I'm not saying there isn't some taboo ground there but based on what I've seen, science dismantles the old white supremacists narrative more than it holds it up.

Like the very idea of race has no basis in biology and the way we categorized people by race were largely based on superficial cues that don't match up with specific genetically distinct groups.
