        If after the following steps:

        1. Get 2 Psychopaths to make a baby (let’s call this subject A).
        2. Take subject A at birth and nurture it in an environment previously proven to not create psychopaths.
        3. Test subject A after a threshold age.

        Get statistical data.

        If result:

        1. subject A is psychopath with 99% + confidence, then psychopaths are a race.
        2. subject A is psychopath with < 99% confidence, then psychopaths are NOT a race.

        Just to be clear, I will not endorse this study.

          It’s already been shown that psychopaths can live relatively normal lives when given proper treatment. There’s even a story of one such brain researcher (James Fallon) finding out his own brain structures in an MRI result showed a tendency to psychopathy, even though he was a fairly average man who was conducting such a study.

            In that case, wouldn’t we want to say, instead, that the researcher’s environment was such that he developed mild tendencies towards psychopathy, but not enough to be socially relevant.
            I would go so far to say that the average person has a tendency to psychopathy, considering the social state of our civilisation.

        Are Asians considered to be yellow or something?

        I only think of emojis, the Simpsons, and LEGO characters.

          I mean yeah that’s a pretty infamous kind of racialized portrayal that you’ll see in like old propaganda cartoons or whatever.

            It’s because they’re both fat and have similar faces though. I never considered yellow. The Chinese use Pooh to make fun too. So I don’t think it actually meant racially.

              Maybe so. For many Pepe was just a frog.

              I don’t find much value in those kinds of portrayals to begin with, so I have a pretty low bar for defending their use.

                The only reason I use it is that it’s banned speech that is banned because it specifically hurts the feelings of a dictator enough to ban it. That is a huge plus for using Pooh Bear for me. Everyone should be able to call their leaders a shithead.
