Are white people sub-human?

New research is suggesting that Europeans are white because a few interbred with Neanderthals based in Northern Europe pushed south towards the middle east by the last ice age. European whites have 2-5% uniquely Neanderthal DNA. Red hair, Green eyes, all came from Neanderthals as did 0 negative blood. Neanderthals were different species at the limit of biological compatibility with modern humans from Africa. From analysis of surviving neanderthal DNA in humans which is completely lacking large areas of the neanderthal DNA, it has been suggested that humans and neanderthals were able to produce offspring, but that the male hybrids were infertile and female hybrids had very low fertility. This is exactly the same as we see in hybrids between species like lions and tigers or horses and donkeys. It would also explain the very low percentage of Neanderthal genomes in humans and why it is unevenly spread. But that does mean white people are sub-human?

No, EVERY HUMAN is 0.1% or less different from EVERY HUMAN in ANY population. The genes that account for racial differences (skin, hair, eye color, etc.) number only a few. That’s less than a dozen out of the thousands of genes that can vary between one human and the next. That means that, while two people can both have the same color of skin, hair, and eyes, and look very similar, that similarity is only superficial. They may actually be more genetically different from each other than they are from a person of a different race. This is especially true in Africa, where human populations sport a much higher genetic diversity than anywhere else in the world. This means, for example, an Italian and an Eskimo can be more genetically similar than two people in Africa living only a few hundred miles away. And, for example, a person from the Bantu ethnic group is actually more closely related to and more genetically similar to Eurasians than to someone from the Khoisan or Hadza ethnic groups, even though the Bantu, Khoisan, and Hadzabe are all sub-Saharan Africans. The lack of Neanderthal genes in African populations don’t make enough of a difference to change any of this.
