I can't imagine which of the population geneticists who speak out against scientific racism that would claim that all human populations are exactly the same on socially valued traits. First because the claim is clearly false, and second because it would make their jobs pointless.

What *socially valued* traits would they assert they vary on? I haven’t seen many articles that are comfortable with that assertion. And I’ve seen plenty, including Saini’s book, that assert the opposite.

Or we acknowledge that different cultures have different values for all known social traits and therefore prefer not inviting a philosophical mess of miscommunication and misunderstanding. And be very careful (which we can; the public/mdeia cannot) when discussing such research.

I certainly don't object to those claims : ) I do object to trying to pin anti-racism on a flimsy empirical edifice that is likely to crumble in the next few years.

Equality of opportunity is not equality of results. Equality of results ends up all equal as emaciated corpses in shallow graves. Equal opportunity is what we have today in the USA for a good 50 years.

Right, and equality under the law, which is crucial, doesn't require that we are all clones.
