  • My specific argument is with you comparing differences in dog breeds to phrenology. I’m not saying that dogs of a specific breed are more aggressive; Im saying that comparing dog breeds on a morphological level is not the same as comparing human races on a morphological level. Phrenology is a pseudoscience specifically because human races do not vary morphologically, especially not in skull shape. You can easily measure a dog’s skull to tell a Great Dane from a Chihuahua, which is why I used those breeds as an example.


  • Im sorry but can you not see how a Chihuahua and a Great Dane are physically different from one another? One can entirely fit into the others mouth. I’m not arguing that Pit hysteria isnt founded in racism, but the concept that dogs breeds cannot be any more different from each other than human “races” are is insane.

    Your own sources above specifically state that different breeds are identifiable through genetic testing, idk exactly what else you want from me here.




  • Yeah this and this are absolutely more different from each other than a black person and a white person are from each other. Dogs have been selectively bred for ten thousand years, and they’ve been very specifically bred for different roles, literally changing their physical shape. Human beings have not, we’re all pretty much the same. Unless you’re going to argue that domestication and animal husbandry are fake then I do not see how this is equivalent to differences in melanin production.
