[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The whole concept of bloodline is racist 19th c. pseudoscience sold to middle and upper class US whites to make them not just anti-black and anti-Native American, but anti-immigrant. In all likelihood, wiping out your FIL’s bloodline would have been a 1930s eugenicist’s wet dream. This is what happens when a poor education in US history meets Trumpism. I’d keep my son away from Grandpa’s ideas about bloodline if I were you.[/quote] This. And it's a concept that many parents passed down to their children and grandchildren in the early 20th century to boost white people's self esteem. (Note, am white person in a family where older people reference these sorts of things.) Eugenics was still very popular pre 1950. Heck, people were sterilized up to the 1970s in the US. Tell your kid not to listen to granddad, and tell them why. [/quote]
