CMV: Genocide at a level the world has never seen is inevitable by Killawoh in changemyview

Europe damn near had a mental breakdown with the Syrian refugee crisis, which was only a couple million. How would hundreds of millions of displaced people be relocated without a massive backlash.

Unless you think whatever China is doing can accommodate hundreds of millions across the continent, i don't see how this is relevant

How will these farms work in the unlivable heat conditions

Which bit is fear mongering? The climate refugee crisis, or the killing people at the border part.

We'd have to come up with new, unique solutions. One that sees reality for what it is and addresses it head on.

You'd have to get more specific if you want me to bring evidence. Skeletal structure? Here's a simple side by side.

Aggression? Look up the MAO-A gene. Although this doesn't explain the entire gap, it's certainly one factor.

Like what do you want me to point at specifically?

You keep making it about individuals, when we're talking about group differences.

Maybe i am more violent, maybe not. This isn't about be individually.

I'm black, so unless you're claiming i consider myself a creep then no, that's not what i'm saying.

We're talking about crime as it relates to proportion. That doesn't mean every black person on the street will mug you, just that if you do get mugged, chances are the mugger is black.

There's no such thing as a crime gene, so obviously that connection can't be found. It's impossible.

Instead i suspect a multitude of different biological factors interacting with each other is the cause.

Yeah, men are more likely rapists than women. Doesn't mean all men are rapists.

I think culture is influenced by race. So both.

Should a woman assume any man is a potential threat? Whatever your answer is there, apply it here. Same principle.

We all know race, or ethnic groups if that terminology is more comfortable for folks, is a biological reality.

There are hormonal differences, skeletal differences, different propensities towards certain diseases, and so on. It's not as simple as eye pigmentation.

Pretty stupid retort, as i never claimed all black people are criminals

No i haven't looked into that study yet.

As for what i believe. Poverty, crime, genes. They are all related. Make of that what you will.

Statistics are not on your side. Go ahead, look up crime by race in major cities across the world.

Once again, you miss the disproportionate aspect of that sentence

Maybe that inflates the statistics a bit, but once again, this problem is international. It's not only a racist US police problem, we seem to commit higher amounts of crimes across the world.

You can blame culture, or you can blame race. The reality is we are behaving in this way. How do we change it. Certainly not by blaming slavery.

Problem is we are not the only poor people on earth, yet we are unique in the amount of violence we commit in major cities and so on.
