No, because subspecies are delineated by internal and external morphological differences. All humans have the SAME morphology internally. Also, more often than not, subspecies are tied to a specific location/environment whereas humans are not. It would be more accurate than 'race', though.​
You’re spitting facts. Ppl conveniently ignore the DNA similarity in humans all over no matter location (over 99.9%). Race is 100% a social construct, which has good and bad uses. The idea of race is not inherently evil or wrong, but there’s almost no genetic difference between any race. Phenotypes and expressed alleles don’t make you a whole new species.

Those are a result of location, environment, and evolution.

'Racial groups' don't exist.​

No they are not! Human variation is greatest in Africa, but depletes to oblivion when dealing with Whites and Orientals. This genetic diversity is what determines a population true potential.

The crakkka’s “science” is responsible for creating this situation. I didn’t need anyone’s “science” to tell me what I already knew anyway. The only constant in this fukked up equation is the white man. And that’s the case whether you’re discussing race, religion, economics, law and whatever else you can think of.

Going to check on the first part, but second part is bit of a reach.
Conquest and imperialism is the primary reason that people aren't tied to specific locations/environments. And even then, that's relatively recent in human history.

I would argue that race is most similar to subspecies. Yes we're all the same species, but perhaps there's enough difference that race=subspecies.

I believe one of the biggest travesty is the neglect on the emphasis on the slight, but present internal and external differences. As this is applied to other animal genus.

Breh, modern humans left Africa almost 200,000 years ago.​

We share like 98% with chimps. 1% difference is huge! .50% is also significant. The elephant in the room.

Notice you had to include "almost" no genetic difference.
