RULES
- Be respectful: no harassment, hate speech, bigotry, and/or trolling.
- Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including heavily implicative subject matter when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible.
- Avoid controversial topics (e.g. politics or societal debates).
- Stay calm: Don’t post angry or to vent or complain. We are a place where everyone can forget about their everyday or not so everyday worries for a moment. Venting, complaining, or posting from a place of anger or resentment doesn't fit the atmosphere we try to foster at all. Feel free to post those on !goodoffmychest@lemmy.world

MODERATORS
I think you're right, but imo the disagreement i feels like really stem from the way you put it, as you talk about race in a biological science while they think you're talking about ethnicity(social science?), and then there's this odd fixation with no compromise which kinda what caused the friction, even though i think both party might agree with each other.
Also reddit and online forum is mostly made up of weird people so idk.

Read the introduction. It's complicated but mostly race is arbitrary. But that's the whole discussion I want to bring to people for awareness of concept and language.
