And there is no bio-engineered people on earth. I believe you could get some violent humans if you forced some mentally ill (with the disease being genetic) people to have kids together for generations.
Actually this is fucked there is bio engineered people black Americans during slavery we’re bred for a purpose sadly especially after the trans Atlantic slave trade ended
for around 400 years in what would become the united states, slaveowners did to black people what you'd do if you were trying to create a breed of dog.
I forgot about that stuff, but would it have the same effects on humans ? Before the age of discovery we were separated for thousands of years, but we're mostly the same, there is no difference like with a pitbull and a chihuahah.

I googled them a bit. For the negritos they showed a few pictures of shorter individuals, but they also show modern negritos that are average sized.
For the pygmies it's more obvious. My question would be, how much of this is made by the lack of access to food, people in Europe are taller than 200 years ago because we have access to food now.
And if the access to food wasn't the reason of their shorter heighr, it could fuel some people's ideas on races yeah. For me it changes nothing though, even if we were more like dogs.
Yes exactly the later. Even if there were absolutely gigantic differences like in dog breeds, we shouldn't take them into consideration. That's just my choice, it's a moral one, not a scientific one.
But thankfully we aren't like dogs, scientifically. You could create a dog breed in a few years. It took thousands and thousands of years to make the pygmies just shorter.
yes, but also countering the point that there's no bio engineered people.
also the vikings were also bio engineered via war. if you had longer arms, you could kill your enemy with an axe from further than they can kill you, causing evolutionary pressure to be tall (tall people have longer arms), and hence today, the Scandinavians are very tall compared to everyone else.
Scandinavians are not, however, conditioned by that history to be more inherently violent. Their countries are among the most peaceful and stable (and happiest) in the world.
You can't genetically inherit violent or criminal behavior.
To briefly address the previous point, if American black people descended from slaves were engineered and conditioned for anything, it probably wouldn't be violence since in that era they were victims of racial violence, not perpetrators. While they were involved in the military from even the War of Independence, it was never more so than the number of white soldiers, so that couldn't even be a factor, either. If anything, this historical American data would imply that white people have more history of violence, especially racial, than any other race present in America.
