This just proves Alfred Rosenberg’s theory that effeminate white liberals with narrow faces are descended from the master race of Atlantis, while ordinary white people with wide faces are the new Untermenschen: savage, racist, inferior, and needing to be ruled by their betters.
Researchers in Delaware claim to have found markers for a biological predisposition to being racist.
.
Sure, why not? They have also found the region of genetic markers for gay genes, so the conclusions are incontrovertible. Science, ya know, is the purview of the Donkey Party, so “they” say, unless your name is Senator ‘Dick’ Durbin, (D-Il.)
Judging by the examples the video showed of a genetically-predisposed-to-racism face and a genetically-non-predisposed-to-racism face, apparently, the study assumed only white people can be racists. People who live in the real world know this is not so. And, to his credit, the little science reporter-guy picked right up on the sinister subtext this ‘study’ exudes.
Blowback

Everything is racist. Why not just completely run the term into the ground.

Of course it is. It’s white and it shows up on my driver’s license when I show up to vote Republican.
/really?

Sure, Michelle Obama’s face is.

If you are White or White Latino or a Black dude acting white. It all depends on your perception of White.

Is your face racist?
I dunno, but it is definately evil though because it has a goatee. Personally, I don’t trust it.

Scientists are Imbeciles…

Traditional masculine traits are bad, in so many words. I wonder what constitutes a misandrist face.

If only there were a science that measured distances on the cranium and made judgments based on that. With that, we could end racism all together!
calbear on February 26, 2013 at 10:59 PM
And of course the only examples they used were white faces, who could have possibly seen that coming?
clearbluesky on February 26, 2013 at 11:05 PM
I wonder what Barack Obama’s and Louis Farrakhan’s faces reveal about them. Robert Menendez has a short-wide face. Hmmm.
flataffect on February 26, 2013 at 11:25 PM
Unless your skin is at least as dark as Obama’s, you ARE RAAAAACIST!
Unless you oppose spending cuts of any kind in government, you are RAAAAACIST!
If you think Obama should be held responsible for his cataclysmic failures in any way at all, you are RAAAAACIST!
wildcat72 on February 26, 2013 at 11:45 PM
Terrible reporting. What questions were the subjects asked? What were the answers that were considered racist?
Without more information, the report is useless.
All we know is that some scientists consider that some answers to some questions are racist.
I already knew that.
hepcat on February 27, 2013 at 12:32 AM
scientists could be studying to find the cure for cancer, but instead, they do this???
Sachiko on February 27, 2013 at 2:20 AM
Same question comes to mind each and every time I see one of these bogus “studies”; how much money did this one cost us?
surrounded on February 27, 2013 at 6:33 AM
Well if it’s genetic then they can’t be held accountable or something right?
Socmodfiscon on February 27, 2013 at 8:22 AM
They used phrenology to determine if people are racist. Think about that.
coondawg on February 27, 2013 at 8:35 AM
Bingo! And, it would be discriminatory to attempt to change them in any way, or to punish them for their actions!
