human populations, even authentic breeding ones, are so well differentiated (and independent) from each other as to support the distinctness implied by tree branches. The degree of drift has not been necessarily equal across space and time. The ubiquity and complexity of human migration patterns guarantee that branching points in trees will always be suspect. (Jorde 1985) Also, strictly speaking, studies can only inform about the groups used in the analysis. Therefore a study using Mbuti, a clan of Saame speakers, a Swedish village, and Vedda can only tell us about each of them. These groups should not be reified into other entities."
Does not argue for Europeans as a secondary type or race due to its hybrid origins.

quote:
"Races are types, defined by complexes of anatomical traits; clear boundaries exist by definition, and definitions are tautologies. (Breed-ing populations are mating systems.) The boundaries implied by the specificity of type definitions are shattered when other data are considered.
quote:
"The strict racial approach constructs human diversity as being reducible to a fixed number of foundational, natural, and indivisible units (types), which consist of near uniform individuals. Variation from these units in this model is primarily explained by admixture. Thus there were primary and secondary races."
Does not agree with Bowcock analysis
quote:
"Nuclear DNA studies suggest to some that Blumenbach’s “Caucasian” entity (or some of it) is at foundation an “inter-mixed” group composed of earlier differentiated non-European (specifically Asian and central African) elements (e.g. Bowcock etal. 1991)—this may be a problem given that the contributing groups seem to conform to received raciotypological schema- but should be acceptable to those who believe in the existence of races."..."

akoben tries to console himself with his feeble lies...
quote:
Keita is debunking you also
I agree with Keita. The only one who disagreed with him was you, as you advocated race, which Keita debunks, and in doing so debunks you.

alas, you are a coward, and reduced to denying that you ever believed in race, and pretending there is some debate between Keita and me.

your evidence of this debate is fake citations which are actually from *you*, and not Keita or me.

rotfl.

You're pathetic....

One can show that a branch to a population resulting from admixture tends to be shorter than other branches.

^ akoben has now admited that Europeans are not a race, but he his unhappy about "why" they aren't.

So lets state it directly and challenge him -or anyone else- to prove the above is wrong.

- Europeans are not a fundamental division or sub-species, and therefore not a race.

They are a non-fundamental, recently admixed group with qualitatively less genetic distinction than the Africans and non Africans from which they derive.

And this fact in turn undermines the entire schematic of race.

And akoben is a perfect example of why?

He begin his argument trying to defend 'race'.

When made to confront admixture in Europeans, he then changed his mind:

In his twisted mind, it's even *worse* for Europeans to be admixed, than to not be a race at all.

But the painful bitter truth for racists like akoben is that Europeans are admixed, and are not a race.


And the manner in which they are admixed is *why* they are not a race.

It's the worst of all worlds for people like akboen.

Eurocentrists, feel free to disagree, and rescue jackass akoben from his 'racial dispair'. [Razz]

This is true, and you inability to understand this furthre evidences your lliteracy.

Statement reads that many investigators use dendrograms to represent races.

Does not read as ->

- Keita opposes dendrograms. Keita does not oppose dendrograms, and said no choice thing.

Such a reading would make no sense, as Keita makes his own dendrograms and also interpretes the dendrograms of others.

Keita both creates and interprets dendrograms as debunking the concept of race.

So it is blatantly stupid to claim that Keita is merely "opposed to dendrograms".

^ This claim only proves that you're and illiterate jackass.

next...

^ Again your illiteracy betrays you.

Keita is saying that the notion that *Blumenbach’s “Caucasian” entity (or some of it) is at foundation is flawed.

And here is why, per Keita.....

In this case……then one of the units [Caucasian] is *not fundamental*, because its genesis is qualitatively different from the other units and even connects them.

Therefore, Caucasian would be a secondary type, or race due to it’s *hybrid origin* and *not* a primary race.

This compromises the racial schema and also invalidates the metaphysical underpinnings of the race construct, which implies deep and fundamental differences between it’s units.



Nowhere does the above say anything about 'disagreeing' with 'Ann Bowcock', on Europeans being and admixture of African and Non African elements.

^ The part you hate.

Of course, they are, and this is precisely why Keita [not bowcock] calls caucasian *non fundamental* and concludes that causasian fails to model as a race.

I thought not.

Then, I guess your strategy of running-away from the truth is probably best.

What KEITA says about the inherent relationship between 'race', and 'fundamentalism'.

1) - the concept of race is biology is built on fundamental differences - ie, no fundamental difference = no race

2) but cacuasians are are derivitive and not fundamental. - ie - because caucasian is not fundamental, then caucasian is not a race.


^ Feel free, to agree with Keita [and us] regarding the above.

You can even pretend you always agreed if that makes you feel better.

Either way you are defeated.

- And advocator of race, who can no longer openly advocate it, but can only sit in the corner and squirm,
mumbling against alleged denials,

Meanwhile - caucaZoids are as dead as a doornail, and it's clear that you can't revive them.

That's the bottom line.

akboben: let us know when caucasoid race isn't dead anymore, and then you will actually have something to argue for. [Embarrassed]

You're a god damn liar, admit it.

How about this one? "in genetics, a type, or geno-type, is a marker or markers, that distinguishes one population from another." [posted 28 September, 2008 01:17 AM]

quote:
^ that is the definition of genotype from the dictionary jackass.
Yes, and it was in response to a specific question, regarding a specific quote. This you cant escape liar!

"what is the meaning of "type" here?" to which rasolowitz replies: "in genetics, a type, or geno-type, is a marker or markers, that distinguishes one population from another."[/i]

quote:
Statement reads that many investigators use dendrograms to represent races.
Or of populations used as their surrogates:

quote:
These representations imply bifurcations or splitting of ancestral populations..unreliable in their depictions of population relationships when demographic factors such as population size are not constant or equal between populations...Dendrograms are also used to illustrate the divergence of entities called human races or of populations used as their surrogates
It reads as I have said Keita does not support your/Sforza's human geographical population dendrograms. Nowhere can you show he does! The dendrograms in the Badrian article (where you LIED it said "types") you thought would help you are NOT the same as Sforza's trees.

quote:
Keita is saying that the notion that *Blumenbach’s “Caucasian” entity (or some of it) is at foundation is flawed.
LOL No, dufus, you obviously cant read (which means this is like debating a child! LOL) he's saying the notion that a population or group (in this case Europeans) can be, at its foundation, an "intermixed" group composed of two earlier differentiated populations (Asian and African) is flawed.

quote:
Nuclear DNA studies suggest to some that ”Blumenbach’s “Caucasian” entity (or some of it) is at foundation an “inter-mixed” group composed of earlier differentiated non-European (specifically Asian and central African) elements...this may be a problem given that the contributing groups seem to conform to received raciotypological schema- but should be acceptable to those who believe in the existence of races...."
According to him this is what is flawed/problematic as he does not believe in population distinctiveness and branching on trees, in short, he does not agree with your/Bowcock/Sforza analysis and interpretations.

quote:
Nowhere does the above say anything about 'disagreeing' with 'Ann Bowcock', on Europeans being and admixture of African and Non African elements.
Sillyboy, he is analyzing her work within the context of the persistence of racial thinking among the works of his contemporaries hence he is NOT saying Europeans ARE a secondary type or race composed of two earlier differentiated populations. How many times must the context of the quote be explained to your childlike brain?!?!?

No primary or secondary types or races since,
quote:
"Races are types, defined by complexes of anatomical traits; clear boundaries exist by definition, and definitions are tautologies”... "The strict racial approach constructs human diversity as being reducible to a fixed number of foundational, natural, and indivisible units (types), which consist of near uniform individuals. Variation from these units in this model is primarily explained by admixture. Thus there were primary and secondary races."
quote:
"Therefore, Caucasian would be a secondary type, or race due to it’s *hybrid origin* and *not* a primary race.

^ Akoben, beyound denial, and pretending that DR Kieta didn't say this, or didn't mean it

Again, he is NOT saying they ARE a secondary type or race. How many times must this be explained to your childlike brain?!?!?

You were even forced to admit that he is not saying this, "Keita never claimed that Europeans are a secondary type"[posted 08 October, 2008 07:02 PM]

Forced to understand the difference between someone saying would be and are:
quote:
Aliveboy posts: apparently [rasolowitz] does not understand the difference between would be and are ..."Europeans, the defining Caucasians...would therefore be a secondary type or race due to its hybrid origins". – SOY Keita
The context of the quote was explained:
quote:
He qualifies his statement with a "would in that scenario", as in, under the general racial assumption held by many in the past and by some of his contemporaries, that (and I'm quoting) "Caucasian would be a secondary type or race due to its hybrid origin", IF race were relevant. He and Kittles demonstrates through out their paper that it is not.
Why in gods name then are you still going BACK in time to your previous position: that he MEANT to say that Europeans ARE a secondary type? Especially AFTER you admitted "Keita never claimed that Europeans are a secondary type"[posted 08 October, 2008 07:02 PM]

It is because you have been caught red handed in your f**k ups; entangled in your web of BS; reduced to double, triple and fipple flip flopping and lies.

- Keita does not say Europeans are a secondary type (genotype) as you thought/and still think

- Keita does not agree with your dendrograms

- Keita does not classify human populations into "units" or types, whether fundamental/primary or secondary

^ Tell me when you numskulls can refute the above

False. Keita classifies into types such as 'tropical african', which he further distinguishes from 'european type', and he measures said skeletypes in metric units, so you aren't making any sense.

Bottom line....

Keita states that Europeans are not a race, and that they are a genetically admixed population with recent African ancestry.

He draws this conclusion based on genotypes and phenotypes, and metric units, from his own dendrograms and those of others.

Race in the context of a social construct is still valid. Show where I said otherwise.

And the Bowcock/Sforza analysis does support the notion of race. That's why under the racial schema they would be secondary type or race, intermediates between two earlier differentiated population groups African and Asian. That's why he says it would be acceptable to those who believe in races. (Keita, 2001)

Your whole straw argument has been that I claim purity for Europeans/Caucasians. A pure, fundamental, Caucasian race.

Those accusations in your posts must be based on something. What's taking so long? Where did I ever advance the notion that Europeans are a pure race?

You poor confused soul, first you say Keita is not agreeing or disagreeing with the analysis of Europeans as a secondary type etc etc [posted 12 October, 2008 02:12 PM]

Now you say he is not agreeing with the analysis of Europeans as a secondary type etc etc. "Keita never claimed that Europeans are a secondary type"

^ This is because you have to try and reconcile your initial misinterpretation of Keita's position on types, dendrograms and units, with what you know now.

Why post a quote that's actually saying under the racial schema Europeans would be a secondary type, intermediates between two earlier differentiated population groups African and Asian if you are in fact debunking the said racial schema? It wouldn't be relevant in a debate about the irrelevance of the racial schema!

But you gleefully posted it over and over precisely because at first you did not know the context of the Keita quote. You thought he was validating Bowcock's work and Cavalli-Sforza's trees and the accompanying arguments: "Europeans, show as intermediates" between two earlier differentiated population groups African and Asian "contributions from Asia and Africa were estimated to be around two-thirds and one-third".

In fact it was Sundiata who introduced the now infamous Keita quote presenting it as a sort of "validation" of the (your) Cavalli-Sforza trees and accompanying arguments, "^Such [the Keita quote] explains why according to Sforza, Europeans are intermediate between African and Asian populations." [posted 20 September, 2008 06:36 PM]

The truth is, "such" [the Keita quote] in fact does not "explain" or validate Sforza or Bowcock! Keita was actually critiquing such analysis as evidence of the persistence of racial thinking! He wasn't supporting any analysis of Europeans being a secondary type due to admixture, an intermediate between two earlier differentiated population groups African and Asian contributions from Asia and Africa estimated to be around two-thirds and one-third.

Keita point was that such analysis is problematic, as evidence of the persistence of racial thinking, "this may be a problem given that the contributing groups seem to conform to received raciotypological schema but should be acceptable to those who believe in the existence of races."

You in turn, clueless as to the context of the quote, merely coat tailed this misrepresentation of Keita's position from then on, (even with the misquote! "secondary type of race" LOL) and tagged it, in your subsequent posts to make it appear as if Keita was in agreement with it all: "On this [the human population trees and accompanying analysis and percentages] particular Sforza is correct, and he is cited by Keita"[posted 20 September, 2008 08:28 PM]

So before Sundita admitted that Keita was in fact not supporting such an analysis - which of course makes posting that particular quote irrelevant in this context, unless you idnt know the context – you DID advance such an interpretation.

This is why too Mary thinks your position IS that Europeans ARE a secondary type due to hybrid origins - because YOU WERE saying this!!!

which is why you highlighted thus:

Europeans, the defining caucasians arose as a consequence of admixtures of already differentiated populations, and would therefore be a secondary type, or race due to its hybrid origins and not a primary race.[ posted 27 September, 2008 07:29 PM]

And thought "secondary type" in the Keita quote was a reference to genotyp:

What is the difference, in the Keita quote, between "secondary type" and "secondary race"?

"^ It means[/b] that Europeans can be shown to be the result of admixtures between non-africans and africans, and thefore cannot be posited as primary race." - rasolowitz

"what is the meaning of "type" here?",

"in genetics, a type, or geno-type, is a marker or markers, that distinguishes one population from another." - rasolowitz

Hence you thought secondary type was a reference to genotype.

And you STILL argue that Europeans are a secondary type:

quote:
Therefore, Caucasian would be a secondary type, or race due to it’s *hybrid origin* and *not* a primary race...Do you have any evidence to cite that can refute the above?
Prey tell, rasolowitz, why would I need to "refute" the above when Keita is not actually saying this and to top it off you admit this, "Keita never claimed that Europeans are a secondary type" – rasolowitz

Rasol's premise IS what Keita argues that Europeans as a population ARE a secondary type due to admixture – Mary

Then when the context was explained:

"Keita never claimed that Europeans are a secondary type" – rasolwitz

Before:

Rasol's premise IS what Keita argues that Europeans as a population ARE a secondary type due to admixture – Mary

After:
"Keita never claimed that Europeans are a secondary type" – rasolwitz

quote:
non sequitur - i don't have any dendrograms.
LOLOL The whole point of your lies and tricks was to show that Keita was in agreement with you and your white scientists on this particular issue! Now that you cannot show this you sequel "non sequitur". LOLOLOL

quote:
Keita has his own dendrograms and assessments, based upon which he concludes that Europeans are not a race..
^^ That is a non sequitur! Your task/predicament is to show where he agrees with your/Sforza type human population trees (dendrograms) showing "population distinctiveness" to conclude that Europeans are a secondary type due to admixture from two earlier differentiated populations, as you keep posting!

quote:
Keita classifies into types such as 'tropical african', which he further distinguishes from 'european type', and he measures said skeletypes in metric units, so you aren't making any sense.
Show where he classifies, then groups, your 'european type' and 'tropical african' type into human geographical populations and puts them on trees showing "distinctiveness of each population", branching and what not.

Plus, 'tropical african' type cannot even define a geographical region or "branch" akin to say "Europe" or "Asia" since it is but ONE variant out of the many African variants it does not constitute a broad geographical population type.

- Keita does not say Europeans are a secondary type (genotype) as you thought/and still think

- Keita does not agree with your dendrograms

- Keita does not classify human populations into "units" or types, whether fundamental/primary or secondary

^ Tell me when you numskulls can refute the above

Keita's study the MYTH OF RACIAL DIVERGENCE, is bioanthropolical, not a social commentary, so you attempt to paint your replay as pertaining to socio-politics is bogus.

Truth is, you tried to distort Keita's conclusions as being in favor of race.

Then you changed your position when you realised this was hopeless.

But you still lack the intelligence needed to understand what Keita is saying, so reversing your posture can't save you.

It's clear that you've been completely reduced to arguing via illiterate miscitation and bald faced lie.

This is why you're a failure.


And it is clear that you are intentionally lying.

If you really wanted to quote others, you would cut and paste what they actually stated.

But you never do. You just make stuff up and attribute it to others.

And, because you are such a dumb-jackass, you often don't understand the difference between your faked miscitations, and the original source you are distorting.

Prove us wrong, actually address by -quoting only what is written- no comments by you, attributed falsely to others.

I don't expect you to comply.

Below are the answers, he doesn't have.

Question, why is race not relevant?

quote:
ANSWERS FROM KEITA: race is based on the hypothesis of *fundamental* divisions.

one of the racial "units" [caucasian], is not fundamental, as its genesis is qualitatively different from the other "units" and even connects them
- SOY Keita.

Question, why is the genesis of 'caucasian' qualitatively different?

Answers from Bowcock:

quote:
ANNE M. BOWCOCK*t

One can show that a branch to a population resulting from admixture tends to be shorter than other branches.

 -

^ What can we conclude from this?

ANSWERS FROM DR. KEITA:

"Nuclear DNA studies also contribute to the deconstruction of received racial entities.


Question "How so"?

Keita answers:

Ann Bowcock and her colleague's interpretation (Bowcock et al. 1991; Bowcock et al. 1994) of analyses of restriction-site polymorphisms and microsatellite polymorphisms (STRPs) suggests that Europeans, the defining Caucasians, are descendants of a population that arose as a consequence of admixture between already differentiated populations ancestral to (some) Africans and Asians. Therefore, Caucasians would be a secondary type of race due to its hybrid origin and not a primary race".

^ The above is Dr. Keita's specific assessment, and not a general agreement or disagreement with or about anyone or anything else.

OPEN CHALLENGE to those who don't like the answers:

* Please produce evidence of ancient European phenotype.

* Please produce evidence of ancient European genotype.

Ancient K-zoids are nowhere in sight.

Keep dreaming, of caucazzzzoids.......

Keita was educated by a white scientist, Professor Larry Angel, and in fact *they do agree*, that Europeans are and admixed population, and are so not a race.

Keita:
SOY Keita
Arethusa

"I was a student of Larry Angel and am in some postion to comment on his views, which I know from conversation, the literature and personal correspondnce."

Racialists models, which imply non-overlapping gene pools, are clearly negated by Angel's work."


^ Bitter jackass repeate after Keita...

- Europeans admixed. [black genetic influence]

- Europeans *not a race. [racial models, clearly negated]

^ Now, please do, argue against Keita and his 'white professor's' pertaining this fact.

Try to distort it.

Claim Keita is only 'disagreeing' with Angel.

Try claiming that "if such exists", means Keita is doubting his own claims of admixture in Neolithic Greece, when he is really only qualifying 'black' as a genetic singularity [which is it of course not].

Or just ignore it and change the subject, since none of the above dissemblings can save you.

It's fun tormenting nazi losers like you with the truth and so destroying their racial myths. [Smile]

Picture spamming once more! All in a desparate effort to drown out the fact that Keita does not agree with Bowcock's analysis or Sforza type human population trees (dendrograms) and accompanying arguments.

quote:
Race in the context of a social construct is still valid.
quote:
That is a total strawmen as Keita is discussing biology.
That had nothing to do with Keita or his article but my own opinion on the validity, as I see it, of race as a social construct.

This was in reference to Keita:

the Bowcock/Sforza analysis does support the notion of race. That's why under the racial schema they would be secondary type or race, intermediates between two earlier differentiated population groups African and Asian. That's why he says it would be acceptable to those who believe in races. (Keita, 2001)

^ Which is why you avoided it.

quote:
akoben: first you say Keita is not agreeing or disagreeing with the analysis of Europeans as a secondary type etc etc [posted 12 October, 2008 02:12 PM]
quote:
rasolowitz squeals: illiterate miscitation and bald faced lie... intentionally lying... If you really wanted to quote others, you would cut and paste what they actually stated.
LOOLOLL Just as your other claims of alleged miscitation, after all your hysteria you end up showing that you in fact did say what I posted: that he neither agreed nor disagreed with Bowcock's analyses, ^ The above is Dr. Keita's specific assessment, and not a general agreement or disagreement with or about anyone or anything else.

^Of course this is BS. He was analyzing her work within the context of the persistence of racial thinking. He does not support the view that Europeans are a secondary type etc etc, the context of the quote was explained: that under the racial schema Europeans would be secondary type etc etc and you agreed with it!

If Keita does not believe in the racial schema how can he agree with the analysis that he sees as within said schema?! That you STILL harbor desires for Keita to see Europeans as a secondary type etc (because you initially thought he did) is evidenced by the fact that you want me to "refute" it, as according to you Keita meant it! [posted 13 October, 2008 09:20 PM]

But I ask again, oh confused one, how can I "refute" the notion of Europeans as a secondary type when they ARE NOT, only IF race were relevant and it is NOT. And how could Keita "mean it" when you admit he advanced no such theory?!?!

You poor confused self defeating imbecile, you obviously cannot make up your mind:

Rasol's premise IS what Keita argues that Europeans as a population ARE a secondary type due to admixture – Mary

"Keita never claimed that Europeans are a secondary type" – rasolwitz

Rasol's premise IS what Keita argues that Europeans as a population ARE a secondary type due to admixture – Mary

LOLOLOLOLOL

quote:

LOL So f**king what? Who denied he was educated by whites, and again for umpteenth time, show where I advance the notion of a pure Caucasian race?

This is nothing more than you latest straw to hide the real issue:

Keita not agreeing with Bowcock's analysis and Cavalli-Sforza's trees and the accompanying arguments: "Europeans, show as intermediates" between two earlier differentiated population groups African and Asian "contributions from Asia and Africa were estimated to be around two-thirds and one-third".

You tried to make it seem as if Keita was in agreement, "On this [the human population trees and accompanying analysis and percentages] particular Sforza is correct, and he is cited by Keita"[posted 20 September, 2008 08:28 PM]

The truth is Keita does not agree with it and you have yet to prove this!

Re Bowcock's analysis:

quote:
"this may be a problem given that the contributing groups seem to conform to received raciotypological schema but should be acceptable to those who believe in the existence of races."
Why should it be acceptable to those who believe in races rasolowitz?

Re human geographical population trees:

quote:
"The persistence of the racial paradigm (and not just names) is further illustrated by investigators who use dendrograms (trees) to assess to group similarities or dissimilarities, usually in quest of intraspecific phylogenies. The groups utilized usually conform to the old racial schema. Dendrograms are also used to illustrate the divergence of entities called human races or of populations used as their surrogates. This is problematic since few human populations, even authentic breeding ones, are so well differentiated (and independent) from each other as to support the distinctness implied by tree branches. The degree of drift has not been necessarily equal across space and time. The ubiquity and complexity of human migration patterns guarantee that branching points in trees will always be suspect. (Jorde 1985) Also, strictly speaking, studies can only inform about the groups used in the analysis. Therefore a study using Mbuti, a clan of Saame speakers, a Swedish village, and Vedda can only tell us about each of them. These groups should not be reified into other entities."
If as he says few human populations, even authentic breeding ones, are so well differentiated (and independent) from each other as to support the distinctness implied by tree branches how can he agree with an analysis that says a population arose as a consequence of admixture between already differentiated populations or you trees that purport to show "population distinctiveness"?

He does not agree, and you STILL failed to show this.

quote:
Try claiming that "if such exists", means Keita is doubting his own claims of admixture in Neolithic Greece
Digging up old straws from the past won't help you as you will still be required to show where I denied African admixture in Greece.

What I said was that he doesn't seem to agree with your childish grandstanding: "black as a powerful concept" and my definition from Webster is THE definition.(symptomatic of individuals suffering from low self esteem). Keita doubts the term's usefulness in biology.

Can't escape and still standing after all your obfuscations:

- Keita does not say Europeans are a secondary type (genotype) as you thought/and still think, and now want me to "refute"

- Keita does not agree with your dendrograms

- Keita does not classify human populations into "units" or types, whether fundamental/primary or secondary and puts them on trees

Now run along for another round of your Cavalli-Sforza and Bowcock picture spammg, that you have yet to show Keita is in agreement with.

Why Jackassoben? I must have asked you this questions more than 10 times.

Why would Europeans be a secondary type or race if race actually existed biologically?

Is it because of their intermediate genetic position due to being populated by Asian and African population/lineages?

quote:

That's why he says it would be acceptable to those who believe in races. (Keita, 2001)

Why? If Sforza and Bowcock both debunk racial existence in their work? Both analysis's from Bowcock and Sforza debunk race. This is what you fail to understand, this is also what you hate to admit.


If not, then how does Sforzas or Bowcocks dendrograms promote race, as you're saying?

You poor child. Go read what Keita says about dendrograms, units, types and population "distinctions" on tree branches. And while you're at it, show where he endorses the interpretation of Europeans being "intermediate" between two earlier differentiated populations: Asian and African, two-thirds and one-third respectively?

And prey tell, what is my "argument". Be careful how you answer this one coz it will really expose you. LOL

You fail to mention the punch line: races don't exist hence Europeans cannot be "intermediate" between two earlier differentiated populations: Asian and African, two-thirds and one-third respectively. That's the point he was making, you imbecile! He is not supporting that interpretation but highlighting it as evidence of the persistence of racial thinking!

I asked you to show where he supports Bowcock/Sforza analysis and you cant; only show how he sees it as being under the racial schema! Yes, that's right! Under the racial schema. But race doesn't exist so your analysis is flawed. End of story.

Not only do you have no credible academic support for your pathetic coat tailing of rasolowitz, who in turn is merely coat tailing the two white racialists in question, but you flipped on me, admitting that "Bowcock/Sforza analysis does support the notion of race", after saying the opposite "Of course it doesn't [support the notion of race], because it actually debunks race" Oh my...
 -

Your confusion steams from your refusal to actually read Keita and the context of the essay where the quote was glibly lifted out of context to support a position that he himself does not support. It was misleading to say the least.

I asked you to lay out in detail what my supposed "arguments" are, my "own idiocy", and still you cant do it? Whats taking so long? If you are "refuting" an argument then surely you can identify said argument? But you cant!

This is of course due to the fact that my alleged "arguments" are really your straws, which is why you cannot quote me saying Europeans/Caucasians are a pure or primary race or type.

This is exactly what you're eluding, jackass, for the hundredth time...... Yes Keita sees it under a racial schema blah blah, but why Ako?

Why would Europeans be a hybrid under a racial schema?

Why doesn't race exist?

Or simply since someone says it doesn't you just believe whatever you'd like without knowing why?


Other than this your posts are redundant. Also, stop your lies about rasol or I, proposing that race exists, because we actually debunked race ourselves as well, with the genetic data which you see as promoting race, which it doesn't.

Good that you admit that he sees Bowcock et al. analysis as being under the racial schema and we all know he does not agree with such schema. Rasolowitz thought he took no stance on the matter: "The above is Dr. Keita's specific assessment, and not a general agreement or disagreement with or about anyone or anything else."

But back to your confusion. Race does not exist because racial units and types, secondary or primary, do not exist. This is because 'few human populations, even authentic breeding ones, are so well differentiated (and independent) from each other"

So dumbo, "type definitions", whether primary or secondary, population differentiation and tree branching are all evidence of the persistence of racial thinking.

Type definitions, whether hybrid or primary:
quote:
"The strict racial approach constructs human diversity as being reducible to a fixed number of foundational, natural, and indivisible units (types), which consist of near uniform individuals. Variation from these units in this model is primarily explained by admixture. Thus there were primary and secondary races."
Hence Europeans are not a secondary type or race "intermediate" between two earlier differentiated populations: Asian and African, two-thirds and one-third respectively.

hence Bowcock/Sforza (and their followers, you fools): fall under the racial schema.

The Sforza Dendrograms:
quote:
"The persistence of the racial paradigm (and not just names) is further illustrated by investigators who use dendrograms (trees) to assess to group similarities or dissimilarities, usually in quest of intraspecific phylogenies. The groups utilized usually conform to the old racial schema. Dendrograms are also used to illustrate the divergence of entities called human races or of populations used as their surrogates. This is problematic since few human populations, even authentic breeding ones, are so well differentiated (and independent) from each other as to support the distinctness implied by tree branches. The degree of drift has not been necessarily equal across space and time. The ubiquity and complexity of human migration patterns guarantee that branching points in trees will always be suspect. (Jorde 1985) Also, strictly speaking, studies can only inform about the groups used in the analysis. Therefore a study using Mbuti, a clan of Saame speakers, a Swedish village, and Vedda can only tell us about each of them. These groups should not be reified into other entities."
I ask you again what is my alleged idiotic argument you think you are refuting? why no answer? Dunce...

Again you ignore my questions and post long winded redundant crackpot posts to make yourself seem intelligent, but the fact of the matter is until you directly answer these questions, you are, as always, debunked.......


Why would Europeans be a hybrid under a racial schema?


Tell me how Sforzas or Bowcocks dendrograms promote race?


This is what you're falsely attributing to myself and other posters, that we believe in race, when in fact, when using Cavallis dendrogram we're debunking race, so actually no one on here promotes racial classifications.


Sforzas dendrogram debunks the myth of a European "race" you illiterate jackass. If not, then like I said tell me how it does promote race????

LOL You mean crackpot posts you cannot refute:

- Your human population dendrograms fall within the racial schema, Keita explains why

- Keita does not agree with Sforza and Bowcock's analysis

^ Deal with that!

The only redundant piece of contradictory crap is that fact that you admit that Bowcock and Sforza analysis falls under the racial schema YET you want me refute it! This is because like Bowcock et al. you do believe in the racial schema!
quote:
Sforzas dendrogram debunks the myth of a European "race" you illiterate jackass.
"The persistence of the racial paradigm (and not just names) is further illustrated by investigators who use dendrograms (trees) to assess to group similarities or dissimilarities" - Keita

What Sforzas/Bowcocks debunks, silly boy, is the notion of Europeans as a pure race. But the methods and conclusions drawn (Europeans are a secondary type intermediate between blah blah blah) still falls with the said schema! This is over your head of course because you refuse to read Keita's essay and understand the context. Racialist thinking is no longer in its pure form but it still persist today, hence the persistence of racial thinking!
 -
The point being, if you use a method that is connected with the racial paradigm how can you debunk the said paradigm? Who is the illiterate one? LOLOL

See what you don't seem to realize, silly boy, is that even the notion of a population at its foundation being an "admixture" between two differentiated groups is itself apart of the racialist thinking, according to Keita. Go read Keita and stop making a fool out of yourself.

The fact that Sforza has to show his "fact" re Europeans by using a method from the racial paradigm is further proof that he falls within the said schema and his not really debunking race. That's the whole point Keita is making. dunce...

Why would Europeans be a hybrid under a racial schema?
Because Sforzas and Bowcocks show they are not pure race. According to them Europeans are an intermediate population, a secondary type between two earlier differentiated population groups blah blah blah. But as Keita says, this itself is another play on the racial schema. Hence race only appears to be debunked as that 'debunking" falls within the said schema.

More redundancy and lies as usual.

Never did I say Sforza or Bowcocks analysis supported race you nitwit. I said they actually debunk race you imbecilic troll. Please show me where I said Sforza promotes race? You lying fool.

Nope, this is a dodge and not and answer, as it's KEITA who is saying that Europeans are not a race.

It is Keita who is saying that because Europeans are not actually a race, the entire racial schema collapses.

This is his position.

The title of his thesis *The Myth of Race* is so indicated.

The title is not - * I don't agree with Bowcock*.

The title is not - * I don't like dendrograms*.

These arguments are the produce of your jackass troll whose title effectively is:

"I don't like what Keita is saying, and so I try to avoid it, or change the subject"

Why would Europeans be a secondary type or race if race actually existed biologically?

Is it because of their intermediate genetic position due to being populated by Asian and African population/lineages?

precisely. as short vector hybrids, Europeans fail to model as a race. because of this, the race model itself fails.

Any intelligent person knows that Keita creates dendrograms himself.

Yet you still try to pretend that Keita 'opposes' dendrograms, to evade the fact, that he uses them to debunk race.

Keep trying to delude yourself jackass, and let us know if you ever succeed....

I doubt Jackassoben will ever show up around here again, after this. The jackass madmans ongoing nonsensical remarks of Keita debunking dendrograms, while using them himself, is only one stab in the heart for him, hes been thoroughly tortured and beaten.


The kid will never understand Keita's actual usage of Bowcock, which was actually to debunk the persistence of race, simply because Bowcock points out that Europeans are genetically hybrids, populated/founded upon original OOA/Asian lineages and recent African lineages, which debunks Europeans notion of racial persistence of a "Caucasian race", separate from Africans and the rest of world.

I'm pretty sure this upsets your(Jackassoben) on the low Euro ego, but it is what it is and facts stand strong.

Mary, come on, stop posting pics of yourself and try to back up your anti-African position here. Its been two months and still you run liek a bitch. Everyone is eagerly waiting to see how you are going to do it:

"Is it clear yet that there is a STOLEN LEGACY and it is perfectly valid" - great sage

"Greece *did not stop* getting cultural input from the Nile Valley into the classical period, and that was another tacit point which was to be gleaned from the example provided by the aforementioned BBC Science citation; it was not referring to archaic Greece, but as a matter of fact, it was referring to classical Greece." - ausarianstein

quote:

LMAO @ rasolowitz trying to sneak this one in again after being debunked on this point before

Again, Keita does not agree with Bowcock analysis of Europeans being a "secondary type"(genotype as you thought), intermediate between already differentiated populations as,
quote:
"few human populations, even authentic breeding ones, are so well differentiated and independent from each other as to support the distinctness implied by tree branches. "The ubiquity and complexity of human migration patterns guarantee that branching points in tree will always be suspect."
But Bowcock's supporters can take some comfort as her analysis "should be acceptable to those who believe in the existence of races"

LOLOLOL

Still standing:

- Keita does not say Europeans are a secondary type (genotype) as you thought/and still think, and now want me to "refute"

- Keita does not agree with your dendrograms

- Keita does not classify human populations into "units" or types, whether fundamental/primary or secondary and puts them on trees

Now run along for another round of your Cavalli-Sforza and Bowcock picture spammg, that you have yet to show Keita is in agreement with.

quote:
you admit that Bowcock and Sforza analysis falls under the racial schema YET you want me refute it!
quote:
Please show me where I said Sforza promotes race? You lying fool.
Didn't you say, "Yes Keita sees it [Bowcock and Sforza analysis] under a racial schema"

Or are you changing your position now like rasolowitz:

"Rasol's premise IS what Keita argues that Europeans as a population ARE a secondary type due to admixture" – Mary

"Keita never claimed that Europeans are a secondary type" – rasolwitz

LOL No silly, Keita's use of Bowcock was to highlight the persistence of racial thinking among his contemporaries. E.g.

1) The notion that populations can be at their foundation made up of earlier differentiated groups/populations.

2) The use of dendrograms that purport to show "population distinctness".

A simple reading of the article in question would reveal this to you dumbasses. He was not agreeing with her analysis or trying to debunk the old Caucasian race myth, a myth that no credible geneticists advances today. Only "Evil Euros" and "debunker" who provide easy targets for play "scholars" like you fools.

^^Of course Keita is debunking racial persistence but he doesn't debunk genetics. Which you fail to address.

Nope, quote me on it, show me were I said Sforza promotes race. What I said and have been saying is, if race exists then Europeans would be a genetically intermediate population between Oceanics and Africans.

Due to their recent post OOA Neolithic African admixture into their population.

Sorry, jackass, you can't quote other people as 'evidence' of changes in my position.

You would have to quote me - and *only* me, to validate your claim.

But of course, your claims are bogus, so it's impossible for you to validate them.

Isn't that so, desparate jackass?



FACT:The quote: "Keita never claimed that Europeans are a secondary type or race" – rasol

^ Is written by me, correcting you.

FACT: You are the one who claimed that Keita was advocating 'secondary races', before you even understood that the quote was from Keita.

FACT: We had to explain to you both who the quote was from, and what it meant. You were, and still are, clueless.

FACT: You are the one, who was forced to reverse your position.

But it doesn't matter, because you're a jackass who ends up looking stupid no matter what 'position' he takes.

^ Not just Sforza, not just Bowcock. All genetics distance studies affirm the intermediacy of Europeans due to post OOA African admixture.

Which is why jackass akoben doesn't try to dispute this fact of genetics.

He does the only thing he can do, when confronted with indisputable fact.

Stall, delay, distract, misquote.

But, it doesn't help him....

Why is it that we have all these threads in which the more intelligent members of the forum repeatedly try to school the same immature, self-deluding jackass over and over again? These people are like religious fundamentalists; nothing will persuade them, because they are not interested in the facts. They only want to cling to their delusions. Debating them is an exercise in futility.

only facts which jackass/akoben does not like, but can't refute.

 -

Europeans show as a genetic mixture, 2/3 Asian, 1/3 African - Sforza

^ Debate will begin as soon as someone can site genetic evidence to the contrary.

Don't hold your breadth waiting for it though. [Smile]
