I'm not referring to ethnicity. I am referring to "race", hence me saying "race". What you're saying about ethnicity is true, but this has no bearing on my post where I responded to someone who lumped all black people together.

Edit: in fact that's the very thing I would say when someone tries to say that race is scientific. There's no common gene cluster for race. We just decided to group people by skin color, which is as arbitrary as eye color or hair color. Ethnicity, however, has a genetic basis due to generations of mating and through out history is the better indicator of identity.
