Has anyone ever tried dna testing ? Like 23and Me or DNA Ancestry ?

Doug · May 6, 2019

I'm going to guess it does have some degree of accuracy behind it, if you took 3 radically different people, like

The whitest possible Scandinavian sort

The darkest black guy you could find in Africa
And somebody else way genetically different like a Samoan or something

Send it in, see what they come back with. I'm sure it has been done. I think the flaw in this is they tell you where people with similar DNA to yours live TODAY !, Not hundreds of years ago, or 11,000 years ago. I'd certainly do this if it was free or maybe $20 or something trivial. I'm sure a bit of research would yield some decent results regarding the accuracy of these tests

RunMaker · May 6, 2019

Well, I'm only interested in it's personal accuracy. If you have 1 million people send it in from Bolivia and 1 million people send it in from Ghana..... pretty sure they'll get 99% accuracy that the Bolivian customers would get great majority indigineous.... and the Ghanan customers would get great majority sub-saharan African. And that without the processing company knowing where the samples were coming from.

So from that standpoint I believe in the general accuracy of the results.

The thing that interests me is the mentally wizardy or selective interpretation of the results. Call me crazy, but if you get results of 60% Euro or 60% sub-saharan Africa.... I'm of the belief that you're a great majority of whatever that result is.... and you're 50% more than any other result you could possibly have (60-40).

I think the Dom. Republic is a good example. You have some people in that scenario who get 60%+ black but don't see themselves that way. Or they'll get 60%+ white but don't see themselves that way.

99.6% Euro.

Thought this one was interesting... as he had a large Greek component.

RunMaker · May 8, 2019

Thought this guy was interesting b/c he took two tests.

1st test said 52% Native.

2nd test said 46% Native.

2:28

Interesting point on this one. He says he feels he looks Native American... but you can see some Spanish.... lolz.

I think this is a common misconception among Mexicans. The broad consensus is mainly mestizo..... and they have confused a mestizo look (namely the guy in the video) with the look of an actual indigenous guy, which looks drastically different. So a mestizo (due to cultural brainwashing) will view himself as looking near 100% native..... when that's a far cry from reality.

Very flawed

It would still be interesting to do it just to see if they come up close to what you think you are. I know what I believe my heritage is, at least what I've been told it is, so it would be interesting to see what this comes up with. I'm supposedly some mixture of Austrian, Polish, and a few other European bloods. I'm not racist, definitely consider myself white, would really shock me if I came up as 23% African or something. Scoring 4% Neanderthal would be kind of weird as well, I wouldn't take any of it too seriously, nothing you can do to change it, if it is indeed spot on accurate anyway !

I'm not sure how others have worked out but Mine was exactly what I thought with a couple 1% and one 6%
Going back and talking to relatives Before I tested I knew to expect those small odd percentage. But they go Wayyy back

If anyone thinks they are 100% of something, think again

RunMaker · May 10, 2019

Are you referring to a specific region....?

I mean, I look at a lot of Euro profiles and they're not really interesting at all. I mean 100% Euro.... not much that is interesting. Of course, then it can be 70% Spain/Portugal..... 20% Italian... etc, etc.

But as far as near 100% Euros.... see those a lot. But I find those uninteresting. Just like 100% African....

I like looking at all the mixes. If you're referring to 100% of just thing, or close to it.... would be damn hard to find in Europe especially with all the inter-mixing in Europe.

P.Rico is interesting from a lot of stand points. One thing I saw a while ago is that it is -- and this is not a joke -- the number one place for inbreeding. It ranks first in the world.... according to what I saw.

I think P.Rico is #1 for having the highest density of albinism.

Well put BAS !

With the one drop rule thing an awful lot of very racist guys like say a BTJ might have to call themselves black, that would be awesome ! I honestly couldn't trace my ancestry back very far, my parents were born here in 1919 & 1920, their parents not born in the US, likely never even stepped foot here, no idea what their names were, in fact I don't even know the names of either of my grandfathers I will or really anything about them, they were dead by the time I was born . from the little I do know it seems my paternal GF killed himself , jumped off a bridge or something in the 30's, the Great Depression era, the whole decade of the 1930's had to totally suck ! Parents would not talk about those times.

I feel bad for my dad, born in 1919, his youth during the 30's had to suck, then drafted ( I presume, don't think he volunteered ? ), Into the Army for WW2...never would say much about it, went to college after that. Worked 3 jobs ( didn't have to ) when I was a kid. The depression and war must have fucked up his head a bit, he didn't need the 2 other jobs as a night janitor when he was an accountant for the electric company. Some people just need to work, not me ,work is a 4 letter word to me

Correction, I don't know anything about great grandparents, I know a bit about my grandmothers, and nothing of the generation before that.

RunMaker · May 10, 2019

I know my great grandfather was a king in Pakistan. He wanted some of that European slice... and thus tried to impress my great grandmother, a royal English princess, with great riches.

But she was accustomed to money and that didn't impress her. He then told her he played center for the Lakers (even though they didn't exist yet) and she jumped at the chance to be with a Lakers player.

And the rest is history.... and from these two ancestors you could see the reason why sometimes I smell like shit (Paki genes) and have very few teeth (English genes).

RunMaker · May 10, 2019

I like the guessing game.

She said Afr-Amer father and Mex-Amer mother.

My guess was:

45% Euro
40% Afro
15% Native

Results: (Aprox)

46% Afro
34% Euro
20% Native

She said she wanted to be exotic, but she "basically came out black and white" ..... not sure what kind of logic filter she was using. I think I guessed wrong b/c her father must be very black.... moving towards 90% African.

RunMaker · May 11, 2019

Like the way MyHeritage DNA posts the results:

Weird couple in the video. Always weird to see a taller woman with a shorter beta cuck boyfriend/husband.

quantumleap · May 12, 2019

My ancestry.com was pretty much what I thought it would be, mostly German and English with some Eastern Euro Jewish from my Dad's side.

There was one Scandinavian component that surprised me. Then I did more research on Ancestry and found one of my great-grandmothers lived in Bergen, Norway so this does have an element of accueacy.

RunMaker · May 14, 2019

This was my worst guess.

For a lot of these I do pretty good... but I had no idea what she would be.

50% euro, 50% sub-saharan

RunMaker · May 18, 2019

This is the first one I saw where I thought it was an outright lie.... not her DNA.... but the mapping.

They put her Native American map there... and it is "Mexico and Southern California". Lolz. Straight up bullshit. This is like the BBC trying to pass off prior generation Englishmen as SubSaharans to brainwash the masses.

A bit surprising result.

39% Native
55% Euro? approx

56-34 in the 2nd test.

Could tell by the picture she would be a chicano ghetto puta... and halfway through the video "I didn't know my father"

RunMaker · May 23, 2019

Interesting the effects of psychology on wannabe ghetto US latino culture.

She's probably 65%+ white and her husband is maybe 60%+ white.... But with her anti-white upbringing she views whites as her oppressor. Thus her choice in a mate is very interesting.

She wouldn't go with a Mexican (likely mestizo... and there's 0% chance she'd ever marry an indigenous guy) husband or a full-on black guy. She goes with a mixed African American/white guy.... ie, she still sought out the whiteness but wanted a minority tinge ... but still actually sought out the whiteness.

And now her kids came out... and they almost look like pure white kids. In the next generation they'll move towards marrying whiter mates... and her grandkids will be almost 100% white.

Interesting to see that as the more money she's received, the more white she's become.

Betallsports · May 23, 2019

Runmaker has a thing for spanish people

RunMaker · May 24, 2019

Indeed.

Got to like this guy for his level-headed analysis. Well spoken, no ghetto nonsense.

But still with the "American" victimology.

What you'll notice is that a lot of them fantasize about being victims as this guy did. He painted a picture of victimization.... but then it comes out to 39% African and 52% European..... and if you go with his line of thought, then he is of the people that were victimizing his "people", lolz.

I recently saw a P.Rican video. The girl was >75% Euro... and yet there was zero identification with the Euro blood and she identified with all the 25% and played the victim role again.

Imagine a guy who is 75% Chinese and 25% Euro..... and he is claiming he is not Chinese.
