Why are humans such racist pigs? ??? >:(

Hi no Seijin

Because they think that in real life, there really are separate races.  It is inconvenient for them to know that evidence points out that all humans originated from Africa.  They also throw out genetics.

I would like to point out that there is no real advantage in being black or white.  Dark-skinned people are less likely to get cancer, but are more likely to get rickets, a disease caused by the lack of vitamen D, which the sun helps make; their dark skin doesn't allow for a lot of vitamen D to be manufactured in the skin.  Light-skinned people, on the other hand, are less likely to get rickets, since their skin can absorb more of the sun's rays, but they are more likely to get cancer because of this.  It's a trade-off.  Neither is superior to the other.

How did this evolution come about?  Humans moved north and south.  They farther they were from the equator, the lighter they became because being black wasn't beneficial.  Lighter babies survived more, enabling them to reach reproduction age.  The humans who stayed near the equator are darker because it was more beneficial to be darker in color.  The lighter babies died more often.

See, there is no such thing as races in the real world.  People only use them to label each other.

Is Gandy supposed to be Ghandi?  Just checking.

Yeah, they were't too bad.  Saying all humans are bad is highly inaccurate.  The sad thing is, the bad people get more attention than the good people.

Gorons are superior, goro.

Racism is just a bunch of stereotypes, which are for lazy people. Never believe a stereotype, especially if it jumps right out in front of you.

Oh, and Hi no Seijin, nice job explaining natural selection! ;)

True not all humans are pigs. but sometimes the bad outweigh the good people..

MagmarFire

I guess that's because the bad is much more easily noticeable than the good. It is pretty strange, though...

Hi no Seijin

Nothing in this world makes sense. :P

And thanks, Mag.  That was all from memory.  Didn't have to look anything up.

Well, I hopr one day humans and Gorons can all live together peacefully, goro.

MagmarFire

Well, if we were in a pinch, we would probably more easily settle our differences and solve it. After all, there ARE no races when everyone's in a pinch, right?

humans, by their nature, are violent, warlike psychopaths. humans can't exist in peace.
