    Race is a social construct, dog breeds very much aren’t. They were bred for a reason. Numerous countries, including my own, have banned pitbulls for that reason.

      Red herring: That is an entirely different argument from the one I’m replying to and has absolutely no bearing on the point I’m trying to make.

      That being said you should really pick up a history book sometime, slaves were also sometimes bred in much the same way dogs are now.

      Plus dog breeds are also mostly social constructs, to the point that the majority of Pitbull attacks are not actually done by Pitbulls but were misidentified.

        It’ll be hard for breeds of slaves to become “lesser” beings because it’s still humans v humans. There are some groups for example that are slightly better at diving because they live near water, and black people do fare better in the sun compared to white people. But again, the differences there are negligible.
