That's kind of ironic.

Yes that thing.
@AndreyichThis is why 19th century biology doesn't get taken seriously in any respected scientific circle, its clear that the 'science' had a clear political bias, this is where prejudice becomes problematic because its distorting the facts.
You have to attempt to suspend your emotions to look at things objectively.
Anti-Irish sentiment wasnt the only example of this, there were military documents based on the same science during WW2 that said that Negroes were genetically too cowardly to fly planes, and guess what, the tuskeegee airmen came along and proved that to be a bunch of political pseudo-scientific racist horseshit.
There is more genetic diversity in Africa then there is outside of it, this is a FACT.
There is no racial 'gene' or collection of genes to accurately account for what we have socially grouped as race, that is a FACT.
Science does not account for Race in any meaningful way, there can be no 'facts' about race because race isn't a fact, its an artificial social construct, a side effect of tribalism.

Again Im going to go ahead and side with the overwhelming preponderance of anthropologists on this one. The happen to agree with @Dynamo Frokane

Damn, I know most people without facial hair look younger. But you really don't look 22.
Scientists have rejected the idea of biologically distinct human categories
There are some genetic population clusters, but human genetics is a spectrum
Western europe and eastern asia are two highly populated places on earth, but Kazakhstan, Xinjiang and western China, Kyrgyzstan, western Mongolia, parts of Russia, have high allele frequenceis of all the traits found both Europe and Asia.
They all come from the same families and traits are evenly distributed thoughout the population.
China and India are another two major population centers but Arunachal Pradesh, Nagaland, Bhutan, Nepal, southern Xizang, and western Yunnan have high frequencies of the alleles common in Mumbai and Shanghai.
There are tonnes of other examples across the world. Genetics is a spectrum and everything merges together somewhere
