Not at all Jazzman. The point was that racism is bad and even worse, stupid. Kennard and co are indulging a racist effort. I think that's stupid and harmful.

I can't believe that people in the 21st century still try to jam people into some alleged 'race' then use government power over them based on their race. Or chromosomes. If people choose to hang out together for any reason, that's fine by me, but it gives me the creeps to see government monopolies treating people by race. Hitler did that to no good effect and destroyed a vast amount of human prospect and happiness.

Also, partly funny and I'm not sure about satirical. I just had a look and there was sarcasm there... for example, 'top quality DNA' is making fun of the idea that people have that some people have specialness because of their ethnicity. I don't think groups of people have 'top quality DNA'. They have a very wide range of very defective DNA! That's why we get cystic fibrosis, sickle-cell anaemia [which is good for the group if they live with malaria] and other unpleasant DNA effects.

How come you got confused? Which bit did you think racist? It was the contrary!!
