You forgot about the Mongolians Christina. NEVER forget about the Mongolians, i'm pretty sure they are planning round 2

Re: There may be 4 broadly recognized races, out there.

According to Arthur de Gobineau, French diplomat and author of The Inequality of Human Races, there are three races: Caucasoid/white, Asian/Mongoloid and Negroid/black.

Anything else is a mix or hybrid. There is no such thing as a Middle Eastern "race". The people that live there are mostly of mixed race. The same goes for a lot of Latin Americans.

Re: There may be 4 broadly recognized races, out there.

But the big three is the old category. It creates problems. The old 'three race' system classed Indians and Arabs as white.

How do you explain South Asians in India? The Dravidian peoples in the south are certainly not white or even close to Semitic peoples.

Re: There may be 4 broadly recognized races, out there.

So, Middle Easterners are Negroid? They don't look Mongoloid.

yeah, blame your race for your lot in life instead of the fact you are slow.

He's saying Middle Easterners are white.

This is Casey Kasem, the famous Arab-American disc jockey. He's more or less white.

Same goes for Ralph Nader. He's of Lebanese descent.

Same with George Noory. Host of the late night paranormal radio show, coast to coast am.

Re: There may be 4 broadly recognized races, out there.

Exactly. And tell me Marlo Thomas is not white. America's sweetheart. She's half Arab.

Some are white; others are clearly of mixed race.

Re: There may be 4 broadly recognized races, out there.

If there are three races as your theory says, Arabs are white, but they only mixed with the local populations they conquered under Mohammad.

I think race theory is more complicated than that though. Morons claim the dark hair and olive skin of Italians, Greeks and Arabs comes from black Africans. That's absurd. Dark hair and olive skin is a "Caucasian" trait as well.

Re: There may be 4 broadly recognized races, out there.

Mideast is not a race.

They are a mixed black/white kind of thing like some Hispanics.

If there was a fourth race it would be aborigines from Austrialia.

They have unique characteristics that other races don't have.

Re: There may be 4 broadly recognized races, out there.

You forget the Dravidian peoples of south India. They are not "white" like northern Indians. They are a separate sub-race.

Re: There may be 4 broadly recognized races, out there.

Genetically they are related to Australians!

40k ago somehow they fucking floated to Australia and I would love to know how they did that.

Re: There may be 4 broadly recognized races, out there.

Apparently on crude boats, not bad for mungos. The earliest conclusively human remains found in Australia are those of Mungo Man LM3 and Mungo Lady, which have been dated to around 50,000 years BP. Recent archaeological evidence from the analysis of charcoal and artefacts revealing human use suggests a date as early as 65,000 BP.

Melting down over top boy

Re: There may be 4 broadly recognized races, out there.

That is CRAZY!

If you think about it, people leaving India 40 to 70K years ago could not have had any idea Australia was there. But, they got enough people, supplies, and so forth to all float BY ACCIDENT to Australia.

They had to have enough people to build a population so it must have been a fairly large group.

It's really hard to imagine.

An alternate explanation is that they had better boats than we imagine and were able to have room for supplies and whatnot.

Whatever the case, from what I know about Aboriginies, the trip was a bad idea. They don't seem to have developed but probably more like degenerated in that land.

I have been on forums with many Euro Australians and they never have anything positive to say. It's worse than how many Americans view the worst blacks here.

Re: There may be 4 broadly recognized races, out there.

Interesting theory. It would explain the Melanesians of New Guinea too. Do you have a link to an explanation?

My real life partner is Dravidian.

Ask him if he likes Sadhguru.

Re: There may be 4 broadly recognized races, out there.

I'll check. His family is bizarre. Lol.

His dad was a member of Bhagwan Shri Rajneesh's Osho cult. They're the ones who took over a town in Oregon, if you remember. My guy doesn't follow that stuff and thinks his dad is crazy.

Re: There may be 4 broadly recognized races, out there.

Yes, I remember that very well.

It went oddly.

Sadhguru is practical and funny and does not seem shady to me at all.

Re: There may be 4 broadly recognized races, out there.

It's a bit bizarre to me to have a "father-in-law" who advocated free love and orgies. Lol. His father is very homophobic though.

Re: There may be 4 broadly recognized races, out there.

I remember that cult pretty well.

The goal is to not be attached to anything and not be hung up on ideas. Most people would not feel comfortable at an orgy so that CAN mean they have a bunch of hangups. However, the biggest hang up in that kind of philosophy is needing pleasure.

So, on one hand staging an orgy helps people get past their hangups, but then again staging an orgy is indulging in pleasure that takes away from detaching from the world, lol.

You can't go to orgies and be a guru.

Gurus would not be interested in orgies because it's childish to be hung up on sex.

So, they were kind of getting it wrong lol. They were stuck in this stage of getting over things they kept repeating.

True dat!

Re: There may be 4 broadly recognized races, out there.

Explain!

I am very curious about differences between types of people.
