That was the front end. Don't know if it was 23&me, but I remember a story about one of those DNA ancestry services where a tech said she'd flub the results of white clients by adding 1% black or whatever, just incase it was a 'white supremacist' to make them feel bad. The backend of these are of course to collect information to sell. Having a cataloged database of the DNA profiles of millions of people, cross referenced to where they were sent from, could be very valuable in ways normal people can't even begin to comprehend. Like you wouldn't think the data collected from millions of users shitposting on Facebook would be worth billions, yet it was.
The DNA was collected to make targeting bioweapons more effective.
Agreed, and after the vaccine no one will ever convince me otherwise. Even before the coof, I had a sense that there was some element of a con involved there.
“Mr Alberto? Yes that’s right, your DNA is mostly Italian.”
“Mrs Chanderpanderduririrruu? Your ancestors came from India 😊”
Was he 1% khazarian (likely due to the russian ancestry)?
Or 1% semitic? I.e. people of the levant, i.e. palestinians, the original 'jews', you know the ones that look like they evolved in the desert, because they have olive skin. That could be from the Italian ancestry.
However, I'll gladly devolve into this drivel if you wish.
If s person spent 40 years thinking they were 100% Irish, then "discovered" they were actually 30% native American, 30% Polish and 40% Irish they would absolutely view themselves, and the world, differently. Not necessarily in a negative vs positive light, but from a different perspective.
I'm pretty sure the entire purpose of 23& me was to dilute the ethnicity of....certain peoples.
"Wow! I'm 41% black! I'm certainly going to act differently now! "

This happened to my Russian / Italian buddy. His dad immigrated here and his mom's parents were 100% Italian.
His Ancestry DNA analysis said he was 1% Jewish.
1% jewish, of a group of people that's 2-3% in total.
Such horseshit.
The DNA was collected to make targeting bioweapons more effective.
We have a winner!
Spot on.

Easiest con in history.
'Jewish' is not a race.

But they only gave Pocahontas 1/1024 % native american.
That's funny, my cousin has 1% Africa. I joked it must be from her dad.
23andme or not there is not a single person on Earth who does not descend from mitochondrial eve.
If someone seeing 15% african on their chart starts acting or voting differently, they wereb already a lost cause
Calm yourself
I'm saying they're inaccurate and purposely so

I am 100% American. I don't need a fucking test.
Are you an American, or an Americant?
