    I thought Israel held the title of skin cancer capital of the world. Either way, looks like God’s not a fan of settlers

      Like, I get that you’re pointing out that both places are sunny and people who evolved light skin for vitamin D production tend to have lived for a long time in places closer to the poles.

      But it’s still racist or eugenicist to think light skinned people are being punished with skin cancer For going where they don’t “belong.”

        Nah mate. It’s racist thinking you belong and came from a place you had to massacre your way into owning. It’s dramatic irony that they get brutalized by the elements

          So modern day Australians each had to massacre people? Or do you mean the right to live where your great grandparents were born is contingent on what their great grandparents did?

          Maybe. To reword the original comment:

          “Ha! That race of people has a genetic predisposition to skin cancer. They deserve it because they (or their ancestors, or at least the ancestors of other people of that race) did something bad. Even the ones who emigrated lawfully and assimilated to the local culture. Guess they should have been genetically adapted to their new location to move there.”

          “Ha! Sickle cell anemia sucks, huh? Guess you should have stayed in a malarial zone where it would protect you. Your kind is not welcome elsewhere.”
