But sex makes way much more of a difference. Racial differences are only expressed in culture over a long period of time. (assuming two groups starting out equal)
True... But sexual differences, too, are only expressed over a long period of time.
The issue is, since the first cells started co-mingling and forming colony cells, a LOT of long periods of time have passed. And since the first monkeys noticed they were losing a lot of body hair and standing more upright, a LOT of long periods of time have passed.
"Racial differences are only expressed over a long period of time" is a great pithy statement, that is meaningless when that time period has already passed. Eye shape, skin color, testosterone and estrogen saturation, eyesight acuity, disease resistance, disease vulnerability, these differences ALREADY exist, among hundreds more. Australia's fascist lockdowns are defended with "the native people have zero coronavirii in their racial history, and so are particularly vulnerable compared to white and black and asian people.", and telling the native tribe "hey, just identify as white, you're pretty pale-skinned all things considered, Italians count after all" will NOT suddenly make them disease-resistant. It's biology, not "culture".
