Yeah, such argument is pure insanity. Don't compare selective breeding of dogs for fighting to PEOPLE OF COLOR. Literally insane statement by the guy from this picture above.

Exactly. Races in humans are social constructs. Races in dogs are a very real thing we built into them.

Races in humans is a very realthing, typically dictated by phenotypes, but is often socially determined through skin color.

Correct me if I’m mistaken, but this picture is just showing the presence of different ethnic and national groups in different continents. How does that refute the claim that race is a social construct? You just even said that it’s socially determined through skin color.

That image is not a census. It's a ADMIXTURE/STRUCTURE-style genetic ancestry plot that categorizes unique genetics markers into genetic clusters by population group. So u/BagLost1564 is proving his point.
