Can genetics cure racism

What you own
46 chromosomes in each diploid cell
6 billion base pairs in a diploid cell ,
20,000- 25,000 ( 22,287- 24,000) protein coding genes in genome
23,000-30,000 Psuedogenes
16,569 nucleotides in mitochondrial DNA
13 protein coding genes in mitochondrial DNA
24 genes for RNAs in mitochondrial DNA
All the genetic information in form of these four bases- Adenine, Guanine, Cytocine, Thymine, Uracil
All that being almost same in every human with variation in only 0.1% of DNA
This tiny fraction brings huge differences with mutation being kind of like a lottery system during meiosis, and after winning it you don’t know if the lottery win was boon or a bane. We cannot certainly say any about inheritance of traits, we can always calculate probability, with growing genotoxins in environment we don’t need mental toxinc like racism, if a person truly understands genetics he/she cannot be a racist. Maybe we should start teaching racists the true genetics, inheritance, DNA and population genetics so they can understand they are more similar than different from ā€˜races’ they hate,or think are inferior and reduce the mental toxin of racism.

When you truly understand genetics, racism collapses because science proves we are overwhelmingly the same, and difference is only a tiny roll of nature’s dice.
