Please explain why science is racist and why your involvement in a social science affirms that. I'm still not seeing where you're getting at with that.

You saying "your pretty sure he means" really does not justify any of his posts if he can not articulate that himself.

Classical thinkers[edit]
Benjamin Isaac, in The Invention of Racism in Classical Antiquity (2006), reports that scientific racism is rooted in Græco–Roman antiquity.[8] A prime example is the 5th century BC treatise Airs, Waters, Places by Hippocrates, about which Pseudo-Aristotle notes
The idea that dark people are cowards, and light people courageous fighters, is found already in Airs, Waters, Places.[9]
ah, how times have changed
