5 days agoI think the downvoting comes from the aspect that even your cited sources have nothing to do with the original story. Because the ethnicities you are talking about have nothing to do with the black/white or African/Caucasian basis of modern racism. And hence the scientifically correct differences between peoples in different parts of Africa in your cited studies are not helping in any way, nor do they prove anything in regards to the original question.
That’s the thing about racism I think: it’s never really making sense, because it’s based on pure pseudo science of the 19th/20th century.
In the German translation it still says “Golf von Mexiko (Golf von Amerika)”. But still crazy how only one American company seems to be necessary to integrate changes of that geographical magnitude. As dumb as it is, it gets done.
