Misleading statistics
"Genetic diversity" is a bogus fake number

You can't even use genetic diversity, as it is calculated currently, to measure races and you want to use it as some kind of "distance measurement", this is not how it works.
"This is because most humans are descended from a small band of survivors who made it out of Africa after the last ice age."
Communist propaganda. Why do africans have 2-19% archaic homonid ancestry and 0% neanderthal while we have 2-5% neanderthal and 0% archaic homonid ancestry if we "made it out of Africa after the last ice age"?

Because obviously most Africans didn't leave Africa so weren't as affected by the bottleneck, didn't interbreed with neanderthals, etc.
This is why they have the most genetic diversity. There is more genetic diversity in sub Saharan Africa than the whole rest of the world. They even have their own blood groups down there.

Genetic diversity doesn't mean what you think it does. What are you even trying to say with that measurement? It is not an argument
Also you are not making sense. We cannot be a subset of Africans because we do not have their 2-19% archaic admixture. Do you understand that? Africans have mixed with a species 400-700k years old that we do not have in our genetics. Did that happen after the Ice Age too? Lol get real.
