And if the public would react with backlash or demonization, is that bad for society? To oppose scientific research that results in something we don't like?
To be clear, I'm not suggesting I believe this to be the case. I have no objections with interracial dating, procreation, etc. I just thought about how society might react to hearing something scientific they don't like.
They'd respond with backlash or demonization.
They'd respond with indifference.
They'd respond with sketpicism.
They'd respond with support.

Hypothetically, if a scientist (s) conducted some sort of study that suggests that interracial procreation was a bad idea, how would the public react?
I guess most people would respond with backlash or demonization. There are many people in the world who are mixed race and they wouldn't like to hear that they were a bad idea. Not to mention those who are in interracial relationships or marriages. If they had a bad reaction it would be good for society because it would mean that we're moving forward and leaving racism and racial segregation behind.
Yeah.. science doesn't exactly have a spotless track record in race relations and accuracy. So I would hope there would be skepticism. But I don't think it would make much of a difference if it was proved, like how many people still get with people with genetic disadvantages and/or disabilities that the kid will inherit. Usually you like the person and don't consider much "scientifically" until down the line, when you decide you can handle whatever happens because you have each other. Or something romantic like that.. 🤍🤎🖤
Actually scientists conducted that interracial is a good idea, because you have better genes then. Evolution looks like this that you abort bad genes and only pass good ones in procreation. If you only procreate in a small group it will eventually lead to being vulnerable to some illnesses
It's virtually impossible to get funding to study racial differences. The fear is the results will lead to justification of discrimination or at worse genocide. Even if the results proved no difference or even something positive people would dismiss them as fake.
Covid has taught me that you could show the whole world that you have a solution, there will still be such a significant portion of the population that refuses to believe your everh word that the solution becomes non-viable.
So, in other words, nothing. Nothing would happen.
Realistically it would be canceled. But if people weren't little bitches. People would all the scientist a little bitch for trying to tell me how to live my life. And there would be the collectivists who would worship the study like the Bible.
